Rocking boat within
From time to time I try to find analogies, such as walking on a water bed, to better understand what I am feeling with MS. The latest analogy--walking on a boat moving with wave action except that the rocking motion is in my body. Doing tai chi with a rocking boat is the challenge. I think it means strengthening core and groin muscles to increase steadiness.

Perhaps but I'm trying to use Tai Chi just to tighten my somatic box down to my own body.
That gets rid of my spasticity.
On Friday evenings, I walk into class leaning on my cane and an hour and a half later, I walk out of class holding my cane parallel to the ground like a fishing pole.
And then my wife and I and maybe her friend, go for a little dinner in the neighborhood.
