Si se subtitulara en español

Hi Marta Duro: I get this gist of what you are asking even though I don't know spanish, I'll pass the message on to the P.A. office.

Marta ~ Thank you for your post. We hope to add more subtitles to more classes soon! We will make sure to include this class when we do!

Thank you for sharing the connection between psoas and adrenals. I've dealt with adrenal fatigue for years and my psoas has been that "emotional" muscle--and your workshop connected the trouble I've had with that muscle with the adrenal function. I'll be starting these movements today.

So clear and interesting. Thank you Ruth for your insight.

Lisa Landis - so very glad it was helpful and an "aha".... I really appreciate the feedback! Adrenal Fatigue is finally being recognized (and named); it wasn't always the case. Even into the early 1980's, it was still looked upon as a character flaw...

Thanks Patricia Hafen! Glad it was useful.

Fantastic....you are so good as explaining the mighty psoas!
question...in the all 4's position, when the hips were drawn back to heels, you mentioned that the psoas was lengthening .... but then in supine footwork when returning to foot bar, you mentioned it was contracting or semi-contracting. Further info on this? I'll take the answer off air (ha ha) Thank you

Jennifer Schultz: busted! yup, you got me, ha ha! Technically the psoas is contracting on the all 4's hip to heels movement, but because of the traction created by resisting with the head (teacher holding the head gently and letting the client feel their tail reaching away), it feels as if the psoas is lengthening. I suppose it's an eccentric contraction; I sense it as an elongation especially through my spine. But yes, it is still a contraction. Someone put a sock in my mouth!

Ruth Ruth Alpert you are hysterical. The psoas is such a force that I wouldn't be surprised that it would have been in lengthening mode! Thank you so much for your reply. I'm working on a session about low back pain & the feisty p-Soas is front and center. Thank you again
