yes...I didnt check the board for months... I came back and it is still kunlun crazy

I love my vibram but they are not for everyone I guess.This fall I will get some Vivo barefoot for the cold weather. http://nymag.com/health/features/46213/ http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.p...toryId=89830802 I still do Intu flow and like it for the reasons you mentioned but for me it never actually fixed any of my problems. Since doing MBF my Intu Flow has improved dramatically though....just like every other physical activity.

for posture and foot health you should wear the most minimal shoes possible like vibramfivefingers...not some moon boots to compensate FOR you. BTW muscle balance and function is more personalized than egoscue,unless you go in person to a practitioner, but similar...takes about an hour a day and works incredibly well.

Beautiful vids.I like the movement and apparent health of the practitioners. I started Bagua a few months ago and unfortunately I am finding it extremely boring.

proper neck alignment and posture begins at the feet

People wnat to know if she is still coherent pfff!!! she is still walking in heels damn it!! everyone wants to know the secret to longevity here is what I learned from my great granny and what others had to say. When I asked her she simply said "do what makes you happy and eat what you want." if I ate like her I would have 24/7 indigestion! Also should note that the food supply has only been shitty for about 35 years or so. She has traveled the world,seen the great pyramids and graduated college.She was also a teacher.Smoked cigs for 45 years and isn't afraid of a drink. what others said about her at the party 1. she never complains...or as I like to say "don't be a whiny bitch" 2. she loves to live and doesn't think about it too much...when her hubby died 40+ years ago she mourned and then got over it 3.she has maintained a normal weight her whole life 4.she doesn't take medications...that shit will wreck your health 5. she has a strong sense of community having lived in the same area her whole life.She goes to church but isn't fanatical about it 6.Most important....genetics!! she has 2 sisters still going strong in their 90's pic http://www.flickr.com/photos/8017226@N06/2102716389/

Thanks everyone Think of all she has seen....highways built,airplanes, 2 world wars, man on the moon, computers. What will the world be like in 2070 and beyond?

http://web.mac.com/somathai/iWeb/soma%20tai/Articles.html Posture of life By Derek Notman Our posture, how we hold ourselves in the world, is an essential window to our health and well-being. We can do so much for ourselves by simply considering and working with our posture. Working on posture is not about "standing up straight" or forcing change through effort. It is not about holding ourselves a certain way and straining to do so. What it is about, is feeling our body deeply, opening up to it as it is and allowing room for change. We must first acknowledge the tension that holds our shoulders hunched forward before we can feel what it is to allow them to drop down and release back. As human beings, we have an innate sense of verticality. It is this sense that lead us to ultimately find our feet as infants and cast aside our many failed attempts on our quest toward walking. There is a drive within us all to stand tall, to reach toward the sun and align with gravity. Like a flower or a tree, we hear gravities call in our DNA and answer with our bodies. However, as we age and encounter the world injury and traumatic experiences, leave physical and emotional scars that begin to shape us. These injuries and insults to our being create a pattern of tension in the body that if unreleased can begin to literally bend us out of shape and degrade our movement patterns. Instead of moving in accord with the bodies design we begin to move in accord with the injury or trauma's demands. This may be necessary for a period of time until the injury is healed, but once healed we must return to our proper design and function. Often times compensatory patterns of movement developed during times of injury are never released and so we adopt a less efficient way of moving and being in the world. Unfortunately if this scenario is not altered and the individual is not returned to proper alignment and function, the pain will persist and migrate as a cascading set of events takes place as a result of the continued misuse, which exacerbates the imbalance present. Old injuries unhealed grow new injuries over time. We must also consider all the moments of tension that we encounter constantly, but of which we are rarely cognizant. This is the back round of pressure and stress that we hold on to as we sit in traffic, the office, or ride the train to work. It is a constant drain upon our posture, function and energy. Often we develop associated patterns of tension and habitual postures as as way of dealing with these stresses. Unfortunately, once habituated, these postures and tensions exist below the level of our conscious awareness. We become unaware of our reaction or tendency in the situation, we do not see that we are straining our neck when we look at our computer screen, or that we are clenching our jaw in traffic, but wonder why our neck and jaw are bothering us. It is a case of the overlooked obvious, we fail to see how we are in these situations, because we become identified with the tension pattern itself. Clenching the jaw literally becomes part of our experience of sitting in traffic. We loose track of the fact that we are doing the clenching. By consciously working on restoring our design posture and bringing to light the hidden deposits of tension and stress we all harbor, we allow for our bodies natural healing function and energy to manifest. There is a childlike glow and joy that comes from feeling comfortable in our bodies. We feel connected with the energy of gravity and get a greater sense of the earth beneath us. Our carriage and gate become effortless and our movements, refined and graceful. Posture is the key to performance, whether it is in a board room, or on a golf course, an organized and balanced posture is an asset and essential ingredient to good performance and presence. To be open, at ease and aligned in what one does and says is a powerful way of being in the world. Posture is the process of letting life enter into us, opening our body to the constant downward flow of gravity, aligning with it, letting it wash through to plant us firmly upon the earth.

