...3rd Chunk of Snowball Paper...[embodiement & disembodiment]

Disembodied means when you sit around and don't move as much, while embodied means to be active, and keep in shape.
Friday's morning activity made me look further into this topic. It did so because when the yoga teacher walked inside the room i noticed how in shape she was at her age, and how I'm younger then her and should be in as good shape, but im not. it made me think over of all the rededisembodiement techniques i need to do. On a regular basis i go to the gym here and there, and i play on the schools vollyball team, those are the two main things i do to be embodied. what i;d like to do is join a swim team because i was on a swim team when i was younger and it kept me in amazing shape! I would also like to do yoga a lot more because i think that its a good way to keep in shape, in a settle way. i don't really like active sports as much as i like the calm ones, so i think yoga's a good match for me.
i think that teenagers these days need to be more embodied because right now they are'nt. Most teens just sit around and play video games or sit on their computer and chat and go on websites for hours. its really bad for them because if you are disembodied as a young person its harder to become active as you get older, all you do is become more and more lazy. Thats why you should always start becoming active at a young age.
who does better in school , people who are disembodied or embodied? In my opinion i think it depends. it depends because if your too active then you are too busy to study, or when you go to sit down you cant consintrate, because you always have to be moving. But then if your too busy watching tv or playing your video games, you will forget about studing or doing your homework...so it all depends , i think you need to balance it out!
