Spirals 🌀
Once we begin to look we find spirals everywhere in nature. Weather systems, plants, fingerprints, crown of hair, shells, our own dna.
In ancient times a sacred symbol - symbolising the cycle of rebirth and Mother Nature - growth and evolution.
Our fibers wrap around our bones, our fascia wraps around and through them and our bodily fluids flow in a spiralling current. Spiral movements invite sensations of ease, fluidity, creativity and pleasure.
I incorporate spiral, circular movement into my classes, especially my Pregnancy Yoga classes as it can feel very natural to move the body in this way during pregnancy to soften, open and nurture. To feel primal. When our babies are born they often descend in a spiral movement. As the head emerges, the baby knows to rotate the shoulders and be birthed in a spiral wave of energy.
