Yoga is beneficial for the muscles supporting the back and spine, including the paraspinal muscles, multifidus muscles, and transverse abdominis.

The practice combines movements and isometric holds to build strength and mobility, reducing lower back pain.

Yoga's gentle stretches improve flexibility and mobility in the back.

This therapeutic approach enhances posture, promotes healthy spinal alignment, and strengthens core muscles.

Key benefits of yoga for lower back health include muscle relaxation, strengthening, improved blood flow, neutral spinal alignment, and enhanced mental health.

A short sequence to ease lower back tension follows.👇

Happy Practicing!

•••A few things to think about•••

❤️Love is the answer.
Always.

🥺Vulnerability is not a weakness.
It’s a strength.

🤗Your body is sacred.
Cherish it.
Care about it.

✨Gratitude shifts everything.
Continue to be grateful.

🙏🏻Forgiveness sets you free.
Really, it does.

🫵You can’t change others.
You can only change yourself.

🌿Little acts of kindness are never little.

🎉Fun is underrated.
Go and enjoy yourself!

🔢Age is just a number.
It’s never too late to start over.

🌈Life is precious.

We're often urged to minimize our footprint. 👣

Be smaller.
Trimmer figures.
Not too loud, not too bold, don't take up too much room, don't be too thriving, don't be too independent, don't be too assertive.

Just fit into the box society has tailored for you, for goodness' sake.

However, let's strive to be dynamic, strong, fearless, and influential.

Let's occupy our rightful space, voicing our unique perspectives without apology.

And celebrate our bodies as vibrant and capable vessels, honoring their dedication.

We are enough.

Happy National Women's Day!🇿🇦

Prolonged periods spent at desk jobs, using electronic devices, and driving vehicles often result in tight and weak shoulder muscles, leading to rounded shoulders and a forward-leaning neck.

These exercises target upper back and shoulder strength without putting excessive strain on the wrists.

As always, listen to your body and adjust accordingly.

Breathe.😮‍💨

Happy Practicing!

Gratitude gives life a lighter touch, transforms our outlook, and reveals our true selves.

The focus isn't on physical flexibility, but on reconnecting with neglected aspects of oneself through movement.

By engaging in mindful movement, breathwork, and somatic awareness, one can transform their relationship with their body, history, and healing process.

No prior yoga experience is needed; just a willingness to explore.

Peace

A profound understanding of asana, or pose, emphasizes genuine bodily respect and emotional awareness, superseding concerns for flawless alignment or angular precision.
(FYI - props are our friends!)

Our practice aims to nurture balance, flexibility, and strength, recognizing that these attributes fluctuate throughout our lives, influencing both our mat work and daily existence.

Happy Sunday!✨

A wonderful way to start, or reset your day.

Meet yourself where you are at, and honor your body.

Allow yourself to breathe in each pose by staying there for 5 breaths.

If it’s accessible to you, elongate your exhale.
By elongating the exhale, you are activating your parasympathetic nervous system (which is responsible for rest and digest).

Allow your breath to flow with a steady rhythm. Rhythm is essential to life, moment by moment.

Practice Sthira and S**a; stability and strength, comfort and softness.

This promotes a calm and focused state of mind.

Happy practicing!
