Tips for aligning your body from within

Would you like to try a new variation of arm-swing exercise? The key this time is a beam emitted from the center of your chest (the “danzhong” point). It’s important to aim for the middle of the ribcage and imagine the beam shooting straight out into the distance.

Unlike the method from yesterday, this is done without shifting your weight to the sides or changing the direction of your face. The purpose of this exercise is to twist the thoracic spine where the ribs are located. Twisting the trunk mainly involves the hip joints, thoracic spine, and upper cervical spine, so keep in mind that the lumbar region hardly moves. By focusing on the appropriate movements for each area, your body can benefit and be led towards better health.
