Working Title: New Agey Martial Arts Lesson: From YKTTW

Kilyle: Technically - although I agree that this is New Age - I run across this in real life. E.g., when I'm playing Guitar Hero or Rock Band, or when I'm on my inlines or contact juggling. While I'm thinking through my moves, my conscious mind is too slow to make my body do what it needs to do. Once I move to the point where I just let my body do it and react without getting conscious blow-by-blow action in my head ("red button, blue button, blue and green buttons" or "foot, left, left, both, foot and right, foot and left")... once I get past that point, that's when I really start to do well and enjoy what I'm doing. And I can feel it when I've gotten past the point of "head control" and moved into "body control."
