Makko Exercise（真向法）are a sequence of 6 breathing exercises which both stimulate and encourage the flow of energy in your body.  They can be used alongside Shiatsu sessions, as a tool for your own well-being.

The photo above is from a workshop by Mr. Yuki Nakazawa in downtown Manhattan. You can learn more about the exercise, and the philosophy behind it at Makko Exercise.

Mama's morning exercise

On the last mother's day, I was in Japan, staying at my mother's house.
At that time, she was on Banana diet (Eating 2 bananas as a breakfast), and the hula hoop (she puts water inside it) exercise.
