Gokhale Head Cushion


If you have nothing suitable to play and practice the art of head carrying with may I suggest this head cushion from Esther Gokhale...

 Here is the website has to say...

"Of all the techniques Esther has experimented with, her favorite way to help people with upper body posture is placing a small amount of weight on the head. This is our oldest and most primal way of carrying objects and it evokes all the neck and back stabilizing muscles semi-automatically. Most students find the cushion helpful to:
  • Find their natural axis of the spine,
  • Strengthen the deep cervical (longus colli) muscles
  • Remind them to keep their head’s up!"
I concur!
