After spending the last two months yet again playing the guitar like the Hunchback of Notre Dame I decided to take action into my own dirty mitts and do something to make my shoulder stop feeling like it's gonna fall out! #TechniqueTuesday this week is all about our back-ish area. Video 1 is sort of my natural, god-awful natural approach to doing that guitar. Video 2 is an attempt to lengthen my spine out a bit and pull my shoulders back to their natural place. In watching video 2 I realized I should pull my pelvis under me so video 3 is an exploration of that idea. In review it's wild how much better the sound and phrasing get over the course of the three videos. To paraphrase a certain Funckadelic album, free you body and the music will follow. Never forget that in these exercises the point is awareness and not perfection. As the 76ers taught us to say #TrustTheProcess As always, stay limber and hydrated AND MOISTURIZED out there folks!! * * * #mindfullness #awareness #bodymapping...
