I think certain kinds of movement foster new ideas and connections, but it has to be something that requires half-focus. It's while I'm using part of my brain to think about the body, and the other half wanders freely, that this happens for me.squadratomagicohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07977502780584567298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28553339.post-41302435026573427412007-06-10T09:09:00.000-07:002007-06-10T09:09:00.000-07:00That marvelous that you've had those great insight...That marvelous that you've had those great insights!

I've thought of paper topics, worked out dissertation problems, and sometimes even written paragraphs while I'm walking (in my head, of course--usually I try to memorize at least the key sentences so I can write them down as soon as I'm stationary). Of course it never occurs to me to go for a walk when I'm stuck....heu mihihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08529298049179816825noreply@blogger.com
