BODY LANGUAGE

Our body posture should be elegant, it gives us confidence in what we do. Elegance is not superficiality or fashion, it is synonymous with good taste, graciousness, balance and harmony.

Before taking life’s most important steps, we must be both serene and elegant.  We must not become obsessed , worrying all the time about how we move our hands, sit down, smile, look around; but it is good to know that our body is speaking a language, and that the other person-  even if unconsciously – is understanding what we are saying beyond words.

Paulo Coelho has said, “ Walk  joyfully and with a firm step, without fear of stumbling.  Your every step is being accompanied by your allies, who will help you if necessary.  But do not forget that your adversary is watching too, and that he knows the difference between a firm hand and a tremulous one. Therefore, if you feel tense, breathe deeply and believe that you feel calm, and through one of those inexplicable miracles, you will be filled with tranquility.

When you make a decision, and set it in motion, try to review mentally each stage that led you to take that step, but do so without tension, because it is impossible to hold all the rules in your head.  With your spirit free, as you review each step, you will become aware of which were the most difficult moments, and how you overcame them. This will be reflected in your body, to pay attention!.

On days when you feel out of love with life, your aim will be confused, complicated. You will find that you lack sufficient strength to draw the bow,  that you cannot make the bow bend as it should. And when, on that morning, you see that your aim is bad, try to discover the cause of such imprecision.  This will force you to confront the problem that is troubling you, but which had been hidden up until then.

You discovered the problem because your body was feeling older and less elegant.  Change your posture, relax your head, stretch your spine, face  the world with an open chest. When you think about your body, you are also thinking about your soul, and one will help the other.”

And then we shall feel our inner self  totally changed- full of confidence, serenity, tranquility with enormous strength to face any  challenge  under the sun.
