I’ve found juggling to be a sport/meditation-in-action/ training superbly suited for the balancing act and juggling of energies required for staying aloft. When I juggle I am either focused and centered or I drop me balls. Simple as that. Instant bio-feedback. If I‘m ON I can step back and watch my hands put out continuing displays of patterns and form change.
All of which is good practice for what for me is the real high of juggling — doing passes with a friend or friends. Now there are 6 balls in front of you instead of 3. One must lock into the other person’s timing and flow. At which point you sort of disappear and as long as you don’t stop to think how it happens the patterns just continue to unfold effortlessly. It’s a great way to warm up and get your timing together if you are a musician, which is my trade.
The best book out is The Juggling Book by Carlo. It should only take you 30 minutes to an hour at the beach or on a large grassy area (saves on furniture) to get started. If you don’t know anyone who juggles, Carlo’s book seems lucid and thorough enough to do the trick.
There’s a wealth of material here, some nice advanced stunts — the progression from 3 to 4 ball juggling is clear and logical — and the emphasis on inner states and mindset is right on. My only complaint is not enough pictures.
