"If you saw Atlas, the giant who holds the world on his shoulders, if you saw that he stood, blood running down his chest, his knees buckling, his arms trembling but still trying to hold the world aloft with the last of his strength, and the greater the effort the heavier the world bore down upon his shoulders—what would you tell him to do?"
"I…don’t know. What…could he do? What would you tell him?"
"To shrug."
Atlas Shrugged (1957) by Ayn Rand
MOVEMENT IS GOOD!!
Embedded in last night's jaw lesson was a subtle downward nodding: encouraging lengthening in the muscles in the the back of the neck, and adding to the feeling of lightness of our head and length in the spine.
. . . In this side view of the skull you can clearly see the notch at the base of the skull that nestles on our Atlas (C1), which moves on our Axis (C2), level with the openings of our ears.
. . . and here, our cervical spine and Atlas (L: Top View, R: Bottom View) in sharp relief!!
