Body Intelligence – Finding ease for the lower back, 5: circle the spine on all four’s

by | Jun 6, 2025

In this pause we continue to practice moving the spine in a circular shape. When we are on all fours, or, as in the Micro Pause, leaning forward with our hands on a chair (which is more comfortable on the knees), the pelvis can move more freely than if we sit on it, so you may feel as if you’re making an overall bigger movement in the spine. The spine is, of course, connected to the pelvis so when the pelvis move the spine will also move.
