2 questions

Body: 

Can someone please post the WEIGHT of the BATON so i can add the
correct amount of weight to my rolling pin...i don't feel it's
heavy enough 'cause i'm not feeling it.

Also, while doing the "seated straddle pose"...is the pelvis supposed to be
NUTATED while you're pressing it straight down????

Thanks for any replies, linda

I still have the tube mine was sent to me in - And it says on it 2 pounds weight - So I would assume the Baton itself is a little under 2lb as this would have included the packaging for the postage weight...

I am sure someone will know it's exact weight though

Sometimes you are holding someone else's heart whithin your hands. You can drop that heart & bruise it. You can squash that heart & hurt it. Or you can stomp on it & totally annihalate it. You stomp on that heart or bruise it. It can forever be changed.

i'll have to get some wrist or ankle weights for my rolling pin!

Hope the batons are in the store soon, i'm waiting to order
Christine's other book at the same time i purchase the baton.

Thankyou for the quick reply!

430gm or 15ounces. :-)

Hi Linda,

I haven't looked at the dvd in a hundred years - poor excuse, sorry! But if it's in the workout section of the video, yes - nutate your pelvis forward while pulling up your pelvic diaphragm (which basically pulls up on its own) and keeping all other aspects of the upper body posture. The new yoga consists of a whole series of these - but with the added extraordinary power of the breath.

The batons should've been here by now!

Christine,
You mentioned "the new yoga", is this going to be on your new DVD...i hope!
Glad you are incorporating the breath, it becomes natural in a short time.
i welcome any new adjusted yoga poses you can give us besides the one's already
on this site. My yoga/excercise is a very spiritual time for me.
i'd like to share one of my peaceful CD's that i play quietly sometimes during
my excercises (i also use the CD from your book). It's called "Rise" by
Anoushka Shankar (Ravi's daughter). i burned a copy WITHOUT the 2nd and 3rd
songs which are not so "peaceful"!

Thanks for the help with the chair straddle pose, it didn't feel right just
pushing straight down without nutation.

Can't wait for that baton and DVD!

Louise,
Thanks for the exact weight of the baton...
i may just tape some baggies full of sand and hope for the speedy
arrival of the new batons!
