SUPER HUMAN OF THE MONTH
1) Name: Jennifer
2) Age: 50
3) When did you start your practice ?
“I first did Bikram when I was around 30, so 20 years ago. I've practiced on and off. Over 10 years ago, I did Aikido and it gave me back problems. (Low back). I went to my first Bikram class in a long time, and I left with no back pain for about 4 hours. So, I started practicing regularly. It helped resolve the back issues significantly!
Recently, I had sciatica. So, since Bikram helped my back before, I started going again. It resolved the sciatica in about 2 1/2 months.
It also helps my posture, helps me lose weight, improves my mood, and tones me. “
5) Why do you continue to come back ?
I come back because it resolves so many physical issues, and I feel better when practicing.
6) Favorite posture ?
“Half- Tortoise is my favorite. I feel I really need that stretch.
I'm very inflexible, and can't do anywhere near the full expression of poses. It's amazing that that doesn't matter. I still get the benefits. Plus, the students I see practicing over years and years, they never seem to age.”
😎 To the new student, I would say one of the most important things to learn is how to pace yourself. You want to last the entire 90 minutes, doing as many poses as possible, to get the most benefits. That means, easy does it! Also, try and practice for a while. The benefits come over time.
