E200 - Ido Portal: The Body Knows What the Mind Can't

الوصف

Ido Portal is one of the most original movement thinkers alive. He has spent decades studying the body across martial arts, acrobatics, yoga, dance, and ancient movement traditions, not to master any one of them, but to ask a deeper question: what does it actually mean to move well, and what does the body reveal when you finally start listening to it? In this conversation, we go long, covering ground that most movement conversations never reach.What We Dive Into:1.Most of us treat the body like a car to maintain, something we service occasionally for performance or appearance. Ido's entire framework starts from the opposite premise: the body is not a tool you use, it is what you are. That shift alone changes what practice means.2.What we attend to grows. What we neglect crumbles. Ido applies this principle everywhere, from babies in hospitals to athletes on the field. Bringing undivided attention to even one part of your body for one minute, with no music, no phone, no audience, begins a transformation most people have never experienced.3.The most important moment in Ido's own journey was admitting he didn't have what he was looking for. Not as defeat, but as a beginning. The person who thinks they already have a connection to their body is the one most closed off to finding it. Not knowing, and staying there, is the actual practice.Know Thyself, but not by yourself. A guided space to return home to yourself.https://www.knowthyselfcollective.com✨THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS:https://drinkLMNT.com/KnowThyselfTry LMNT & get a free sample pack https://www.functionhealth.com/KNOWTHYSELFCode KNOWTHYSELF25 for $25 off membership___________00:00 Intro01:44 How Most People Relate to Their Body09:22 Movement vs. Practice vs. Exercise10:27 Life Is for Practicing, Not Just Living20:13 Attention as the Primary Tool23:49 Stop Practicing for Exposure28:12 How to Begin: Removing Leakage35:22 Diagnostic Play and the Art of Seeing37:30 The Ancient Schools of Practice43:33 Tensegrity and the Body's Inner Models49:28 Proprioception, Se
