Today my 86 year old patient looked up at me from this wheelchair and said, "Gravity got the better of me."
I once went to a workshop on yoga and gravity, taught by Tias Little. Tias pointed out that in the martial arts you have a sparring partner, while in yoga that sparring partner is gravity. How do we rise up against gravity efficiently, without expending too much energy, without contracting unnecessary muscles? And when do we surrender to gravity, truly surrender, without the mind contracting unnecessary muscles?
