4 Chest Part I

COURSE: the-magic-of-intra-body

FOCUS: This lesson focuses on chest movement and control while seated, exploring expansion, contraction, and side-to-side rib cage motions to enhance intra-body awareness and support.

TIP & TRICKS:

• Expand and contract the chest from its center during inhales and exhales.
• Keep arms open and close them in sync with chest movements.
• Shift the rib cage left and right while engaging abs to prevent collapse.
• Maintain both sitting bones on the chair to avoid hip movement.
• Fall to one side from the rib cage and lift back up using shoulders and abs.
• Connect arm movements to side falls for integrated motion.

REMEMBER:

• Use back muscles and abs to keep the spine aligned and supported.
• Focus on small, controlled movements rather than large motions.
• Ensure hips stay connected to the chair to isolate rib cage action.
• Abs should always be engaged to support and stabilize movements.
• Feel the movement originating from the rib cage, not other body parts.
• Practice connecting motions smoothly for better intra-body coordination.
