    Thank you, Megan, not only is this just what I was looking for, but includes many of the movements I was taught to do for a back injury when I was in therapy. Your generosity in offering these RUclips videos for free is very much appreciated! ❤

    I've been looking for something to do on a morning before I got out of bed. This was exactly what I needed , thank you so much for sharing this somatic excercise. I also thought it would relax me so much I would want to go back to sleep but once I had finished I was up and in the shower! My feet hips and back felt so much relief ❤❤

    Thank you. I have some kind of pinched nerve thing upper back from moving and lifting. I haven’t been able to do yoga because I can no longer bend my upper back and was once quite mobile. I think this helped. Perhaps I can get in and out of downward facing dog again soon. Moving to another location has been disabling.thanks again

    Any advice if it’s difficult to make ankle circles without using thighs?

    • @MeganMacCarthy
      @MeganMacCarthy  3 года назад +1

      First, keep at it. You already made a discovery! Do one ankle at a time. Place a hand on the thigh of the leg you are moving so you know if the thigh is trying to take over. If so, ask the thigh and hip to relax. I like to make it fun and imagine drawing smiley faces with my heels. Any visualization that allows you to "see" and feel your ankle from the inside. You may also choose initially to have someone manually help move your ankle through its full range of motion while you stay present to feel the muscles. Peace, Megan
