A breath token is a breathing exploration that I develop for friends & clients and send out as a gift.
Rolling from shoulderblade to shoulderblade
Yesterday I was walking in the forest where I live and leant against a tree. I could feel the bones of my shoulderblades against the wood and began rolling from one shoulderblade to the other. As my sensation of my upper back increased, I rolled from one outer tip of the shoulder blade to the other, as if I were sensing my wingspan. The rolling motion and the gentle stretch of the back muscles softened and opened my chest. I imagined creating space for my heart, enveloped by the lungs, and the heart expanding, pulsing more freely against the pleura and the diaphragm. It made me glad and so I invite you to join me. You can do this pretty much anywhere, against a wall, the back of a sofa or a seat on the train. And, of course, back to back with a partner.
Benefits I experienced were:
– opening of the chest
– free breathflow
– feeling of strength, physically and emotionally
– positive mindset
– uprightness
There are surely other benefits for you to discover. If you have any questions or feedback please contact me.
