Standing
In Standing I’ve noticed a tension in my left hip and that side can’t ‘tense’ up as much as the right side, so I’ve been noticing that and just taking time throughout the day to do small sections of standing to keep that noticing active and it’s begun to change - a couple of times ‘my leg has dropped down out of my left hip’ then it seems to go back to what it’s used to but it’s different.

I looked at videos 1 and  2  but focused my practice on the contents of Video 1.

The Backstop: When I began to experience what I think of as "the backstop," it felt a bit like the strong support my heavy winter mountain boots give up the heel/Achilles area, below the calf. As the week went on, my sense of this area became clearer. By including an awareness of it as a live, online part of the structure, the support I got from my floor/feet/legs improved.
