Yoga for Scoliosis
Back
•
44m
Improve your posture and encourage spinal health and strength with this all-level yoga practice for scoliosis. With an emphasis on pranayama (breath), you'll be moving consciously into each pose to encourage natural realignment of the spine - promoting strength in the not-so-strong areas of the back and shoulders and flexibility in areas of tightness that can typically influence the fluidity and movement of the spine.
The use of 2 blocks is encouraged throughout the practice today (keep them handy at the top of your mat) as you gradually build upon strength and flexibility. In time, you mightn't need the block at all. But the beauty of this practice is that we learn to accept where we are and hold an appreciation for the simple act of showing up on the mat today to tend to the back. Send it some love.
I hope you enjoy this practice. Let me know how you go in the comments section. And remember that you can always return here to continue to cultivate a strong spine and healthy posture.
Namaste, Erin xx
