The WoodChopper, a Polarity Therapy stretch to purify fire

Feeling frustrated? In his development of Polarity Therapy, Dr. Randolph Stone created a method of movement for the present moment. This form of energetic healing has been called Polarity Stretching Postures. They are described in Dr. Stone’s book, Health Building: the Conscious Art of Living Well, as “a self-help series of postures for special conditions”. One of his best-known stretches is the Woodchopper, demonstrated here by Amadea Morningstar, MA, RPE, RYT. It includes the HA! breath and purifies fire. NOTE: if you have back issues, this stretch is not recommended. See The Woodchopper modified for back issues in this same video series.
