Breathe into the pain

This advice is simple to understand, difficult to do. MeSquats are a good place to practice this. Then micro adjustments can take place, and the fascia can release its tension in some places, and expand in others. The fascia seems to respond to different patterns of muscle contractions, so when patterns of contractions are happening, they become housed in a structure. Once housed, it becomes easier to make these patterns happen again.

The fascia is responding to the muscle, detached from morality, uncaring of whether or not the muscle contractions are helpful or harmful to the overall body. Accommodating the movements. Preserving the system.

The muscles are partly involuntary, partly voluntary. We have some control over our voluntary muscles, let’s start with our eyelids., then our eyes. Close the eyelids, fix the eyes as is they were gazing in between the eyebrows.

If and when you feel pain, breathe into it, imagining you are soothing the pain by pointing breathe at it.
