Greetings from Great Britian!
Hello Esther My names Paul I'm 22 years of age and have purchased your book earlier this year :) All i can say is it trully is wonderful, and so clearly described however i seem to have some troubles with the first lesson and havn't proceeded yet with the others.
The stretch sitting, When i perform the stretch and the lean back i feel it in my back but also my abdominals go very tight, is this normal? feels like an isometric workout almost, :) also i cannot feel that extra pinch of folded skin that you describe am i not going far enough? also you mention that the buttocks must not leave the chair, which they don't but they do not stay down you can feel a sort of lifting. My legs also have a hard time relaxing and if i relax them the stretch drops. i really would appreciate some extra input.
My posture is unfortunately the classic s shape misalignment so i have the forward head posture the curved thoracic part i feel i could be inches taller from seeing that curve. especially in the thoracic and neck areas. the neck is the hardest area i have found to relieve.
my hips seem to be tight i say this because they are popping a lot when exercising to the point of pain, and my shoulders have a cracking noise that doesn't relieve when doing shoulder rolls. and... sorry! :) i was always told to tuck the pelvis and i believe that is what has made me have low back pains and hip popping etc.
i'm so sorry to bombard ever little piece of the body but i guess it's all about a lost connection isn't it?
My right knee has this little bulge that pops up at the top of the kneecap no doctor can help it or know what it could be and when i bend or squat or run or walk for long periods i feel this area is sore and it stops me from being active, and i used to be so sporty but i had an eating disorder for two years and maybe i did some damage to my bones i'm not sure. but i saw your youtube video and i was intrigued so i bought your book asap and have had this for the last 5 months. I saw how passionate you were to helping people and i thought maybe i will muster enough courage to write to you and hope you get back to me with some advice.
thankyou so much you are an inspiration to the world! and i have shown your method to my relatives friends my aunt! And soon others and they are getting much better results than i which is great, as some people naturally have a gift at getting things down in a flash :)
take care
Paul
