The Spine- 10/10/12

We began the lesson by curling and uncurling the spine.

I imagined.. stretch, waking up, fingers, spine, arch, curve, bend, lengthen, release, tension, toes, flexing, growing, reaching, rolling, relief, folding, unfolding, yawn, awaken, eyes closed, light, grounded...

After discussing the anatomy of the spine and ways in which it moves, I have created my own image. When I think of the spine, I see a line of pebbles or a row of piano keys. This helps me not only to see the spine as a whole but to visualise the individual vertebrae.
 
The picture I created represents pebbles creating the vertebrae of the spine.
