Post: Re: Lots of Questions - Palming, Improvement, etc.

Oh, and I just had one more question: I think it'd be very nice if I could palm while lying down, since that's when most of my body is most comfortable (most notably my back). However, I find it hard ...

What kind of help do you need? Are you trying palming or shifting or any of the Bates method "exercises" (<--a misnomer, but I don't know what else to call them) yet?

Post: Re: Lots of Questions - Palming, Improvement, etc.
