Asking Eddie about dropbacks

I asked Eddie today, as he came to help me drop back: What do I need to understand about being able to drop back on my own?

Three things he said to me

It takes time
The back needs to open a little more
and
in a few months we will give you some extra exercises, probably walking up and down the wall.

Oh dear, the back bending has been the most humbling proposition of my entire life... I remember doing that with Greg, back on my first year of ashtanga, then not doing it, now again, but "in a few months".

Surrendering is key, so OK, in a few months... maybe one day, ONE DAY, I will do it on my own.

No rush though, I am truly enjoying the whole thing
