There’s nothing quite as enjoyable as lying flat on your back on a sun-drenched wooden deck. Try it devoid of all clothing to feel directly the mild scorch of healing heat beneath your shoulders and back. You will notice which…
Horizontal Basics
In a nutshell: Lie down. Why? Because the act of lying down gives instant relief. Because lying down is a deliberate action. Because when you’re lying down, you’re looking up. Because it is the time, the place for mankind now…
