Most people think of a hula-hoop as a large circular toy to spin around gyrating hips but there is a deeper meaning. The deeper definition of a hula-hoop is what fits inside it and how a person can control it. Metaphorically, a hula-hoop can be defined as a support circle like what an individual can control in their surrounding environment. Commonly, some people have issues with embracing or accepting changes or things beyond their control which figuratively allows them to set boundaries.
Confidence is another feeling that some people can struggle with, but the “hula-hoop” can improve self-esteem. For example, if we conduct our lives within our emotional, physical, psychological, and financial constraints, it may make things easier on our psyche. The proverbial hula-hoop allows us to focus on what’s in front and around us and block the outside noise or the things we cannot control. As a society, we cannot control other’s actions, climate, or time to name a few but we can control how we react.
Perfection is also something that people strive for, but it is unattainable because it takes so much energy to get to that point that if a person were using a hula-hoop they could gyrate for weeks, months, or years. This is the beauty of the hula-hoop because there is no perfect gyrating technique, however, a person is allowed to improvise, innovate, create, develop new techniques, and become flexible.
Concentration is the most key factor in using a hula-hoop by symbolically controlling your hips. It takes extreme focus and discipline to achieve a goal no matter the destination but what is even more crucial is mentality. The mindset of keeping the hula-hoop around your hips despite distractions and disruptions provides peace of mind and a better quality of life whether personal or professional. So, what’s in your hula-hoop? What is important to you? What are your hopes, dreams, and aspirations? How can you not let your past affect your present to lead to your future? Everyone’s hula-hoop is different, the only question is how you will control yours.
