04. Left Heel Sense

Feeling, sensing and referencing your left heel, is a simple technique that has positive and profound effects on your ability to resonate health and Be your true self. 

Your left heel provides an important sense of contact with the ground and by referencing this area of your body, you more easily stabilize your postural system including your ability to utilize new muscles and experience a new felt sense inside your body. 

By simply feeling this area you are using more efficient and optimal postural patterns to support yourself. A new way of feeling, being and expressing yourself may arise when sensing this area in a variety of positions and activities throughout your day.
