The Simplest Solution to Environmental Mismatch: The Deep Core Body Map
By Musclemonk

The deep core body map describes the architecture of the axial line of the human body. It is a simple, intuitive, and natural way to develop awareness of our postural center. The deep core body map tells us where to pay attention—and attention produces neurological and muscular tension. This in turn restores a healthy balance of tone in the body. Awareness is the beginning of our natural adaptive postural response to mismatch.
Conscious activation of the deep core produces a shift in awareness and a boost in our inbuilt coordination dynamics. We can call this cognitive shift biomechanical enlightenment and it is easy to get started. You already have everything you need and you always have. It is simply the deep core or axial line of the body.

The simplest solution to our maladaptive response to environmental mismatch and things like stress, toxins, and trauma is biomechanical. It is sensorimotor. It is our system of deep postural muscles and we are, of course, already using it now. However we are not doing so with much conscious awareness. The body map helps us to focus on this core structure and consciously activate or co-operate it. We do not operate it. We cooperate it.

Our structural response to mismatch is postural collapse. This happens in the structure of the skeleton in a simple and predictable pattern of reversals or inversions. The deep core body map simply tells us where to focus our attention in order to boost tone and vitality in these key areas of the system. In doing so, because of improved coordination, we experience a phase transition in the oscillations of the brain to a higher level of organization. A cognitive shift. We call this Consilience, the jumping together of disparate phenomenon into a single unity. It is the hallmark of truth. It is also the simplest solution. In this case the truth that you experience is your own self identity. There is no better place to start than your own deep core.

Train Like A Bodhisattva.
