Imagine juggling grapes

05.25.09


We were going to make a video to demonstrate how to juggle Chocolates (see post) and had everything lined up - camera, masked juggler, chocolates in the refrigerator……

Uh Oh …..  then we discovered another Masked Juggler, who shall remain nameless, had taken and eaten all the juggling chocolates !!! So if you can’t visualize chocolates, how about visualizing big purple grapes?

Why are we talking about how to juggle grapes?

To show you how you can keep throwing your juggling balls close to you - up instead of out. Juggle something you love to eat and pretend to throw them towards your mouth - don’t drop them and keep imagining them falling into your mouth. Can you taste those large purple grapes now? Soon you will be throwing that third ball up instead of out, and juggling 3 balls with the best of them. Our masked juggler who had to settle on grapes, eventually couldn’t resist catching one in his mouth and savouring the flavour!

Have fun !

When you are learning how to juggle, learning to throw three balls in a similar arc requires practice using preferred hand and non-preferred hand.  It helps to trick your brain.  Visualize chocolates, marshmallows or cherries, something you love and pretend to throw them towards your mouth - don’t drop them and keep imagining them falling into your mouth. Can you taste those rich creamy chocolates now? Soon you will be throwing that third ball up instead of out, and juggling 3 balls with the best of them.

Be Brave !
