This short book describes muscle stretching from the point of view of the brain. What is the brain thinking when it senses an outside force lengthening its muscles? What does the brain do during a stretch? And after? How long can we expect a stretch to last? What alternatives to stretching will encourage better responses from the brain? We begin answering these questions with the realization that muscles are only tight because the brain is telling them to contract. You will understand what muscles want, and develop a friendlier relationship with your brain and muscles. A spiritual approach that includes yoga. Learn to embrace tension rather than competing with it. Written in a friendly tone. Explains a number of complex subjects in language you can embrace. Sixteen fun, original images help you grasp the ideas more deeply. About 49 pages.
