Day 17



Breathing happens in the lungs, but its gentle movement affects our whole balance. Use your hands to locate your ribs, they extend pretty low into the lower back. There is a lot of breathing movement happening there if we allow it. Without trying to change your breathing in any way, notice the gentle rebalancing that comes with each breath. See if you can soften to notice it from the soles of your feet to the top of your head.



📖 Lower back is an area that often accumulates tension in myself, like in many people. I recently got reminded of the gentle breathing movement there. Every time I think about it, it tends to bring a release all the way from my lower back through my legs and to my feet.



10 minutes of mindful movement a day 🍂



For the month of October I will be posting a different thought/theme each day to bring some Alexander inspired mindfulness into daily activities.



To follow along, simply



🚴 Choose an activity. It can be the same one or different each day


(the more inconsequential and boring the better)



🔍 Use the activity as an opportunity to explore the theme



📖 Take note of anything interesting (I will be sharing some of my own notes/observations as I follow the themes too)



If you have any questions, thoughts, observations, disbeliefs, challenges, I would genuinely love to discuss it, so feel free to reach out.



Disclaimers:


1. These are some thoughts I have found helpful during my Alexander journey. They are definitely not all the technique is or has to offer.


2. ⚠ Health and Safety ⚠


Don't choose an activity that requires you to handle a vehicle or sharp object, or can put you or others in danger.
