I’m attending Restorative Yoga classes. It is yoga positions totally supported. Relaxing. Focus on breath and on releasing tension.
We do something called supported fish (I think) – lying face down with a bolster under our hips. “Our junk drawers”, the instructor says and I almost laugh out loud. The last time I went for body work, my therapist asked me what was going on with my hips. Now I know.
Apart from my junk drawers, the rest of me is surrendering to the process.
Keep enjoying yourself, VJ! 🙂

I haven’t heard of Restorative Yoga. I’ve thinking of trying Tai Chi for my balance.

Yikes! Trying to visualize face-down and hips bolstered … my neck is aching just considering …
I’ve tried yoga a couple of times and abandoned it … too much pressure (no doubt intended as encouragement) … but maybe I would fit better in restorative yoga. Thanks … you’ve got me rethinking options!

There is no way I could do regular yoga. This is no pain. All exercises can be adjusted for your needs. Nice to hear from you. How is your hip?

I do Yen yoga which is also supported. I find it has really helped my digestion. I hop you find this practice restorative for you.

Good for you, VJ. I do Zen yoga which is also supported and it has helped my digestion so much. I hope this practice will be restorative for you.
