Alignment

Alignment comes when we breathe correctly into each of the three dantiens: belly, heart and head. Breathing into the belly is not enough. Feel the body like a vase which fills up as though with water all the way to the headtop on each in-breath. Abdomen, thorax and head then become like the floors of a house, each perched comfortably and independently upon the one beneath. They mustn't depress into each other. They have access to each other but only through regular channels.
