Yes, nutation and counter-nutation can occur during breathing, particularly in relation to the movement of the sacrum in the pelvis. As you inhale, the diaphragm contracts and the pelvis can experience nutation, where the sacrum tilts forward. Conversely, during exhalation, the sacrum may move into counter-nutation, tilting backward. These movements are part of the dynamic interplay of the pelvic and respiratory systems, contributing to overall stability and function.

What is earths precession?

The Earth is a spinning top (gyro) with a different moment of inertia about the spin axis than the other two axis. Therefore, it acts like a spinning top with both precession and nutation. Precession of the polar axis (relative to a 'fixed' distant star) forms a cone. The precession period (~26,000years) is the time it takes for the cone to be traced. Nutation occurs normal to the precession cone and has a much faster period (~18.6yrs).
