A small adjustment for opening up the shoulders, and neck . . . one that starts with the arms.

If I hold my arms in like I’m a sardine in a can, I feel tense and my arms feel heavy.

If instead, I relax the elbows outwards (to the sides), I feel more relaxed and open.

If you haven’t yet, try it now!
"Arms straight down and held tightly in, vs. relaxed w/ elbows slightly bent and pointed out".

This feeling of lightness has multiple reasons:

1. straightening the arms causes tension in the elbows, compressing the nerves and blood vessels there.

This lack of flow makes things feel heavier, and more tense.

Relaxing the area improves flow, and more blood, nutrition and oxygen gets to the fingers and back up the arm . . .

2. The slight adjustment takes pressure off the lungs, so we breathe easier, too.

3. Tucking the arms tends to pull the spine forward.

When the arms relax out, the spine relaxes back,
opening the entire nervous system,
and making it easier to notice the pelvic bowl and lower body.

This attention to the lower
lends stability
and warmth

to the Whole.

"Relaxing the elbows outwards" is one of many postural principles incorporated into our patient education programs at our White Salmon health center. These principles were inherited from from a dedicated study of the body with masters of traditional taijiquan ("Tai chi") , and medical or restorative Qigong ("chi gong"). Although, - we explain their efficacy through recognized medical science.

If you are struggling with a long-term condition, or running in circles when it comes to living your best life, and feel you need extra support in moving forward - book a visit with us to explore how our health programs can help you to establish the foundations for more comfort, clarity, balance, and strength!

Improving Calm Comfort, Emotional Stability, and Stamina -
Perspectives on Blood Quality

In traditional Chinese Medicine, the quality of blood affects the ability to feel satiated and comfortable - both physically and mentally.

Blood nourishes the muscles, and the brain, giving power and stamina to movement and task-achievement.

It represents the degree to which an individual responds (vs. reacts) to events; specifically the ability to perceive our emotions and emotional responses, to patiently sit until wisdom is strong enough to move us effortlessly forward.

Any areas of chronic stiffness or tension are seen as a lack of warmth and suppleness that blood would provide. Even if blood is sufficient in the body as a whole, for whatever reason it does not reach those tissues. Therefore those tissues are “blood weak / blood deficient.”

Although the systemic symptoms of Chinese Blood Weakness/deficiency are similar to those with anemia - such as dizziness, trouble concentrating, and poor stamina - quality of blood relates to more than just it’s iron content: meaning those with “perfect” blood counts may still have similar symptoms, and still classify as blood-weak.

The Chinese conception of quality circulation - relates to the qualities of emotional awareness, groundedness, contentment, and ease. Abundant warmth that reaches to fingers and toes.

Quality blood circulation is not solely linked to the chemical benefits of healthful eating either - although this is a critical piece.

Rather, it includes the consistent practice of mindful movement -
exercise that is gentle enough to draw awareness into the body.

Gentle awareness of the body is one of the most effective ways to relax the mind, activating deep breathing, and restoring flow to the internal organ systems; which can then focus on creating and processing the ingredients for producing healthy, free-flowing blood.

Other symptoms of Chinese blood weakness may include:
Anxiousness (either a feeling of un-ease or propensity to wandering thoughts), poor memory, dull ache in the ribcage, dull headache, constipation, cold hands and feet, amenorrhea, cramping, and feelings of weakness.

Benefits of Mobility Massage Pt. 2 (How will regular massage help me heal from my chronic condition and optimize health)?

"Nourishing Goodness"

Mobility Massage focuses on engaging the bones of the body, increasing their density, helping them in their role of producing healthy blood, minerals, and hormones.

By improving blood production and flow - which increases feelings of relaxation, energy, and contentment ("I am enough"), - mobility massage may also enhance the feeling and expressing of emotion.

Enhancing Balance, Comfort, Strength and Cognitive function with Tai Chi

Longevity arts such as tai chi (tajiquan 太极拳) strengthen postural practices (such as softening the knees) that promote whole-body activation, relaxation, and circulation.

When circulation is active, it becomes easier to notice what is stuck.

As the quite intelligent body wants to feel great,

Noticing what is stuck, empty, or cold,

Naturally motivates you to adjust posture,

relaxing what is tight,

and bringing warm attention to areas that empty or cold -

ensuring tension, and warmth, is optimally balanced.

*

When tension and warmth is optimally balanced,
blood reaches all regions, nourishing them with nutrition,

and preventing and pain before it arrives.

Optimizing the balance of tension also ensures the weight of the body is distributed optimally throughout the system -
improving balance, and reducing the risk of falls into old age.

* * * * These are some of the natural effects of learning tai chi, which hundreds of studies are verifying! e.g. Huston, P., McFarlane, B. (2016). Health benefits of tai chi: What is the evidence? Canadian Family Physician, 62(11): 881-890. * * * *

*Body-Focus & Creative Work *

Nutrient-enriched blood flowing through all parts of the body
is the foundation for the physical benefits of movement, which include the production of substances such as serotonin and dopamine which improve concentration, creativity and calm.

The time spent in mindful motion becomes less about simply feeling good physically, and more about allowing the best life to come to you
(and getting strong enough to receive it).

* * * * * * * * * * * * * *

The most simple yet powerful of practices to get you started includes the
listening to the toes and fingers.

Toes and fingers contain the ends of nerves and vessels that start at the center of the body.

Gently extending through them activates the whole pathway . . . opening up legs, and arms,

helping clear out stagnation within, while improving the flow of nutrient-rich blood and nerve impulses back to spine, brain and heart.

Who would have thought that the quickest way to the center would start at the places furthest from it?

This gently extending through the fingertips and toe-tips may be practiced while sitting, laying down, moving, or standing.

It can still the wandering mind.

And it is one of the practices we encourage patients to explore - especially when laying in bed at night, or when receiving treatment in our office.
