(Almost a second drop in but seemed to not be a match and he left. Might write a blog about it cuz it was such a mind spin for me).

Played with some of the work that I found myself doing with Help of Ojai and Krotona. So a little slower and groovier. Emphasis on understanding the simultaneous actions in the opening of the heart and the descent of the tailbone.

Troubleshooting Video Playback Mischief

  • Download the latest version of Firefox and restart your computer.
  • Download the latest Flash Player.
  • A slow connection will affect video playback. Allowing the video to "load" before viewing can help smooth this out. Here are the steps:
    - Press "Play" and allow the video to roll for a few moments.
    - Then, press "Pause" and allow the video to "load" before hitting "Play" again.
    - You will know the video is "loading" as the bar to the right of the play button darkens gray.
    - This will also give you the option to scroll forward and back more easily.
  • Report Problem to the Help Duck.
