Spinal Cord Health, Concavity and Dharma Yoga.

So hum. We are here.
So hum. We are here.
So hum. We are nowhere but here.

Our joints are separated into groups, wrists and ankles, knees and elbows, shoulders and hips.
Perhaps also our neck and lower back.
We want concavity in both our neck and lower back.
When we have concavity in both our neck and lower back we can rise up and greet the day.

In which of these groups do we retain the most stress?
When our hips retain stress, how does that affect our internal organs?
When our neck retains stress, how does that affect our blood flow?

We can place our hand on our abdomen so as to decrease stress in our internal organs.
We can use the warmth from our hand to heal our internal organs.
We want blood and water to flow through freely.

We can notice our feet throughout the day in order to stay grounded.
We become anxious when we lose our grounding.
As we walk, allow us to notice when our left foot meets the ground.
As we walk, allow us to notice when our right root meets the ground.
Feel the anxiety leave our bodies every time our right foot meets the ground.
Feel the anxiety leave our bodies every time our left foot meets the ground.

In the context of interacting with my feet, I will consider today:

How healthy is my spinal cord per the concavity in my lower back?
How healthy is my spinal cord per the concavity in my neck?

(Yoga allows for improved concavity in both our lower back and our neck.)
(Dharma yoga is especially useful for improved concavity in both our lower back and our neck.)
