CHAPTER

Do You Have a Strong Back?

Close your eyes and just feel your really strong back. Do your shoulders tighten up to your ears? Well, just let them go. Is your jaw clenched? You can relax that. And what about your belly? When you straighten your back, do you tighten your belly? Just for now, no one's looking. Just let your belly get round and big and soft so you can have strong back and soft front. The body and the mind are so connected. So when you do strengthen your backbone, you are telling yourself, I am a dignified, noble, valid human being,. I have my seat. I have my back. I belong here.
