I have already talked about the importance of motor activity in the development of personality and how it can, focusing on the object through the body or the central engine, directing the mind to achieve any other goal, which it organizes and teaching them not to whims.

Yes, because our mind tends to do habitually whims. In reality each of us would like to achieve results with as little effort as possible, like all machines, all children, all the things of this world. It 'a law that leads to energy savings, the law of least resistance, so comfortable on the one hand but terribly damaging the other.

In yoga practice this mechanism is very easy to recognize, when it comes to stay long in the postures or asanas, because everyone thinks it is easy to invoke the concept of liability but there is nothing easy or really want to be in passive income. The left and giving totamente happen in this case is totally voluntary action.

The body arrived and led to its full stretch or force, will tend to return to sleep as soon as possible, sending several to mind feelings of discomfort. He is an expert practitioner to recognize the true limits and the real need to return the body to rest, as they learned to look how many times he has cheated by our own mind, lazy, habitual or may simply not be determined and focused, maybe while you're having a think about what posture to prepare for dinner.

I call it. And 'that form of bug that sometimes manifests itself in memory.

You know when you leave the office and we do not remember where we parked the car? There, that's an example of what I mean by this term.

We repeat some action dozens of times a month, more or less always the same, but with more or less subtle differences between one and another.

In the example shown, the car is not parked in the same spot. Almost every time we put in a different place (and how many candles each time to find parking!).

But we repeat that the acts are always the same "category".

In the same way that a movement repeated a sufficient number of times it becomes automatic, that is, executable without having to think, a series of movements, when repeated in a more or less the same for a number of times, ends up being carried out without the necessary attention.

Parking a car is a demanding operation, but when we execute every morning to go to the same place, leads to a sort of "carelessness", a mechanical nature, which almost always involves cognitive processes. (more ...)

Have you ever tried to balance a glass bead on top of a relief? Maybe we can!

From this physical condition is called "unstable equilibrium position" because it is sufficient that a small perturbation acting on the ball so that it rolls down the ridge ...

But when the ball reaches the bottom dell'avvallamento, will be placed in a "position of stable equilibrium", because if a disturbance will move from the position reached, it will tend to return spontaneously to its original position (unless, of course, disturbance does not have enough energy to pass the ball to the gap between the bottom and the apex of the relief dell'avvallamento).

This phenomenon, in its simplicity, it struck me a lot when I studied in his time.

I wondered if something similar happens in our own mind. (more ...)
