The other day Ava was crying.  She’s only five months old, so she does that a lot.

To quiet her, I was carrying her in a pouch that hangs around the front of my body.  It is a very comfortable way to hold her and it keeps both hands free.

As I was walking around the house, I slowed down my steps so that they were slow motion.

Try it.  No need for a baby as a prop.

Pay attention to how you place down your heel and roll forward on that foot to the toes and how the other leg starts its motion.  As you do it, slow down the motion as much as possible.

I tend to walk with my toes pointing at 11 O’clock and 1 O’clock, so when I do this exercise, I try to put my feet down straight ahead.

Also flat, I tend to roll out to the outside of my feet, so I have to work to place my feet down flat.

As you continue to walk super slow, work your way up from your feet to your knees.  Try to keep them pointing over your second toe.

I feel all sorts of muscles working that I don’t ordinarily feel.  In fact, my hip flexors start to cramp when I do this.

Try it and write a comment below on how it feels.
