Draw up the Golden Thread. Habit of the Week - HOW

This week's habit is to draw up the golden thread.  It is an idea, taken from Tai Chi.  Imagine a thread that runs from the ground up through the centre of your body up into the top of your head.  Pull this thread upwards, like a a puppet on a string.  At the same time, however, relax your shoulders and hips.

The effect of this is manifold.   Pulling up on the golden thread lengthens the spine, and ensures the head and neck are in the correct position.  

It is a winner and it is Habit of the Week, which means, all week long we practice this  many times a day, as often as you think about it.  It should help with neck pain. (and my sore shoulder)
