Postural Pointer 6 – Staying in Stillness
Making the Breath longer than the Stillness.
Making the Breath longer than the Stillness
means the body needs to be completely still
before the Recaka or Exhale is started
and especially before it is stopped.
Equally the body needs to be completely
still before the Pūraka or inhale is started
and especially before it is stopped.
This is harder than it sounds given the
propensity to want to tweak or adjust
the body at the beginning and especially
when at the end of a movement.
Thus making the Breath longer than
the Movement also means making
the breath longer than the Stillness.
