some great benefits of CORE STRUCTURAL INTEGRATION for Yoga Practitioners

Yoga and the field of Yoga and Structural Integration are much closer than many are conscious

of. Dr. Rolf herself practiced Hatha Yoga extensively inside the 1920's & 1930's. She studied

with Pierre Bernard who was a Yoga teacher in Nyack, N.Y. Dr Rolf used her Yoga practice as

a standards so that you can adclotheback problems she had as a result of a scoliosis. Dr. Rolf used much of

the informationshe gained from her practice of Yoga, Osteopathy, and homeopathy to formulate

Structural Integration. Structural Integration shares the typical pricewith Yoga in that

when the body is lengthened and balanced, the personwill achieve balance and simplitownboth

in body and spirit.

"In Structural Integration, we expect to offera cycle of ten sessions. there's

a explanation for this. we don't appear to be dealing with local problems. we don't appear to be dealing with the

kind of skinnyg that you are going so that you can mention, "Well, I fixed that, that's all." we're dealing with an

intent to make a body safer, more adequate within the field of gravity. This requires

that muscles be balanced, and wish to be balanced around a vertical line. And, when I talk

about balancing muscles, I'm talking about balancing the most productiveside against the left side.

About balancing front of the body against the back of the body, or eventually, about

balancing the interiormaximummuscles against the outermost, the internal against the outside, this

is an vitalof those balances, and we startfrom the outside working in, and it

takes us ten hours before we gets to where where we will truly balance the outside

against the internal." Ida P. Rolf, Ph.D.

For those unfamiliar with Structural Integration, Structural Integration as designed by Dr.

Ida P. Rolf is a 10 session systematic process of deep bodywork that improves the structural

and functional abilities of the human body in its relationship to the gravitational field.

through the systematic techniqueof reorganizing major joints, and body segments, concurrently

freeingthe chronically held tension and torsion patterns shall we possibly achieve a rapid

amendmentin structural mechanics and correction of chronic musculoskeletal pain or

dysfunction. Athletes pershapebetter concurrentlystress is very importantly reduced. Postural balance

and flexibility are improved with each session. proathletes, dancers, and

performance artists inside the globalhave successfully utilized CORE Structural

Integration. Business leaders have found that the beneficial results have

improved their focus and a placelight, their vitality, and their artisticabilities. CORE

Structural Bodywork can significantly balance the emotional and cognitive abilities of

anyone that completes the 10-session series.

"that may be the gospel of Rolfing (Structural Integration): When the body gets working

appropriately, the force of gravity can flow through. Then, spontaneously, the body heals

itself."
Ida P. Rolf, Ph.D

at the same time asyou think that in regards to the underlying intentions of both Structural Integration and yoga to

promote heightened self-awareness and optimized human potential by practicing

flexibility and balance inside the body it isstraightforwardto see why such a large amount of people have found these

two practices to be a organicfit.

one of the most'ssues I've discussed in earlier articles in regards to the physical ramifications of

poor alignment become exaggerated in an individual who practices yoga. Flexibility, diversity

of motion, strength Discount Tiffany & Co round link necklace Excellent for sale, and balance are critical components of an effective yoga practice so

when these things are out of kilter, a yogi's practice isn't as much as its very most productivelevel.

Structural Integration enhances yoga practice by hook or by crooks, including the improvementof

deeper, fuller breathing; the upward pushd diversityof motion and flexibility that comes from

freeingbound fascia; and the enhanced awarenessof symmeattempt tomovement that results

from all and sundry part being realigned to its rightplace.

"After each session i'llgo right home to my yoga mat and check outdiffehireposes. i was

amazed to hunt out that my body was literally unwinding. Each session would open up such a large amount of new

layers for me to explore." Sianna Serman, yoga instructor.

Conscious, controlled breathing (pranayama) is a major focus in yoga. My work to free the

diaphragm to permitfuller breathing starts inside the very first session and continues

inside the series of ten. that may be one facetof Structural Integration that becomes an

ongoing benefit for yogis, who locatethat the greater lung capatownhelps in all spacesof

their practice.

yoga3Another benefit is seen inside the most efficientway Structural Integration empowers the yogi to achieve

and hold postures (asanas) that were beyond his or her capskillprior to our sessions.

this happens for several reasons.

"After our session on Saturday I felt 100x better. i noticed a dramatic

developmentin diverseyoga postures as well. My hamstrings felt amazing; i ca nearlydo a

full split! Also, my neck and caners in Downward Facing Dog, felt phenomenal, I felt

identical to there was no tension or pressure in those muscles and joints. you are a miracle

worker!�� Lauren Egavian

the main, most obvious, reason is when a physical complaint prevents the yogi from

performing asanas correctly. for instance, back problems or pain inside the costt or hips could

cause the yogi to bypass sureasanas Fashion Tiffany elsa peretti open heart pendant sterling online shop, or, worse yet, attempt them and worsen the realityor

that can be caemployingthe pain. My work ddresses these ailments will consequently free the

person to practice yoga without fearfor this pain.


if you are able to imagine how it feels to have a fluid, light, balanced body, free of pain,

stiffness & chronic stress, cushtywith itself and that inside the gravitational field, then you definitely definitely

will perceivethe goals of Structural Integration. Dr. Ida P. Rolf, PhD

the second reason that Structural Integration results in improved yoga performance relates

to flexibility and varietyof motion. just as breathing is a few degree of interemainder of my work from the fundamental

session on, so is manipulating fascia that may be restricting regions of your body from

working effectively. As muscles are freed to do their appropriate jobs, and body regions

are realigned to their rightplaces in relationship with one another and that in terms of

gravity Tiffany and Co bracelet and earrings set, you'll locatethat the muscles become stronger, your body feels longer, and in addition your

flexibility increases. With these results comes an increased diversityof motion. For the

practitioner of yoga, this means a capskillto attain postures that are critical to expansion

and progressionin one's practice.yoga4

a threerd explanation for this enhanced performance is claimed to the fundamentaltwo, but may also be less

readily apparent. the house-on-faulty-foundation metaphor I've mentioned in earlier

articles applies here. at the same time asyour body is out per alignment, the rest of the body

compensates for the ill-aligned part's inskillto operatecorrectly. In yoga, this could

mean n personis employinginproperposture by avoiding surespacesof the body, or by

unintentionally employingbody portionsincorrectly. as a result of the the work I do inside the 10

series is to realign each part to its properplace and function, and this restores the

properrelationship among all major segments of the body returning balance and symmetry to

the structure of the body. briefly, when all body portionsare where they're intendedto be,

they function inside the waythey were intended to. In yoga, this translates right right into asanas

that are performed correctly and regularlywith greater intensityand simplicity.

These benefits also relate to practitioners of Pilates cheap Tiffany Bead Bracelet and Necklace Set Online Shop, Dance, Martial Arts or another

personwhose performance depends on balance, strength Luxuriant in design Tiffany airplane charm in silver outletonline, and flexibility.
