Attention


In physical movement, the concept of “where the eyes go the body will follow,” is fundamental to building movement patterns.
When you look up, your head will naturally tilt up and your spine will follow.
If you want to become aware of something around you, the first step is to attend to it visually.


The underlying principle is relevant beyond physical movement.
Attention is the foundation for movement.
Whether it is moving your body or your mind, what you attend to will guide your direction.


If you want to develop awareness around something, your first step is to consider where you are giving your attention.
Building your capacity to attend towards a desired perspective builds attention density.
Where your attention focuses your cognition will follow.
