Morning practice from Mt. Shasta
Awareness arises through direct sensation of breath and body.
Feel the vibration of sound throughout the entire form. Engage the hands, bringing warmth to the face. The gaze is directed inward, even as the body bends forward. Contact with the ground allows sensation to circulate toward the head and facial muscles. The entire back and spine experience a deliberate stretch. Movement is slow and assisted by the hands, returning to an upright position. This process culminates in a state of integrated presence.
"Feel the circulation towards the head and facial muscles."
"Feel the stretching of the entire back and spine."
