I have struggled a lot with pent up emotion and energy .. when I discovered the phrase .. that emotion is energy in motion .. I consciously tried to harness and match my energy reserves for the task at hand .. dishes, gardening, teaching ... whatever ..
maybe push ups were too big .. and more gross motor .. rather than fine motor ..
