I can't fly...!

Ever had a dream where you can fly?

I've had many dreams where I can fly - they're amazing! - that is until, in some of the dreams, you suddenly have no control of your speed or descent! In the words of my younger brother when we used to push him on the swing, "It makes my tummy feel funny!" Apart from that, it's an awesome experience...

Weightlessness

...Which I certainly don't feel today! I went climbing yesterday evening at Undercover Rock in Bristol for two and a half hours. I arrived just as the three friends I was climbing with had just about limbered up ready, so I just changed and harnessed up quickly and got stuck straight in to it - bad decision! There is a medical/scientific explanation for why that happens, but it's good enough for me to know what to do to prevent it!

In life, generally, I like to try to get stuck straight into things, and for me this usually works but I know that the things I do could be so much better, and so much easier, if I took a bit more time occasionally. I wonder if there are any everyday / academic warm-ups or exercises that would help changing from the overworked, overstressed feelings that us people can get, and make it so that we feel like we're weightless and able to fly through each day?
