WHAT is the Personified Physique?

The Personified Physique is:

1. A method for developing an attribute/quality within yourself
2. A mind-body practice (like yoga or pilates the Personified Physique is based on mind-body connections)
3. A new way of thinking (thinking in layers or you could also call it thinking in metaphor)
4. A different way of getting to know yourself

A Method

A methodology is just a streamlined way of getting something done quickly. The Personified Physique is a method that uses an attribute/quality that you want to develop inside of yourself and designs the physical movements and poses (along with breathing of course) to stimulate and release that attribute/quality within you. If this seems a bit odd watch this TEDTalk and it will give you an idea of the direction that The Personified Physique can take you.

 

A Mind-Body Practice

A mind body practice essentially uses intention and mindfulness to influence the healing, flow and growth of the physical body. It assumes that what happens in the mind will affect the body. The Personified Physique assumes that the attributes and qualities you want to develop most are the next steps in your personal growth and that your physical body needs its own way of expressing those "next steps" and that is where the customized physical movements and poses come in.

A New Way of Thinking
The Personified Physique will take you deep into the heart of layers or metaphors. When we talk about breath we talk about inhaling as "taking in life" and when we talk about exhaling we talk about "letting life go." When we talk about developing "sexiness" we go beneath the surface of words and talk about the shapes and rhythms that make male and female bodies sexy. When you step inside the Personified Physique it's almost like stepping into a new dimension!

Getting to Know Yourself
A fortune cookie once said "She who knoweth herself is enlightened." I believe this. There are so many things we learn about our preferences and about out deeper desires as we go through life and the closer we get to these desires and preferences the more we realize how much life would have been different if we had chased them sooner! However, who has time for regret?! It's time to get moving into our desires and preferences NOW! Mark Twain said "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did."
