It's been wet and windy here in Edinburgh the last couple of days. Combine that with short days and it's really tempting to curl up into hibernation mode.
Today's exercise allows the body to open in the front and back, letting the body feel taller, brighter and generally more positive, in turn helping our whole system to lift and lighten.
Why does this matter?
The more we curl into ourselves the more restricted we make our movement and so the less inclination we have to move or to open. The pattern that our body presents reflects the pattern out mind presents and vice versa. Rather than seeing the weather with a retreating posture, hold yourself up tall and embrace the force of nature. Spring isn't so far away now. Each day gets lighter from here.
What am I doing?
Lots of these!! At the moment my back is in It's wee compressed posture that it sometimes goes into (I'm blaming that wee pot belly on that, and not the extra pies over Christmas ). After a week of doing these movements I'll show you the difference!
