Movement Therapy Is used to Remedy Emotional
Regulation, Sensory Integration, And Greater Ability

For Social-Empathic-Cognition in the Ability to Become
More Aware of the Inner Emotional States of Other Humans Beings too...

Yet of Course, A First Step is to Get More Out of Our Head as Metaphor and
Connect to Our Bodily Experiences in Sensory Experiences of Life That Work
Hand-in-Hand in How We Experience our Lives With Emotional Feelings That actually

Science Shows Precedes Most All Our Reasons For What Our Actions Are In Life; Emotional
Regulation And Sensory Integration is Key In Cognitive Executive Functioning As Applicable

to Focus, Attention Span, Short Term Working Memory, And Retrieving And Storing Long Term Memories too...

So What Does this Have to Do With Graceful Movements:

Graceful Movements Reflect The Ability to Balance the Body
With Agility in Moving in Every Way We Do; Movement is An Art That in Complexity

And Even Autotelic Flow States of Intrinsic Rewards, We May Increase With Balance And Agility Every Day;

Or Just A Requirement

in Getting From Point A to B, Restricted to Sidewalks And The Such, And Restricted
in Only One Way of Repetitive Movement; Particularly, if One is Not Involved in the Art
of Any Sport That Requires More than one Way of Movement, in the Otherwise Concrete-Sidewalk
Ways of Moving Just One Way That Really Doesn't Make Many New Connections in Our Minds too...

Some of Us are Born With More or Less of a Propensity to Develop in Movement in Functional Ways.

Both me and my Sister Diagnosed on the Autism Spectrum With Asperger's Syndrome, Most Definitely
Fit Tony Atwood's Analysis of 'Spot the Aspie' in Awkward Ways of Movement; Often Without Much Movement
of Arms Swinging For Balance; Not Uncommon, to See Someone Looking At the Ground Watching Where They
Are Going Next. i Was a Last Kid Picked in Sports and always one of the First Kids and Adults too that Others

Picked up on immediately With Awkward Ways of Movement; Typically Folks With 'Bully Psychologies' Will Find
The Awkward Moving Kid to Pick on And Bully too; On the Other Hand, Folks Who Walk With the Grace of A

Lion on the Savannah and Obviously Know How to Handle their Body As they Walk in Balance With Confidence,

Surely May Fare Better When it Comes to What Target A Thug Chooses to Mug in a Dark Parking Lot at Night too....

Anyway, to make A Very Long Story A Bit Shorter,

i Went From Last Kid Picked on in Sports in School;

And Adult Assessed as Dizzy Fly For the Way i Move;

Later on to Dance Legend, Famous, And Hero; Just for a Special
Interest in the Art of Movement; Also Commonly Understood as A Free
Dance in Autotelic Flow of Increasing Complexity in the Sweet Spot Between

Apathy and Anxiety; Public Dance, Yes, A Great Place to 'Mountain Climb in Contingencies
Of Not Falling Off the Side of A Mountain' to Attain Peaks and Lasting Plateau's of Autotelic
Flow; Yet of Course, in the Case of Public Dance, in A Super Crowded Place Like Walmart, 'the
Falling of the Mountain' is if You Crash Your 240 Pound-Plus Body into the Other Customers;
Which means You Wouldn't Likely Be Able to Achieve 16,466 Miles in Almost 8 Years and 8 Months Now;

As of Course, You Would Lose the Privilege to Public Dance in Places Fast; my Gosh, Balance of Body Brings

Balance of Mind, Increasing Social-Empathic-Artistic-Actual-Emotional-Sensory-Spiritual Intelligences increasing
in Moving, Connecting, Co-Creating With Others too; And It Works Precisely As an Art of Meditating Contemplation too;

Increasing Our abilities for Imagination in Tandem With Bringing Creativity to Measurable Fruition Now True, too...

And Here's A Deal, i Have Never Had Any Lessons
For Public Dance or Free Verse Poetry Either; What Makes

The Difference Between Someone Starting Out on the Lowest
Ground Level Floor For Any Endeavor in Life And Achieving Living Legend
Status and the Such in Their Particular Metro Area is Perseverance And Practice
As Not Only Did the Social Media Addicts Record me in Viral Videos As my Public
Dance progressed, my Wife Did too; And Through the 8 Years and 8 Months of Public Dance
And Accompanying Almost 10.4 MiLLioN Words By 4.18.2022 This Month; my AQ Score

For Autism Dropped to
11, From 45, When i First
Started Communicating on this Wrong Planet
Internet Site Back on Thanksgiving Day of 2010;

And my Emotional Intelligent Quotient As Measure
On Available Tests Went From the Mid Fifties to 95 As well in

The Summer of 2013 too...

Science Shows Movement And other Art Activities in Meditative
And Autotelic Flow Work as Therapy to Regulate Emotions and Senses...

And Even 'Tony Atwood', A Real Expert on Asperger's Syndrome, Said the Only
Real Therapy He Could Offer for Emotional Regulation Was Cognitive Behavioral Therapy;

What He Missed
out on is the
Square Root one
Problem; Our Emotions
Flow Through the Feeling Sensory
Experiences of Our Body; So Balance

The Body and Balance the Mind; And For me at
least, i Chose not to Go the Lesson Route; i 'Listened'
to My Body And the Feelings Senses of Balance that Can Never Meet
Perfection; And Will Always Be Improved Across A Lifespan as Long as We Do It Now...

