Spine like a Chain with Breath Exploration
In this lesson we will attend to articulating and lifting each vertebrae while on the back. We will incorporate the breath to support releasing the diaphragm, pelvic floor and other contracted muscles involved with respiration.
This is a quote from Ruthy Alon's Mindful Spontaneity that inspired something I said in class today:
"Just as there is not one face in the whole world exactly like yours, so there is no other back structured exactly like yours, nor one which functions exactly like yours. Your ability to be attentive to your uniqueness can enable you to improve your habitual patterns. You may perhaps still be expecting salvation to come by means of borrowed and conventional formulas, but no standard formula can fit the 1001 complex combinations that your exclusive life has created."
