Place your stick on the back of your neck and support it there using your elbows overlapping it. Have a partner pull and push you in any way he wishes and you work to go with his gift of direction and choosing to move in a way which is good for your freedom. For example…

Patience is a great virtue. When you are trying to control a person on drugs wielding a large stick and simply walk into the line of it you will get hurt and you may not return to what you are used to having (teeth, eyes, looks…) Remember the goal rather than the process and find…
