quote: ORIGINAL: myotherself I'm a lefty too, and am phenomenally clumsy! I have bumps and bruises all over from falling over and walking into things. At the moment I have a bit of a goose egg on my scalp from standing up quickly in an under-stairs cupboard and bouncing my skull off the door frame [:(] A couple of years ago I was talking to our Special Needs coordinator at school who was sitting in on some student assessments for dyspraxia. Just for fun, I did some of the tests too. Some of the kids who came away with a diagnosis of dyspraxia scored better in the tests than I did, lol! ETA: I was playing with a friend a few years ago in a club. He fastened my wrists to a free-standing St Andrew's Cross. After about 10 minutes I started to drift into subspace, and got a bit giggly. Then REALLY giggly. Then laughing like a loon (it's the endorphins, honest!). I slumped against the cross, lost my balance and the whole thing tipped over. Yup, clumsy! [:D] I constantly bump my head on cabinets, especially when I'm emptying the dishwasher and I have the cabinet doors open right above the dishwasher. I am convinced that the world is created for a right handed world and thus being a lefty, I'm just not going to be able to use everything as normally as a right handed person. Everything will always feel weird or clumsy or different in some way to me. I mean, even writing on a piece of paper, I basically have to hold the paper upside down. I have cashiers hand me the receipt to sign and they want to hold onto it while I sign. I have to yank it away from their hands so I can sign it. It's sooooo annoying. Haha...the tipping cross. Yup, I've done that too! ETA: I just remembered about two days ago, I was cleaning out and organizing my cabinets. Above the cabinets I have some large platters that I either was given as gifts or I bought while overseas. well, of course, one of them comes crashing down all around me. I just covered my head with my hands and closed my eyes and waited for the crashing to stop lol. Thankfully I wasn't hit by any of the glass and most of it fell into the sink below. I was pretty lucky that time. Master just laughs and shakes his head and asks me if I'm ok. When we're on the phone and I start swearing or whimpering he will ask me how I hurt myself this time. It's become pretty normal around here for him.

quote: ORIGINAL: littlewonder quote: Living alone, that was frightening feeling like the old women in that commercial with the, "help! I've fallen and can't get up," lol. Thought I would die laying there and my cats would eventually eat my face. I felt like that when I fell down the flight of stairs and was dazed. I thought to myself I could be laying here dead for hours or a day till Master comes over. No one else would ever find my body. That kinda freaks me out these days ever since one of my favorite aunts died in her home and no one found her body for a month. She had become a shut in over the past few years before her death due to depression and her health and would not allow anyone to come in or answer her phone. So after awhile, everyone stopped trying to see her or talk to her. It really made me think as I become older and told Master about how it freaked me out. Thankfully he said that as long as he's around that would never happen. But still, even being dead for a day by myself in my home is a bit depressing as well. Well, I'm still searching for my "one." You would think being a switch would make it a bit easier, lol. Anyway, yea, I'm a bit of shut in for those same reasons as your aunt. Sometimes I won't talk to or see anyone for days. So I'm extremely careful on the stairs, taking a shower, etc. I do not want to become a CSI episode, LOL!

Yeah. Before I met Master and I only had my daughter, I would always think "when she goes off to college and leaves me alone, what then?"

I'm a lefty also, but don't consider myself clumsy. I do, however, wake up with random bruises so maybe I'm so clumsy I don't even realize when I get hurt? I used to be extremely clumsy when younger, but believe it was due to my large feet that I hadn't yet grown into.

kalikshama -> RE: Someone like me... (1/20/2013 3:33:52 PM)
I wonder if yoga would increase body awareness and decrease clumsiness? Are there any serious yogis here who are clumsy? The other thing that came to mind was mindfulness.

LMAO Oh my goodness LafayetteLady! I laughed so hard when I read this... you have no idea how much I can relate!! I'm glad you lived to write about it!!! : ) quote: ORIGINAL: LafayetteLady ... Thought I would die laying there and my cats would eventually eat my face.

I used to do yoga when I was younger. It never changed anything and it's one of the reasons I quit. I was too clumsy for it lol.

kalikshama -> RE: Someone like me... (1/20/2013 3:58:49 PM)
How often did you practice yoga and where were the classes? I emphasize very different things depending on whether I am teaching at a gym vs a yoga center.

angelikaJ -> RE: Someone like me... (1/20/2013 5:35:10 PM)
Clumsy here as well, so you are not alone.

A serious clutz here. Serious. Always dropping things, always bumping my head on things, always bumping body parts on things, always bruised. Before I met the Mister I fell down the stairs of my apartment complex - it was only 4 steps but I managed to seriously wipe out both ankles, leaving me wheelchair bound for awhile, then progressed to a walker, then a cane...all the while in at-home then external physical therapy. Thank God I didn't know him then; it took about 6 months to walk normally again and was crazy-painful. Talk about feeling left for dead - I had left my cell phone in my apartment so I crawled back up the stairs and down the walkway with sounds of pain coming out of me that I had never heard before, until I made it inside and called a friend who came over and then called 911. As of yet my bumps and bruises have not affected my service to him. I still have residual issues from that stair fall - I screwed up my sacro-iliac join (in the pelvis) so I need chiropractic care to put everything back together every few months. But I manage to serve him and give him what he wants regardless of what sort of clutz-pain I'm in.

i tried yoga as well. didn't work out so well for me. i've been considering something called somatics. it is supposed to help with muscle memory and overall body awareness. and it helps with posture. i did it when i was in college ( just a one semester class ) but i don't remember the over all results. does anyone know anything about this?

I practiced yoga for about 5 years. I took classes for a little while but I got annoyed that I could never the asanas well enough for the instructor who was constantly telling me to arch my back more, roll my shoulders this way and such. I then started just doing yoga at home with DVDS. But I got out of the habit. I haven't done yoga now in many years. I thought about joining a yoga place here near me but I really do hate group exercise. I usually find the people extremely distracting and the new agey music just drives me crazy.

Not knowing, Breagha, I googled and came up with this. Sounds interesting. http://hannasomatics.com/index.php/about_somatics/ways_to_practice/

As a kid i used to be very klutzy once i fell up the stairs and banged my chin so hard i needed 4 stiches. I have mostly ou grown it i think. I said mostly the other day i was walking out of my bedroom hit my shoulder on the open door of the tv closet and wrenched my back. I still have my moments, and as long as i don't get hurt or break anything or hurt myself Master thinks it's cute. All i can say is like the old saying Monday's child is fair of face, Tuesday's child is full of grace... i an not a Tuesday child. I looked it up. Matt's littlone
