Well I said it was simple
. Sometimes things are so basic that we miss them in our rush to figure it all out at a higher level. Sometimes it's easier to access our inner energies and psyche through physical movement or other seemingly external means, like getting our daily life in order, or ensuring both feet are traveling in the same direction. Of course it works the other way around as well.
We often miss the easy routes and struggle on the difficult ones as a result. The intellect wants to make this a never-ending task of figuring it all out. The ego is all for that method because it uses it to avoid experiential learning, or silent knowledge. The mind is a tricky little devil at times.
