Module 2, Day 1 • Opening Meditation: Visualize
Module 2, Day 1 • Opening meditation: Visualize energy drawing in: ground & center it • Quote: "To dwell in the here and now does not mean you never think about the past or responsibly plan for the future. The idea is simply not to allow yourself to get lost in regrets about the past or worries about the future. If you are firmly grounded in the present moment, the past can be an object of inquiry, the object of your mindfulness and concentration. You can attain many insights by looking into the past. But you are still grounded in the present moment." - Thich Nhat Hanh • Physical Theme: Extending Yourself • Pose focus: Eagle, Warrior 3, Supta padangusthasana • From seated in chair: o Sun breaths (inhale arms overhead, exhale arms by sides) x3 o Sit with L hand under L hip, palm facing down (press hand down). Take R ear to R shoulder and place R hand on top of head. o Chakravakasana with hands interlaced behind head, making movement bigger as you go along. First go front/back, then do that with torso facing R leg, then L o Big shoulder rolling, front & back o Pot-stirring (interlace hands in front of you) x3, R & L o Super-slow side stretch (from seated in chair): Allow head to tip to R, and then whole body follows o Supta padangusthasana in chair • Come to standing o Standing sun breaths x3 (noting difference from seated) o Half-salutes x3 o Turn around and face chair: standing chair surya namaskars o Standing chair twist o Standing Garudasana with hugging arms o Move chair out of the way: o Adho Mukha Svanasana at wall à Vira 3 with hands on wall o Face front of mat, with blocks on either side, leg distance from wall o Tadasana à Urdvha Hastasanaà Uttanasana à Step R foot back to lunge à Step R foot fwd à Step R foot back to lunge à Step R foot forward à Step R foot back to lunge à Lift R foot to wall (bottom leg of Vira 3) à Step R foot forward à Uttanasana à Urdvha Hastasana à Tadasana.

Page 76 Page #2 HEAD & NECK Resolving Neck Tension DOUG KELLER Pulling ourselves up by our “neckstraps” is an unconscious, painful habit. The solution is surprisingly simple. When we carry ourselves with the head thrust forward, we create neck pain, shoul- der tension, even disc herniation and lower back problems. A reliable cue to re- mind ourselves how to shift the head back into a more stress-free position would do wonders for resolving these problems, but ﬁrst we have to know what we’re up against. When it comes to keeping our head in the right place, posturally speaking, the neck is at something of a disadvantage. There are a number of forces at work that can easily pull the neck into misalignment, but only a few forces that maintain the delicate alignment of the head on the spine, allowing all the supporting muscles to work in harmony. Page #3 HEAD & NECK The problem begins with the large muscles that converge at the back of the neck and attach to the base of the skull. These include the muscles of the spine as well as those running from the top of the breastbone along the sides of the neck (the sternocleidomastoids) to the base of the head.
