Irritating lower back pain can be caused by something as simple as bending down to pick something up the wrong way, sitting or standing too much, or sleeping in an awkward position - all of which can color your day with discomfort and pain. However, if you don't add a specific lower back program into your routine to address it, the pain will continue to be triggered and worsened by everyday movements.

Reactors: the body is in continual search of balance, homeostasis, constantly calculating and interpreting all the 0's and 1's of information in the brain. (Or balancing the +'s and -'s in polarity terms)

Today's geometry anatomy exploration is that of reactors of the cranium, shoulders and pelvis.

By simply drawing diagonal datum lines of the three layers, we can begin to see the connections between the bones.

Most fascinating to me is that of the neck, highlighting the placement and importance of the hyoid.

It is also neat to begin to see the triangles drawn illustrating the abdominal muscles, and also reticent of the spiral lines of fascia.

In assessment, we often find shoulders and hips counter balancing each other under the eyes and ears, which always seek to be level with the horizon (and making cranial nerve 8 happier).

The fun is determining what's coming up from below or down from above?

The Psoas and Squatting
Squatting opens the lower lumbars and reduces extra pressure on the discs of the spine. Squatting opens the hips, induces downward pressure and release of waste from the large intestine. Squatting expels gases and toxins from the digestive system and reactivates the colon.
Squatting fosters the pull of gravity, and encourages Earth energy to move upward to the perineum. This force can awaken the spinal fluids in the sacrum, open and elongate the spine, and rebalances vertebrae.
Squatting allows the lungs and the heart get a massage, as external breathing changes into internal breathing. Internal breathing helps the heart by taking over its pumping function and facilitating blood flow.
Squatting also significantly contributes to lengthening the psoas. The psoas typically shortens with age and through the common modern, sedentary lifestyle. The psoas can shorten through anxiety and as a result of constant cold temperatures in the digestive system. The shortening of the psoas pulls the body over and out of alignment with gravity.
