Chapter 11: The Small of the Back

Also known as the sacrum

This is the most dense part of the human body. It is the triangular area where the lowest five vertebrae, directly above the tail bone, are fused together with the two wings of the pelvis. See sketches here.

This is the centre of balance not only physically but also emotionally. It is also a fairly complex organ having many subtle functions.

As you can see from the sketch of the skeleton, this is not a solid object but has many cavities and holes, each with a discrete function. In many ways, the condition of this area determines your physical and mental well-being. Not only the entire spinal structure but also sexual activity, the ability to bear children, stability (both physical and mental), many detoxification systems and even intelligence are determined by the state of this organ.

A well ordered sacrum will impart flexibility to the whole of the body and mind. A distorted, blocked or malpositioned one will restrict and impair all bodily and mental processes. Your sacrum is, in a very real sense, the fundament of your life! Even the name "sacrum" itself means the indestructible core or basis of life. A fully functioning sacrum will naturally impart feelings of certainty and security to the nervous systems which then, in turn, impart these feelings to the spine and the whole of the body. The result is that you naturally go directly for that which you want and everyone else will move out of your way; backbone in all senses of the word.

Applying the Harmony evolution here will, as the name suggest, balance the core of your life bringing a multitude of advantages.
