I love this too. Now I have to do some deep dive mediation or EMDR to remember what it felt like. As a kid, my great-grandmother, who was born in 1892 and had some rules, would stay with my family over the summer months. She would always "tsk tsk" me for not acting like a lady. For example, I would sit with my legs hanging over the arms of a rocking chair - a total hip opener. Or my legs crisscrossed on the chair in front of me. Those are my earliest memories of being told to not take up space, though I didn't listen, yet... I lost it later...
