Hi Gabrielle,
First of all, I apologize for all my posts today :red: this is the last one today I promise!
Here is the issue: when I quish my upper body to my legs I feel a little bit of a compression somewhere along the first half of my T-spine. I’ve checked I am relaxing my head and pulling with my biceps, but not sure what is causing me to feel that.
Thinking about it a little bit more, I actually begin to feel the compression (or at least I think it is compression) when I drop my head and begin to relax it.
What do you think?
Thank you thank you thank you.

P.S. You and your HYMC have changed my life (and my body) in so many ways. And I am very VERY thankful for that! :kiss: Thanks to Robert too and all the work behind the scenes. You guys make a fabulous team.
Hi Liliana
I wonder if it’s got something to do with your increasing ability to move your arms behind your legs. You could be sensing your muscles drawing your scapulae further (in this orientation) up and inward as they hug your spine and almost press forward toward your heart.
Check in next time and see if that makes ‘sense’.
Namaste
Gabrielle 🙂
Thanks for your deeply appreciated comments! We’re both happy we have made a positive contribution. :cheese:
