standing tall

quick follow-up: had a feldenkrais session with w today. afterwards, with a couple of adjustments, suddenly i was sitting and standing straight like i haven’t done in years. YEARS. supporting my head with the muscles in my lower back, not in my tired tired neck. i haven’t done this since i was practicing alexander technique with my kung-fu instructor.

it’s all related. when i was being squashed earlier this week, the only position that hurt a little less was to sit with my back straight. no slouching. that felt better than anything else, even laying down.

it turns out they’re all right. don’t slouch. sit up straight. eat your vegetables. and get a haircut while you’re at it!
