It's basically about noticing and easing up...
here is some of her text:
So how do we start to let go, to welcome ease and fluidity into our daily functioning? Let’s start with the body. If we can be easy in the body, then our mind will follow (picture yourself post-massage). If we can be easy in the body, then we are moving through life pain-free. With the absence of pain in the body, we are able to be present with What Is, and that can be a pretty delicious place to be. What will you create from there?
#1 – Just do it
The fun thing about cultivating something as potentially abstract as ‘ease’ is that you can practice it anywhere. So just do it. When you notice you are holding in your body, let go. Clamping your jaw on the subway? Release it. Furrowed brow? Let it go. It doesn’t have to be dramatic, it can take one second. The beauty of practicing this way is that it’s not a ‘to do.’ Once you decide that you want ease in your life, you will automatically start to notice when you are not easy. It might be all the time, that’s ok, just take it moment by moment. And if you choose not to ease up in that moment, that’s ok too.

If this sounds like a joke and ease is a needle in a haystack to you, there’s help. CranioSacral specifically targets unwinding in the body. Energy work, bodywork, Contiuum, yoga, take a class or see a practitioner. Give yourself the gift of knowing what relief feels like so that you can find and re-create it for yourself.
If you have chronic pain or tension due to an injury or structural misalignment, one-on-ones with the appropriate practitioner is a must.
#2 – Move through inner space
Play with deliberately creating more ease in your body and start to expand the places that already feel good. Find a place in your body that feels pain free, spacious. Gently breathe into it. Without forcing, allow it to expand. Witness the movement with your inner eye. Imagine that this expansion is light-filled from within. Sit and watch and be with what emerges. You may want to move your body according to where the breath, light, and space are traveling. You may have some sounds or words for what you are experiencing. Get your amoeba on.

The body can start to unwind as you allow it to express itself through sound and movement. You may be surprised to notice that your chronically tense spots feel better.
