200229 Leaping into Piano Fitness

Piano Fitness is improving parasympathetic awareness.

since 1/23/2020 the map to the 2nd fingers staying flexed by observing a different hand posture in relation to the leader to the rest of the fingers has been steadily improving.

today, with the inclusion of the chinese medicine channels for each finger

leader- lungs
2nd - large intestine - creativity
middle- paracardium - heart protector
4th - fluidity- lymphatic system- fluid balance
helper- heart/small intestine

the mind maps the body connections consciously with breath and 4 counts

playing the piano is the perfect balance of the human machine connecting to the most complex human powered machine.
the mind maps at the point of sound (count 4) with the point of balance (parasympathetic awareness) at fingertip connections.

starting with breath awareness at this pos/pob connection:

count 1 releases whole arm into keyed
count 2 awareness of pob on keyed
count 3 release to key surface of next hand position
count 4 awareness of pos/pob in this hand position.

beginning with helpers on lowest and highest notes-port te bra position # 1 on the piano playing field.
repeat 4 count pattern with both arms inward until position #22 -the middle of the piano (E/F) and then outward to position #1.

find the position that is most comfortable for each armii- it may not be the same for both sides
with eyes closed, 3rd eye observations of breath and 4 count connections for all 22 position inward and outward,


the fundamental intention-make NO SOUND AT ALL !

pure awareness of parasympathetic nervous system includes all points where the body is connected to the earth-
feet/hips/fingertips

I am still learning to listen
