Finding Flexibility || Relieving Tension Through Movement || Keep Moving From This Mountain

from Good Morning On Purpose

When was the last time you stretched outside of a workout? Well, consider making it a habit today! In this episode I review the importance of improving and maintaining flexibility. I finish with a famous quote by Dr. King. Enjoy! Quote: "Keep moving, for it may well be that the greatest song has not yet been sung, the greatest book has not been written, the highest mountain has not been climbed. This is your challenge! Reach out and grab it and make it a part of your life. Reach up beyond cloud-filled skies of oppression and bring out blazing stars of inspiration. The basic thing is to keep moving. Move out of these mountains that impede our progress to this new and noble and marvelous land. Langston Hughes said something very beautiful in “Mother to Son.” 'Well son, I’ll tell you Life for me ain’t been no crystal stair. It’s had tacks in it, splinters, Boards torn up, places with no carpets on the floors, bare! But all the time, I’se been a-climbing on and reaching landings And turning corners and sometimes going in the dark where there ain’t been no light. So boy, don’t you stop now. Don’t you sit down on the steps cause you find it’s kinda hard. For I’se still goin boy, I’se still climbing, And life for me ain’t been no crystal stair.' Life for none of us has been a crystal stair, but there is something we can learn from the broken grammar of that mother, that we must keep moving. If you can’t fly, run; if you can’t run, walk; if you can’t walk, crawl; but by all means keep moving." 0 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Music: 'Clarion' by Scott Buckley - released under CC-BY 4.0. www.scottbuckley.com.au 'Falling Together' by Scott Buckley - released under CC-BY 4.0. www.scottbuckley.com.au
