Allow your neck to release so the head can balance forward and up. If you were to balance a human skull on two fingers the same way it balances on the neck, it would immediately rotate forward because there is more weight in front of the head-neck pivot point than in back. It is, therefore, not in a state of equilibrium. Release of the neck muscles allows, a corrective forward rotation. (foto 4.)

    If the head were positioned squarely on the neck, its total weight would act as a compressive force on the spine. However, the head's tendency to rotate forward means that it can cause a beneficial lengthening force on the neck and total spine.

    Compression disappears when the muscles in back work at their optimum length - a length that allows good spacing between the vertebrae, centered alignment of the head, and free movement of the entire body.

There is always something to learn.
