egg shaped beings full of giblets and lungs

Crazy week, just like all the other weeks, only this one has wiped my discursive thought right out. Along with them thoughts go any kind of following of homework. I guess that the noticing of habits is pretty easy. I was in a few good car wrecks that have left my spine unhappy. I am constantly playing with how to have good posture. I know what I am supposed to do, I just don't or can't do it. Not sure why.

I suspect that I don't keep good posture in part due to what is being called in the Body Learning book, unreliable sensory appreciation, debauched kinaesthesia, and stuff. So my habitual misuse crates a bit of a problem as far as me correcting my posture and Use goes.

I sit a lot unfortunately, and I am sure this causes a huge part of the problem.  I have taken to sitting on an exercise ball as a chair. I googled this phenomena and found that I'm not the lone nut . . .

An interesting article on why not to use a stability ball for an office chair, and interesting comments as to why you should. Interesting debate that has me asking, which chair company these authors are getting kick downs from, I am still all for it.
