Here's the G and if you compare it with the S, it's like a shock almost, because you see nothing. Everything is so fairy like, very, very light. Yes, can you see anything on the paper? Almost nothing. So, it has a yellow movement, a silver grey veil and a blue character.
Very, very light if you compare it with the S that we just had, which is very, very nice. So the figure is asymmetrical and as I say, it's like a fairy. And now in arrhythmia therapy, it has a very distinct application and that is there's a pipe going from your gallbladder into the intestines. And this pipe can be either too narrow or it can be blocked by gallstones or by something else, but it can also be too narrow. And you know little babies when they go, they start like this. Then they are trying to get their bile through this pipe from the gallbladder into the intestines, because they need to digest the very fat mother's milk and they need the bile to do that.
And some children can't do that easily, some babies. So it has a very, very distinct application and it is also and mostly choleric people struggle with that. And that's why they are choleric, because they can't digest properly, they can't get it out properly, and then it comes out the other way, which it shouldn't. So, I've been a choleric for fifty years and when I studied urithneotherapy, suddenly it was over, which was such a relief, I can tell you.
So, I know what I'm talking about here. So, the first application, as of the first movement with the legs is, that you can practice, is you put your foot on the inner edge. Yeah, can you see you just put it down on the floor, not the whole foot, but just the inner edge. And then you push this to the side, you push the foot to the side, and the other foot.
And step. And and step and g and step and g and step and g and step. And just breathe for a moment. All right, so we just do that again and then just observe what is happening in this realm under your rib cage. Just feel that realm afterwards. So we do it once more.
Good. Good. And we stand and just feel what it does to this this belt here. Can you feel that it feels relieved somehow that it is breathing differently?
Yes, it's not so so together anymore. So now the next step to intensify the movement is that you now keep your knees together. So the knees are together now. For the children I often put a card in between the knees so that they don't lose it. And now you have to bend a little bit and then you do the same thing, but you keep your knees together. Step.
Always keep your knees together. You can only make a small step, otherwise it doesn't work. And And Can you feel how you breathe differently? Yes, there's no pressure from here anymore. So suddenly there's space around there.
Next step is that you, the children I tell often a story of a little dwarfie who was laughed at because he had skew little legs. So, the card is still between the knees and now you can just put one heel out and put the foot on the toe. And you still leave your knees together. Once the children can do that without losing the card between the knees, then they can try and do a jump. So with both their feet at the same time. And together.
And together. And together. G and together.
So the heel is like the elbow, yes? Like the G of the elbow. So now we do it with the arms with it. So we put both arms below the shoulder. Very fairy like, yellow movement, silver grey, silver grey feeling. Not hard at all. And a blue character so that when we get there, it's distinct.
Good. Now we try both together with a jump and the arms. And and rest. And and and rest.
And g and rest. And g and rest. And when you breathe through. Can you feel that you feel much lighter now here? Because here this is taken care of.
Yes, suddenly, if you were in a bad mood, suddenly you have a good mood. Yes, because this is out of the way. Now you can also do it symmetrically, the movement, and especially when it is about. What's the word for it? If you really want to get out what needs to get out of your intestines.
Yes. So then you can do it parallel with each other and you can do it into the front. So that is for the last bit of excretion, when you really need to get rid of something and it cannot really get out. So that is the Ge.
There's one more. How do you do this with children? It's very difficult to do with nursery school children because they can't imitate in such a distinct way already or if they are choleric, then they are choleric, then they are not going to do such fine movements. So I've got a little chair and I put and I sit myself on it or I hold it and I hold it like this, like this, push against it and the children have to sit on the floor And they have to very slowly now push this chair to the side. Now it goes very quickly and usually a choleric child will do it like this.
Yes? But this is not the exercise. The exercise is now that he must learn to do it slowly. So I will press against it so that he cannot do it so quickly. So he has to do. And I hold and he has to push slowly.
And there's resistance. Yes, there's more resistance than now that the chair has. And then also with the other foot. Yes. And then they can also do it with the hand.
So that they learn the G movement against resistance. And there is resistance that they have when they have this little chair. So it's a good thing if you also maybe you cannot feel the resistance of something. Take a chair or a table or something that you really feel that you are pushing against a resistance.
