Improve the mobility of the liver region (advanced).

Purpose: To free up restrictions in the liver region by performing an advanced version of Organ Region Mobility Exercises Stage 1.

Schedule: Perform Organ Region Mobility Exercise Stages 9 and 10 together as a set. This set of exercises should be performed only if you are flexible enough to comfortably execute the hand positions and exercise movements as laid out in the instructions. If you are not quite ready yet, simply continue your self treatment until you are ready to try again at a later date. This exercise set should be performed on two separate days.

Start: Begin by sitting down in a comfortable, upright position with your feet placed firmly on the ground.

Step 1: Place your left and right hands as follows:

Left Hand: position behind your right ribcage.
Right Hand: place over your right ribcage to cover your liver.

Step 2: Exert gentle pressure between your hands so that you can feel your hands and body move as one piece. Bend the liver region forward, and perform the Core Pump three times in your liver region. Bend further forward and repeat.

Step 3: Repeat Step 2, this time bending the liver region backward.

Step 4: Repeat Step 2, this time turning the liver region to the right.

Step 5: Repeat Step 2, this time turning the liver region to the left.

Step 6: Repeat Step 2, this time side-bending the liver region to the right.

Step 7: Repeat Step 2, this time side-bending the liver region to the left.

End: Rest when all steps have been completed.

Observe: Observe your breathing and the ease of your trunk movements. Notice the increased mobility of your liver region.

Progress: Continue on to Organ Region Mobility Exercises Stage 10.
