How do you fall better?
It’s not a question I ever expected to ask. Falling feels like something you avoid, not something you train for. And yet, last week, after a completely ordinary misstep on a quiet street, I found myself asking it honestly.
I’m okay. Nothing dramatic happened. But what surprised me wasn’t the fall itself. It was how my body and my nervous system responded afterward.