It has a money back guarantee other wise I may not have done it.He also gave me and hour long consultation first. it is 100$ per menu.The first few lasted 2 -3 weeks each and took 40 minutes to do. The more you heal the longer in between. I have been doing my last menus for 2 months and they take 80-90 minutes to complete so as you can imagine they are rather detailed and all inclusive exercises. All in all I have spent 700$ in 8 months and my next program will be my maintenance program as I am almost pain free now. Best money I have ever spent and I only wish I would have done it sooner instead of dicking around with other methods. I hesitate to say more because this has started to sound like an infomercial but unless you have been horribly mangled and disfigured in a major accident it should not take more than a year to be healed. AS you can see in my first post I had a long list of injury and pain and my before and after pics are ridiculous. best wishes

it is a myth with a nugget of truth...we only use a small percentage of our brain...at one time

I was skeptical at first but now I can say that the info on that site is very accurate and has been my experience.It does take effort and dedication to get through the routine everyday but that is the only way to retrain your nervous system...no one can do that for you. Egoscue is to MBF what kindergaden is to grad school. It addresses the entire structure of the body through a series of exercises.For example the first exercise on my list is always one that is to correct foot pronation. I thought this odd at first since my main problem was back and neck pain. AS your body adapts you get re-evaluated and given a new program.Each new program will hit weak areas...for example I was several months into it and when I was given a new routine I realized that I had a severe strength deficit in my right hip that I never noticed.Within 2 months it was corrected and I am now able to run sprints without knee pain for the first time since I was a child. I wake up in the morning and nothing pops and cracks...I can touch my toes or do a but to heel flat footed squat right out of bed.It is amazing. best wishes

Heavenly Mountain would be awesome!

A series of injuries left me with very distorted posture and chronic pain for 7 years.The daily pain was also closely related to depression. My problems were worsened by physical therapy and ingrained deeper by strength training. Nothing was working and the pain and injuries kept accumulating all over my body....first a shoulder dislocation then torn trapezius muscle,daily and often severe neck pain,left side back,right side back knots and adhesions,ankle pain,rib,serratus anterior,left wrist,severe elbow tendinitis for 2 years ect. I have 95% solved 7 years of pain in 8 months of daily training. If this resonates with anyone then you owe it to yourself to look into www.solution4pain.com. Its been amazing for me and my body has nearly returned to its original blueprint allowing me to do things I have not been able to do since puberty.

" Good point mikaelz. I was thinking I don't really want to post or interact with the forum for a few months but still want to post in the "100 Days" thread. So here is what I am going to do. I will just "check in" once a week. It's sunday night so let's check in every sunday night. And I will report on how things are going. And I will visit the site for a few minutes ONCE A DAY to read up on how other people doing 100 days are doing. Take care, talk to you next sunday." promises,promises

I would be down for C-ville or DC.

How much does a workshop cost?

"I have very strong hips..so if you are trying to take me down unless your Jacare or Fedor or Randy Couteur or something it's probably not happening." I'm sorry but that is utterly,fantastically absurd. There are hundreds if not thousands of college and even high school wrestlers who would have no problems taking you or I down..no matter how many hindu squats you can do or how much you imagine yourself rooted to the earth. Also takedowns are more effective with striking and Aikido is less effective when striking is added.
