Laying on Your Back
from Nucleus Strength Hosted by Eric Clothier
In this episode we take time to identify how laying on your back should/could feel and discuss why this acknowledgement is important. I get it: not needing any equipment or props in order to exercise is often thought to be the most essential/beginner level. Just you and the floor. It's very poetic. However the floor is a flat, unforgiving, and unyielding surface and we as people come in all different shapes, configurations, capacities, and abilities. Given that the floor is an unrelenting partner, should we expect ourselves to not use anything else but the ground? Is that a sound expectation? It is not about "warrior-ing up" or "just get used to it". In terms of health and well being finding an initial place of non-tension and ease is the most essential aspect of creating sustainable longevity. If you start in tension/stress it is difficult to move away from that mindset. If you don't identify what starting from a place of tension feels like compared to what is tension free it will be difficult to create a long term healthy movement practice.
