Breathing

Taylor worked on taking a breath.

I leaned against the wall with my hands pushing forward so that gravity could help me release my abdominals.

There's a release before the inhale, and when I inhale, there's an even bigger release. I currently feel it as a stretch, probably in my lower abdominals.

It's incredible. It completely changed my Gyrotonic work. I felt much more connected from the sitz bones to the skull. It released my low back, kept my hips open and in line, and gave meaning to the breathing rhythms.

Definitely something to try to incorporate everywhere. Maybe even ballet.
