I've always been fidgety. When I get MRIs, I really annoy the techs because I think I'm holding perfectly still, but my body goes twitch-twitch-twitch. They think I'm doing it on purpose. I can't even tell. Feels like stillness to me.
Aristotle was famous for walking with his students while having his teasing, maddening conversations with them. The old Greek word for walking back and forth (yes, they have a word for it) is peripatētikos. Strolling back and forth while learning and teaching has come to be known as peripatesis, the adjective being peripatetic.
I learn best with intervals of activity. When I can control my obsessive focus, I do best when I take a break every hour or two and ... take a walk.
