Hi, my name is Erin Fulks, I am a Movement Lesson Practitioner and I work with Michelle Turner.
In this video, I share part of my story of WHY I learned Movement Lesson and WHY I continue to do it even though I am a mother of 5 young children, two with special needs, I have all my home responsibilities, and I work full time.
It's easy for me not to do ML if I think HOW I am going to do it that day.
When I think of WHY, my perspective and my motivation change.
It's not hard to stop what I am doing for 5 to 30 minutes and do ML on my kids.
Why do I do Movement Lesson as often as I can for as long as I can even if it's only 5 minutes in a day:
-my kids have more movement
-my kids have more balance
-my kids have more strength
-more independence
-more social abilities
-my kids talk better
-eat better
-sleep better
-see better
-play with toys better
-they even sing better
These are just a few of the reasons why I do it even though I don't have time, BUT I DO IT ANYWAY because I know that Movement Lesson is so much more than just another modality, IT'S SOMETHING THAT EMPOWERS ME TO BE A BETTER MOTHER AND CAREGIVER because I don't have to wait for someone to come to my home (or me going to a facility) once a week. I CAN DO SOMETHING THAT I KNOW IS HELPING MY CHILD SUCCEED, between any and all of my appointments. It's the best feeling in the world.
