STAY STAY STAY

by Julie Jordan Scott
Today I was noticing how tired I was feeling. Just blah and bland and ick.

So I started to move.

I did a round of EFT (emotional freedom technique- see links at the end of this article). I felt better. To solidify the positive feeling I kept moving.

I headed to the laundry room because I needed to move a load of laundry from the washer into the drier.

I saw the stairs leading to the laundry room as another possibility for movement. I stayed with the desire to be energized. Up, down. Up, down. Up, down.

I ran until it was a stretch to continue and ran into the laundry room. Moving the laundry, I greeted the stairs again.

Up, down. Up, down. Up, down. Once again, I ran until I was tired and not yet out of breath.

I didn't feel like sitting in my chair to do my writing practice. Initially it felt tiresome though I knew it would feel freeing once I committed to it and moved through the not-wanting-to and into the result I knew was right around the but-I-feel-like-I-don't-want-to bend in the road.

I wrote the word "Stay" over and over and over until I felt its rhythm and realized how poetic the word itself was, coming from my pencil. "Stay" sounded like a pair of maracas, it sounded like fingers scratching a loved ones back, "Up-over, yeah right there right there up and down and over.. Up and down and over"..

Get your blood pumping as you stay and move simultaneously.

Stay committed and move. It doesn't have to be any huge physical movement, it can be the simple tap of EFT or the larger tap of the feet upon the steps up and down up and down up and down or the beautiful scratchy leathery sounds of a pencil on a page.

Walt Disney said, "Get a good idea and stay with it. Dog it, and work at it until it's done right." Stay with it, move in it, allow it to grow from your passionate nurturing.

Stay. Stay. Stay.
