“Your classes have made such a difference for me! Even in this short time my pain levels have gone down, and my breathing is so much improved. Even my osteopath noticed a big difference in my last adjustment. He said my body felt much more alive. Excited to see where it can all take me!”
Let’s Get Started!
Here’s what you’ll need:
- Enough space to lie down and stretch your arms
- Loose fitting clothing
- A yoga mat is optional
- Water
- Your can-do attitude!!
Today we had a special episode on breathing. We looked at three different styles of breathing: Jellyfish breathing, sniff reflex breathing and “Fill and Lift” breathing. We spent some time on the powerpoint looking at an image of what is happening in the ribs with scoliosis. And then I did my (amazing) drawings to help you understand how the diaphragm works to support the spine. And we talked about the diaphragm not only as a breathing muscles but also as a major stabilizer of the spine. Give it a try! And, as always, please let me know how we can help!
As a reminder, remember to speak to your doctor about whether this program is right for you.
