This is a practice that brings steadiness and ease into your structure. This sequence and each of the individual movements facilitate relaxation in the joints and integrity between the bones by engaging simple repetitive actions that gently release tension and nourish the joint fluids.

This recording was made during a live workshop. Practice with some company or modify for your space and environment. You’ll need a patch of empty floor or ground and (if you choose) something soft (like a blanket) to lie on.

This practice was made to honor Capricorn Season and the full moon/lunar eclipse in Cancer on January 10, 2020. In medical astrology, Capricorn is associated with the skeleton and Cancer with the soft interior. During Capricorn Season I tend to experience Capricorn-ish symptoms like increased aches and pains in my joints (especially my knees) and rigidity and tension that accumulates with the cold weather and lack of light. I’m also a lot more tired. This practice nourishes and invigorates me. I hope it does the same for you. Always feel free to intuitively modify for your body’s needs. If you stick with the main principles of this practice (bonding to the earth, relaxing unnecessary effort, sensing the relationships between bones and in joints) then you’ll find ways to modify perfectly for your comfort and capacity.
