It is “Fun Friday” and today I’m going to blog about peanut
butter and jelly sandwiches – but not about eating them. When “pulling up” (see my blog post with this
title), it helps to imagine having a peanut butter and jelly sandwich in
between each vertebrae of the spine, and to lift enough (from the top of the
head) so that none of the filling squishes out.
The sandwich can be imagined as any kind – as long as the filling is of
a squishy nature!
Again, this pulling up should follow the “slightly forward
from the ankle” rocket angle alignment of the body discussed in my posts on “Posture”
and “Rockets and Relevés”.
