Standing ab exercises engage a network of muscles within your core that you use all the time. When you do an ab workout from a standing position, you’re working more of the muscles in that system.

Strengthening your core can help you:

🧍‍♂️Improve your balance
🧍‍♂️Maintain good posture
🧍‍♂️Protect your back from aches and pains
🧍‍♂️Better handle day-to-day movements that require bending, lifting and twisting

Under the arms (in the armpit area) are clusters of major blood vessels like the brachial artery and areas rich in parasympathetic nerve endings, which are linked to the autonomic nervous system.

Cooling these areas can stimulate the vagus nerve, which plays a significant role in calming the body, slowing the heart rate, and reducing feelings of stress or panic.

Studies and clinical techniques such as the diving reflex—which involves immersing the face or neck in cold water to trigger a parasympathetic response—support the idea that targeted cold exposure can reduce heart rate and anxiety levels.

Though placing cold underarms is less documented specifically in clinical research compared to the face or neck, it is plausible due to the proximity of thermoreceptors and blood vessels to the surface of the skin in that region.

Many therapists and anxiety-reduction protocols recommend using ice packs or cold compresses on areas like the neck, wrists, or underarms during episodes of anxiety, panic, or overheating to promote nervous system regulation.

This is interesting..🤔🧐

From birth, your tongue is actually connected to your toes through an intricate network of connective tissue known as fascia.

If your tongue is not resting correctly in your mouth due to mouth breathing, things can get out of alignment in your mouth and the rest of your body.
Tongue posture can lead to a foot imbalance and vice versa because the tongue guides all myofascial continuity structures that run from the inner arch of the foot up through the middle of the body to the tongue and jaw muscles.

When the tongue sits on top of the palate, it seals the oral cavity and holds the throat open like a tent. These muscles support the neck, keep your posture straight, help you breathe, and maintain your posture upright.
Your tongue also acts as a rudder and support system through a fascial line, and when the tongue is down, we breathe through our mouth, and the head falls forward due to lack of support, which leads to poor posture and increased energy expenditure.
