SACRUM IS A HOLY BONE
 
WONDERFUL ARTICLE ON THE LOWER BACK AND SACRUM

The word sacrum is Latin for "holy," and it was often referred to as the "holy bone." This originates from the notion that the sacrum forms the foundation of the human body and is therefore sacred on some level. Interestingly enough, the sacrum and tailbone are the last components of the body to degrade after death..

WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH LESLIE HOWARD

 Hi All,

Hoping you all are surviving this crazy heat wave in April. The pool in Napa is beckoning me right now!  I only have 4 spaces left in my Napa retreat so i am hoping there a few of you fence sitters that will join us.

I will be taking my pelvic floor show on the road next month.  I have been invited to teach it in Miami.  Then i will go north to see my dad and visit some friends in NYC.  So if you know anyone in Miami or NYC that might be interested in my workshop, please forward this e-mail to them.

Be well, Leslie
 
 

Deep thoughts...  There is an old Sufi story about philosopher-fool Nasrudin, who was looking for his house keys under a street light. A couple of friends happened by and joined in the search. Finally, in exasperation, one of the friends asked Nasrudin where he thought he had lost the keys. Nasrudin pointed to a spot some distance away where it was extremely dark. But why are we looking here then? he was asked. He replied: Because it is so much easier to see under the light.

This story reveals a common human tendency: to look where we want to instead of digging deeper to reveal the root of a problem. This is true of some yoga students who are trying to move deeper into their poses.
