I am still in this world of dialing in towards the spine. It is a slow practice and there seems to not be much room for much. I am endeavoring to assist peeps understand how they can use their awareness and breath to move the prana more subtly. I sense this is key for starting to sit for longer. But it means we do not move much. Today we worked the spine towards headstand. A woman who has been practicing with me for a long time said that she is "getting" the sense of moving from the inside. I could not have felt more delighted.

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.