And then you will have a good feeling that you have to get something out and push your way out. And when you push it out, then suddenly there's light. Yes. And you don't have this darkness bothering you. Also, soul wise, this has to be pushed out and then you can be quite light. Maybe a person that is a little dark, yes.
Whenever you want to create a lighter space, you want to free this person from this darkness, you know. Maybe from the bad news that you always hear from the radio or something, you know. Just to take away the darkness that you feel again you are in the light, then you can apply it at the top. But mostly in urhythmic therapy, apply it for the go, you know. But that's a more general kind of thing that you want to do, you know. If you have people or yourself where you feel you are dark, you just need to create a space of light and then you push the darkness to the side and you will feel much lighter then.
If you have a physical problem, that's when you use it low. If you have a small of a soul problem like there are thoughts that keep harassing you, for example, then you can obviously do the girl in the middle, you see? And really feel I want to free myself. I want to free this space from from being so burdened.
And then you can do the girl in the middle. That's more for, you know, feelings or so. But you can feel, you see, here's the thinking, here's the feeling and here's the will. So, urhythmic therapy usually works with disease, yes, with physical disease. But on the soul level, can definitely, and mostly it comes also from the top. So if you free yourself from bad thoughts, you can do it in the middle and at the top.
Yes, so that you can breathe again. Sometimes when, you know, things become too close and too narrow for you. Good. Let's move on to the next.
Now comes our k. Now that is quite a funny chap. Here's our k. Now you see him from the side, yes? And look how he stands on one heel, his really heel. Can you see that right foot is really doing a k.
Now, if we look at it a little closer, he is quite demanding in his way of uprightness. Yes, he always almost leans a little bit backwards. He's got a carmine red movement, a yellow feeling and a fiery red as a character. Now we can't see that fiery red, because it's hidden in the carmine red. But the amazing thing is, if you look at the veil, it's now half to the back and half to the front and comes together front and back around that person.
So it's almost like a king who wants to mirror the spiritual world into the the physical world. It can be a pharaoh, a pharaoh that was leading his people out of what he learned from the gods and now he's implementing it on the earth. And the fiery red is just there from the nose all the way up to on top of the forehead, kind of. This is fiery red. Yes, just this line.
And then the fiery red is in the upper arm there and here at the back and in the feet. Just there, right into the heels. That's where the fiery red is.
And it's in the neck. It's like a collar, a fiery red collar. So there's a lot of self self expression there somehow that he knows what he's doing. So, now the K is also for very caloric children, you know, it brings them right down, but it now has this male character. So, what we need to do now is, it's much much more demanding on the children. So, one can do it with class four, class five children, little bit older children.
And what they have to do, they have to jump not on their heels because that will make it worse. Yes, they do now like this, it will make it worse. So now they have to jump on their tiptoes and they have to stand on their tiptoes. So it's very demanding to keep your balance when you do that. So it's like this.
And you stand and there mustn't wiggle or wiggle or anything. And then you let go. And again, jump on your toes. Quite demanding, hey. And.
Good and. Yeah. So, the children really have to stretch right through and they have to get this fiery red right into their feet and really have to master themselves, which is a good exercise for these choleric children. So, now we bring in this yellow veil. So, there's this yellow veil behind and the front veil is now putting it into place what they receive from behind.
Let's do it one more time so that you can practice it a little bit. It's quite demanding to come to this point where one really stands and has mastery over oneself completely. Good challenge for choleric children. And don't forget the the yellow veil behind you.
It's easier with the yellow veil behind you. Did you feel that when you you have this yellow veil behind you, it's quite easy. And look at the whole gesture that he has. He's quite like this almost. I mean, I'm exaggerating it now, but he's quite demanding, yes, in his demeanor. His whole attitude is demanding. Yes, try this, obey, you know, somehow.
Very strict kind of king who needs to rule. So, we can do it one more time. So, try and feel that yellow veil behind you so that you can rule.
Now I want you just to stand for a moment with your feet together, Maybe close your eyes and just kind of scan yourself. How do you feel now? So breathe out and just feel how you feel. And maybe write it down so that you don't forget how you feel.

