It was hard though. It was hard to make myself do it. It was hard to make myself go to catch. My friend Carol told me: just do it, it will feel easier afterwards. I figured going to catch with a gazelle (one leg knee hang) is basically like bridging it, going from bar to bar with no air time.
It really hit me though. How I still have this illogical fear of height. How an image on my retina can cause me to fear the return. So I started reading about it, they say it is really hard to fix. It is a lot about desensitization which I am doing every day I go up, and about breathing exercises and cognitive therapy etc.
I can't wait for Dylan to come here and hold his "skills to the net" workshop. To feel liberated, and hopefully confident and able to go to the net better. I would never want to miss the net though. There is still that thought.
