Has physical exercise helped you deal with cognitive rigidity?
Some people say that physical exercise will help people relax. I think we can still get stuck because of cognitive rigidity. I think some of us need to be more physical and really express our frustration (which can come from this rigidity) but it is not the same as doing physical exercise in my opinion. I don't think expressing frustration and doing physical exercise is the same, do you? Perhaps doing some kind of theatre exericises can help. I've just started to work with a professional singing teacher who is also a speech therapist. We talk about expressing emotions with the body (which includes the voice). I hope it will be helpful.
