Frances,
Someone will respond with a better answer
than this one, but I don't want to leave
you dangling without some response.
My experience with SFQ is that my mind wanders
all the time. Some moments are special and
I am really into what I am doing, but others
are like being on auto-pilot.
Chunyi Lin talks about the practice being
good, better, best. It is always good to
do it; there is always good.
My hip and knee are painful. When I first
started SFQ the pain left after about two
or three days and I began walking better.
The pain then returned, but differently.
Over the past year it is better, but still
there. Recently, I have been able to walk
better than ever, sometimes without any pain.
Standing is sometimes difficult. I find that
if I do a couple of rounds of seven steps
that the pain almost disappears.
I can't know your situation. You can do the
exercises sitting or lying down. Would that
make a difference? What does your doctor
say about your condition getting worse?
You might try mixing up the exercises to
see the effect. See which ones leave you
feeling better.
The weekend is here and others will be
checking in who have more experience than
I do.
Gianni
