I have often encountered nervous people, and I grew up with a father that as he himself would admit and say…” https://www.mominleggings.com/3ur5gk1ab I am so nervous, I could thread a sewing machine with it running!” (pretty scary thought, but funny)  I have discovered that a rocking chair, as simple as it sounds, can help expel some of that nervous energy. Think about sitting in a rocking chair, your whole body is still,(except for a little head and neck motion)  rocking back and forth as hard as one wants! You may start out rocking really hard (fast) at first, but in a short period of time, you will find the rocking will become softer and easier. The peacefulness of rocking can put ones mind at ease. So the next time your nerves are getting the best of you, go to your rocking chair. I bet you will feel so much better after a “good rock”. I don’t imagine this to be proven scientifically. I do know that growing up in the south most families had rocking chairs and we did calm our nerves by just rocking. Slowing life down and taking stock in that present moment is good… As for my father, well he can still thread a sewing machine with it running, but I will say, he’s 81 years old and still going strong. So rock and rest your mind… we all need a moment!