Abbreviations, Sources

 

Eurythmiefigur-G Baeschlin

G

Eurythmy Figure G

  • Movement: yellow
  • Feeling: silver-grey
  • Character: blue
  • Compared to the S, this figure is so pale! Feeling is silver grey.
  • Very asymmetrical.

Therapy

  • G is used to stimulate bile production and bile flow. Helps the fat to be digested.
  • Especially for very choleric constitutions, to make the bile flow.
  • A simple G gesture can help to reduce choleric anger.


Execution

  Therapeutic Aspects

Preparing the G-Jump

  • Use the inner sole side of one foot to slide to the side. Do it in such a way that you feel your inner space increasing, expanding. Then with the other foot.
  • Do the same but let the knees stay together. To do so, you must bend the knee of the supporting leg more.
  • Then do it with the heel of the foot leading the movement. The knees must still stay together tightly.
  • Then keep pushing stronger, until the G feeling of expanding your space is formed from below.
  

G-Jump

Then you do the same with both feet at the same time.

  • This requires and creates the jump.
  • It has to be done very lightly, not with much effort.
  • After the jump, you have to stay standing high on your toes.
  • Open up the back when doing the G with the legs.


  • It is difficult to stay on your toes like this. 
  • You struggle with balance – and this brings the Ego in.
  • To do it without much effort is the way to bring the Ego in.

G Gesture

  • Start with upper arms pointing forward, hands pointing down and outwards.
  • Perform the arm gesture slightly downwards.
  • Open your back.


  • Have the feeling that space is created and freed.

G gesture with jumps

  • G jumps accompanied with the G arm gesture in the middle/lower realm.
  • G is a plosive sound – the gesture has to arrive, despite the jump.
  • Have the feeling of expanding the space.
  • Open your back also now.
  

G with the legs with little children

  • Let the child sit on the floor.
  • Ask the child to push a chest to the side with the soles of the feet, but slowly!
  • Can be done with a foot and also with the arms.
  • Use other things to be pushed away,
  • For nursery school children
  • Choleric children have to be taught to do it slowly and not in one push.
  • Don’t do it in the form of wrestling with a person.



K

G is more female, K more male.

Bäschlin Eurythmiefigur Konsonant K

Eurythmy Figure K
  • Movement: carmine red
  • Feeling: yellow
  • Character: vermilion, fiery red
     
  • The K figure is depicted in profile: a demanding, ruling, noble person.
  • One heel is very low, pointing into the earth.
  • Symmetry of front and back. Both veils are in symmetry in front and behind. This means the K is a king, a pharaoh – very much acting out of the spiritual world behind.
  • Fiery red character in the lower legs, upper arms, in the whole neck like a collar, and from the forehead down to the nose.
Therapy
  • K serves to widen the gall duct and enhance the flow into the intestines.
  • K is helpful for very choleric children to master their balance – to bring the ego in.
  • For gallstones and kidney stones, to crush them.


Execution

  Therapeutic Aspects

K-Gesture

  • With the yellow veil behind and in front of you, you bring the light in.
  • The arms don’t come down very deep.
  • You stay pretty upright, with a crown on your head
  • You are a noble, wise, demanding ruler.


  • The K gesture intends to bring down light.
  • For gall and kidney stones you go further down with the gesture.

K Jumps

  • In the jump, the legs don’t go on the heels – this would make you more choleric.
  • Instead, we go on the toes, but we spread our legs apart.
  • We jump on the tip of the toes and then we stand there for a while like a king.
  • No wiggeling. This requires enormous mastery!
  • It’s a jump up into the lightness – you jump up.
  

K Gesture and jump together

Preparation

  • Go up on your toes while the K comes down.
  • When letting go of the arms, hold the leg and body tension for a while before letting them go too.

Arm gesture and jump

  • Needs a lot of the yellow veil at the back.
  • This is what makes you light and holds you.
  • The figure shows you that: it is very upright, almost leaning a little to the back.

G, K, Q

Now, Miss Wolfram, would you kindly demonstrate the G sound for us? Now, try again to incorporate a forward-jumping movement, forming X-shaped legs as you go. The same applies to the K sound (demonstrated by Mrs Baumann). Now, with the Q, you must attempt to advance forward while keeping the legs sharply spread apart—this is essentially the same movement.

Here, in G, K, and Q, we have movements that stimulate forward motion and the internal mechanisation of the intestines, thereby supporting intestinal peristalsis. The difference in physiological effect between D and T versus G, K, and Q is that D and T primarily influence food processing, while G, K, and Q primarily support the movement of food through the intestines, particularly in cases where intestinal mobility is sluggish.
