Five Animal Frolics Two Bear Postures

Five Animal Frolics, the Bear. The Bear is related to the spleen and stomach and digestion. The general structure is a little bit wider, the arms are rounder and further away from the body. The tissues involved are those of the digestive system manifested in the health of the muscles. The bear movements work the large muscles of the thighs by design. Emotionally, the bear relates to the earth element and thinking. The movements allow you to think about what will help you grow, letting go of constant thinking. Just as you cannot eat all day, you cannot think all day. You switch the brain to a sensing mode instead.