My First Psychiatrist, Who First Diagnosed me With Asperger's Syndrome in 2008, Was So Impressed
in 2013, With What my Own Style of Movement Therapy And Connecting Words With Emotions in Feeling
And Sensing Ways through Free Verse Poetry, Also with No Lessons Did For me; That He Said i inspired
him in Part to Quit His Practice And Teach All Natural Movement Therapy in A Hospital in South Florida in 2016...

Dance is the Oldest Form of Human Social-Reciprocal Communication

In All the Non-Verbal Ways We communicate With Each Other, Including Even
a Dance of Facial Muscles This Way With Each Other too; Non-Verbal Communication
Comprises Around 65 Percent of Our Communication With Others too in Non-Verbal Ways...

Modern Science Shows the Cerebellum Associated With Motor Coordination And movement
Is Very Much Involved in Social-Empathic Intelligence As Well; Actually Housing 50 Percent
of the Neurons of Our Brains too; Use it or Lose it Applies to All Stuff Life; Sitting Behind

A Screen Leaves

Behind So much
Of Our Human Potential,

If We Really Get Out and About
And Dance And Sing Free With Each
Other in Ways of Free Play That Slay Fear

And Open Up More Avenues for Inhaling
Peace and Exhaling LoVE iN Total on Task Laser
Focus too; Persevering Everyday in Acts of Giving,
Sharing, Caring, and Healing ThiS Way With Least Harm for All...

As i Love to Do Dancing A Tight Rope of Dance on Terrestrial Land,
Always RiSinG Higher in the Sweet Spot Tween Anxiety and Apathy
With Greater Complexities Achieved Every Day; Same As Dancing This

Keyboard

With Human
Abstract Symbols
to Bring the Organic
Emotional And Sensory
Experiences of Life Alive
in These Symbols Shared at
the Speed of Love Fitting All of
me in this Fiber Optic Cable As Avatar and even
More of Soul at the Speed of Love Around the Globe...

With Human Imagination And Creativity There Really Are no Limits...

It's True, in Someways in this Life Now, There Are No Limits; only Possibilities

With New
Dances
And Songs
Free As Wings
FLY in Balance With Wind This Way...

Yeah, It's True, 'Wax on Wax Off' With
Always A New Color of Wax Eternally Now to Do...

in Balance...

Hey, With the Grace
of Balance the Egyptians
Moved Huge Stones to Build
The Pyramids; All Of Nature Operates
Best in Balance; And Humans Are no Exclusion;
Except, Sadly those With An Illusion that We Are Not
Just another Integral Part of Nature for What i Describe as God

Now or Not...

Some Folks Dance,
Some Folks Do Not;

Philosophy From the
Guardians of the Galaxy Volume II;

Nature Plays and Slays Fear; Don't
Become Another 'Statistic only' As 'They' only 'Say'...

Dance and Sing Free...

Works for me at least;

And i Surely Wasn't Originally
Cut Out to Dance And Sing With
So Many Gross Motor and Fine Motor Challenges
in Life and oh Yeah, Not Speaking Until 4, Another one too...

(i Still Have the Handwriting of 'A Doctor'; Practically Undecipherable too)

It's Worth Noting; i Have the Ability to Output Now too With SMiLES;
And Even Be Creative; Humans Have Incredible Potentials When They Seek,

Find,

And Actually

Practice them

Transforming
Themselves into
New Creations of Balancing Life...

This Gift, This Grace, This Balance,
Finally Realized, Reborn ThiS Way for Real...

It's Also Worth Noting, All that Movement Therapy
Helped to Increase my Leg Strength in Leg Pressing
From 500 Pounds at age 53 up to 1520 Pounds Now
Reaching 62 on 6.6.2022; All Documented And Empirically
Evidenced As Such...

As i Surely Can Still
Be Machine As

Much As Art,
if i Restrict myself
in the Way i Did Before...

Keeping in Mind that Yes
Mileage of Being Human
Varies Based on Make and
Model of Vessel and Vehicle of Human Beings Now...

In other Words, Just because this Works for me; Doesn't
Mean it Will Necessarily Work for Some Others Who Are Different too...

Yet Again, though,

Science Shows it

is Effective Therapy for Some Folks..:)

I'm as graceful as a swan.

A drunken swan, with an injured foot, on land.

Possibly, it's due to my long history of frequent inner ear problems.

The only time I've ever really felt almost graceful is when I've gone swimming. Water seems to make anything look more graceful and beautiful. But I have to be very careful not to get water in my ears.

I've actually forgotten how to walk properly but I can remember being quite fast and light on my feet.

At the moment though I limp, I've got poor balance and I'm rigid. My physiotherapist commented that I don't have a natural sway of my hips and shoulders.

At the moment I'm practicing balance by walking backwards on my treadmill and that is actually working and it helps with posture and all kinds of things.

I still can't walk forwards though.
