I was thinking on your spiral up/down movement. Many American public toilet stalls should be widened. The closeness of the stall door and placement of toilet paper roll holder, often make that type movement hard to do. The challenged/wheelchair stall, which is one of many stalls, allows for it. But not the typical stalls. Maybe spiral movement thinking should be considered when these( public) toilets are designed.

Ah, well they are trying to get by with the least amount is space as possible. Every square foot is costly real estate. I teach different techniques for spaces and situations like that.

I'm 61 so I'm not that old. But as a one time athlete who always had great Balance I've notice the last couple of years that I have some unsteadiness. I can't stand on one foot steadily anymore for one. Also when we had a clear night the other night my wife said look at all of the stars! So I looked up and immediately lost my balance! I was shocked! And the "2x4", I do ok on that with eyes open, but it's weird, I do better going backwards lol!
@Futurelifenow7 жыл бұрын
It takes purposeful engagement with balance and in unique ways to keep it going. I tired of the idea that standing on one leg is going to be enough but it is a great way to "test" how we are doing. As we age and do less varied movements, we tend to use our eyes to create balance. But we want the entire system to know about righting itself with ease. It sounds like when you looked up, your head moved but the rest of your body didn't know how to accommodate that change. And it is funny that you walk the "2x4" backwards better than forwards. Keep exploring! ~ Cynthia

@Futurelifenow Жыл бұрын
If you can spin on the balls of your feet, the method is safe with two total knee replacements. You do need around 110% of flexion (bending) in the knees to use this method. Your weight should not be the major issue unless you are shorter as well and then that could be an additional item to work with. We wish you well in your experiments on finding safer and easier ways to get up and down.

@Futurelifenow7 жыл бұрын
John - Sorry for the delay. This comment was hidden from my view. But I have found it now. Closing eyes is considered a high level of balance. You want to work with improving your balance with your eyes open and get very skillful at that. Then you could start to play in sitting with your eyes closed and moving a tiny bit forward and back or left and right. With MS, often the spine, ribs, and ankles/feet become stiff. Reminding these areas that they can move is vital. I have a lot more short videos and audios that address this issue in my subscription service. Let me know and I will forward that link to you. Also if you want to referral to a Feldenkrais practitioner, tell me where you live and I will see if I can get you connected. ~ Cynthia

This is hard for me because I've had a kidney transplant and the medications I take, make me unsteady. I really like the tip about the toe socks though. I think I'll get some. Because I'm always barefoot in the house or wearing slipper socks.👍

Medications can cause challenges. Start with the easier items. To practice walking the line, use some trekking poles. They are great for walking in general.

Sock feet are not barefoot. I don't get it. You are still blocking sensory integration with socks.

True, some sensory information is blocked by socks. It's important to meet people where they are and most people are going to wear shoes. Toe socks in shoes (or without) is a better option than no change at all. The cloth of the toe socks actually moves the toes apart, coaxing a return to the natural shape of the foot. People with bunions sometimes get tremendous relief from bunions just with toe socks. And in toes socks all the articulations of the bones of the feet can still be made in socks (but not with a supportive shoe). We win some, we lose some depending on the choices made.

I only wear socks when it's cold inside.
