Blind Again

So I attempted my Tai Chi short form with my eyes closed again.  Knowing what to expect and preparing myself mentally is half the battle I think…but it was still far from perfect.  This go around I was definitely able to center myself better.  I didn’t feel so off balance.  And there was no extreme disorientation and dizziness like last time.  I still felt compelled at times to “reach out” with my other senses…but that immediately threw me off.  As long as I could stay grounded and centred, both physically and mentally, I was able to stay balanced…at least better than the last attempt.  I’m not going to lie.  It was still very difficult.  But I can see how this exercise, over time and with lots of practice, will be very beneficial.
