Getting A Little Older? Did They Test Your Body Awareness Level?

Your Body Awareness Level?

Here’s A Simple Test You Can Do For Free!

As you get older they’ll test:

  1. Your eyesight.
  2. Your hearing.
  3. Your sense of smell, if your lucky, as it’s an early sign of mental decline.
  4. They’ll test your reflexes (tap, tap).
  5. They’ll test your liver and kidney function (what a difference the vacutainer made to my life as a farm vet in the 1960s).
  6. But will they test your body awareness level? I doubt it!

Falls are dangerous.

You can hone your sense of balance, and other aspects of effective motion based on your body awareness level.

It’s worth considering, don’t you think?

My sense of body awareness saved my life from a huge aortic aneurysm in 2010.

What are you missing that might just finish you off?

Wiggle your finger! Don’t feel your contralateral hip rotators? You have work to do.
