It's really a video not an article. . . . And it is the captured video of one Salute sequence originating with one side.

Based in household yoga practices of more than 40 years, Jeff’s yoga work will include group sessions, and additional content not focused exclusively on posture. That additional content will include 9 Minutes or LESS, and will include THE PRANA PROJECT. Jeff will share therapeutic, maintenance, and training that alternate between the Playful (Lila) and the Heroic (Vira). Look for an occasional Book Review, Interview, Creative Adventure, or Personal Note in realms practical and imaginative.

Wednesday Livestream Wake Up
Look around as you go about your day and you will see people with faces that belie the challenges they face. As I speak to people who reveal stories beneath the surface, I hear of adversities, pain, loss, and the daily battles each of these individuals face. They give me inspiration. I hope to give tools. These practices are tools for those body, the emotions, the mind, and sometimes the soul.
In our morning wake up practices, we we open the do to greater practices.
Let’s make three planes of functional movement of the spine. Let’s clear lympahtic chanel’s and renew join range. All guided by breath.
Let’s go.

Surya Namaskar / Salute to the Sun variation
This is a video of the left side initiating movement in a Salute to the Sun sequence.
Breath is first. It activates stability and sensation, strength, balance, and an active but receptive mind. Then, move.

I. A.) 9.) Laced fingers behind your back
Congratulations! You are about to complete the first chapter and the first series of one minute videos.
There are several positions with inter-laced fingers. Do this one first and breathe nine deep breaths. If you cannot do this, nevermind. And accept the completion of the first chapter! You are prepared to go on to Chapter II which is the first sequence for Breath.
We will come back to Laced Fingers again in a subsequent chapter.
I will add specific series for laced fingers witih arm movement in future uploads. Every position has many variations. Every position begins with breath, stability, and wholeness. In every position we set our intention and move, guided by breath. The work is an effortless effort that confronts pain and learns.
This video completes the initial series of nine short videos to awaken the upper body.

I. A.) 8.) Head hinges and circles
From a standing upright position, maintain stable and unmoving shoulders as best you can.
Isolate the head’s movement with a nod forward and back. Hinge the head forward and back. Inhale back, exhale forward. Make at least three reps of nodding “yes.”
Return to center. Turn the whole head right and then left. Turn the chin and forehead equally. Turn your eyes deeply back, too. First breath is to exhale over your shoulder. Make at least three reps of “no.”
Return to center. Tilt the head to one side. Pretend you could lift the ear up into the sky. Stay there and breathe. Feel the dilation in that side fo the neck. Feel the compression on the opposite side. Take three breaths on each side. Make three reps of “maybe.”
Return to center and make a circle with the top of your head. Turn the head three times to the right, then reverse three times. Every circle is a breath.

“Stop Chasing Pain”
I like this guy’s work online. He’s been around for a while and speaks so plainly about the body’s maps, functions, that you’re sure to like him, too.
