Spine Flexibility--Iyengar Yoga with Kathy Cook
Our spine includes the posterior side, the lateral side as well as the anterior side. Here we bring awareness to both the front and back with these twists and aware of the abdominal engagement. Pay attention to creating length, space, and broadness to create maximum benefit. Use the breath, to lengthen and turn while observing the shoulder direction to maintain length in the neck.
Enjoy! Namaste

Groin Tension Release--Iyengar Yoga with Kathy Cook

When the space in the groin is tight, it pulls the lower back towards the pelvis. In this case, the groin where the leg connects to the pelvis is overly tight and gripping. In the various positions in this session, I address the actions needed to activate the ...

    I enjoyed this practice very much. I didn't do the shoulder stand for long because it was my first try. Could I do the baddha konasana pose for longer? While pressing the feet into the block I felt activation of muscles at the top of the legs so I thought it might be useful to do it for a longer period.
