Don’t sacrifice the detail for the movement. Especially now we’re throwing back bends into the mix.
Keep looking for these – don’t tell yourself off for not doing it. Just switch it on, happy that you noticed. If you did just tell yourself off, have a chuckle and move on.
- never work into pain…and be curious about a niggle.
- connect the pelvic tilt to tummy muscles on, in all the poses
- ‘find tadasana in all asana’
- ‘a strong leg, not a locked leg’
- Awareness of gravity reminds us to lift
- Yoga is a conversation with our bodies. It’s a conversion between equals. Seek compromise Accept that sometimes the answer is ‘no’.
- Come to your mat without expectations. The same asana is different every day. Look for this and accept it.
- In back bends, we lengthen our spines into extension. ‘Bend’ is a slight misnomer – we lengthen backwards.
