I wanted to put this photo here for a few reasons. The foremost being that of a proud father showing off his son but also, his turning head keeps catching my eye. Having spent time with a few different BMC® practitioners and practiced some of the developmental movement pathways espoused by Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen I finally have the perfect teacher. Watching little Jude respond to touch on his cheek and the accompanying rooting reflex that (when on his back) initiates a roll to his side or tummy is a joy. When he wakes he has a little stretching routine that lengthens and rotates through his spine and extends from his toes to his fingertips. I could go on (really, I could) but there’s plenty more for you to read in this issue that’s not about our baby.
Thanks to the contributors for this edition - Karen Barbour, Juliet Shelley (good luck with the birth) and the ever present Jonathan Sinatra.
