Lillah Schwartz ~ Mind, Body & Yoga Back Care

Do you have back pain and wonder if there is a solution? Listen to this inspirational and informative discussion that I had with Lillah Schwartz titled Mind, Body & Yoga Back Care. During this discussion we covered topics like:

1. Learning anatomical alignment and how to sense when you have it is the foundation of a practice that is safe for your joints.
2.  The most important thing missing from yoga teaching is teaching students how to find and sustain stability.
3. In practice - Stability comes first, extension of the limbs to create length and space is second, building range of motion
4. Mind/ body connection
5. Why lying flat is helpful for relieving and understanding back pain. using the pelvic clock face as an alignment tool.
6. The importance of the psoas muscle and finding vertical. 
and more.....
