Posture-lating with Posture Ellie
Maintain a calm breath, always
In this episode, Ellie touches upon (just the surface of) how important the breath is and why it's integral to well executed posture exercises. The breath is both a symptom of and remedy to nervous system dysregulation. Many people are chronically breath-holding whilst under stress and many people are chronically mouth and/or over breathing whilst under stress. We don't want our posture exercises to be more stressful for our body and nervous system, and we need to use the breath as a tool to create calm, grounded energy which brings the body into ease and alignment.
The book I mention is Breath by James Nestor. If you're ready for a heavier read, try The Breathing Cure by Patrick Mckeown.
