International Day of Yoga.

It used annoy me not being able do certain poses (damn you hips), but as I've practised it's become more of whether I can do a pose better than I did yesterday. Some days it's not even about the poses, it's the mental health and accepting today everything was utterly crap and fell apart on me, but I still got me.

Yoga has 8 limbs, physical asana being only one of them. And it doesn't make a whit of difference if you can touch your toes or not. It's the practise of yoga that brings the benefits, not touching toes or bending backwards into a perfect bridge.

Anyway, spiel over 😂 Happy yoga day! 💚

Acupuncture for lower back pain varies according to the different pathologies that cause back pain in TCM.

Acute injuries, blood stagnation, cold-damp and kidney deficiency are some of the pathologies in TCM that cause back pain.
Emotional factors over a long time can also contribute.

Lower back pain is slightly different though often confused with sciatica - sciatica is usually marked by pain running along the course of the sciatic nerve and extends from the back down along the buttocks, posterior of the thigh, back or lateral side of the leg and can extend towards the foot.
