FREEING THE MIND
AND THE MUSCLES

The story Of a recent play which New
Workers have been privileged to see is
the story of most of US il we but rec
ognized II. We all long to be free-not
free of laws and conventions that are
necessary to society. but free of mind
and body. to be ourselves and TO make
the most Of ourselves.
Sincerity and simplicity arc the first
requisites to that end. and the first step
toward it Is to establish rhythm, rhythm
between mind and body. Commence by
learning to breathe rhythmcally. Close
the eyes, breathe evenly and deeply, at
the same time clearing the mind of all
aggressive thoughts and allowing no new
ones to come to 1t. Train yourself out of
worry. Keep the mind receptive and
open. Clear 1t Of all the rubbish that has
been stored away, opinions Of others,
tended to make you disconnected or
helped to blurr your vision. No one who
starts in seriously to effect this mind
clearing can fail to be amazed at the
amount and character of the waste mat
ter stored there, or at the uplifting eff
feet getting rid of it has upon her.
How was 1t possible to be free: free to
think. move and have your being when
your mind was blocked with the opinions
and pettinesses Of others. Real freedom
centrate on a single subject, to think
clearly and concisely about it, obvious to
previous Impressions and without undue
nervous bodily strain So, you see. after
all, to be really free one must be free in
both body and mind.
Do you know how the ma jority of per-
sons twist and comfort the facial muscles,
open and shut the hands. move the feet
about when they attempt to think out a
problem? If they knew freedom there
would be no superf1uous nervous tension.
Most of us keep the spine rigid. and
even when relaxing 1t quite closely re-
sembles a rod of iron in stiffness Now
the spine affects so many of the muscles
and Is so large a nervous center that 1t
is most important 1t should have all pos
sible freedom, each section or vertebra
being separate. Let the spine be sup
port, but without tenseness. Relax and
then teach yourself to do everything
quietly and naturally, exerting whatever
will Is necessary to direct action and
whatever energy is required to perform
the action-no more
Come out of yourself and be free. A
well known writer gives very excellent
advice: Hurry with your muscles. not
with your nerves." Make both your mus
cles and your nerves servants. Never let
them dictate to you. After a while ii
will not be necessary to hold yourself in
restraint when annoyances come or to
exert force to keep your nerves from
running away with you. Control will
supersede suppression when you have
found the joy of actually being free-and
then you will have found the wonderful
foundation of youth.
