In fact, doctors are now prescribing yoga as treatment and prevention for osteoporosis and osteopenia, making it an important part of maintaining physical health and wellness throughout your 50s and 60s — and beyond.\\n\\nOsteoporosis and osteopenia are conditions that commonly emerge throughout our later years, and if left untreated they can affect your mobility, bone density, and even your ability to remain self-sufficient. These conditions cause bones to be come weak and brittle, and over time more vulnerable to fractures and even breakage. \\n\\nBut a recent\\n \\n2016 study\\n discovered that yoga can be used in conjunction with other treatments to prevent the loss of bone density and in some cases reverse early onset of osteoporosis. Plus, as an added benefit, yoga is also a low-cost and low-risk treatment option, meaning there is little to lose by giving it a try.\\n\\nHow Yoga Can Treat Osteoporosis\\nThe process by which yoga treats and prevents osteoporosis is simple — through stretching and strengthening your muscle tissue you can build bone density and prevent fractures. Yoga postures exert subtle force upon your bones, prompting them to build up density and become stronger.\\n\\nYoga also improves your balance, which can help prevent falls — which may result in fractures or breakage. Along with building strength and flexibility, yoga also increases your mobility, endurance, and energy levels, helping you stay active no matter your age.\\n\\nIt should be noted that yoga may not cure osteoporosis on its own, and for some advanced cases it may not be effective in reversing this disease. Results vary on an individual basis, depending on your age, bone density, and other factors such as weight and co-existing conditions\\n\\nPracticing Yoga for Osteoporosis\\nIf you’re thinking of starting your own yoga regimen to prevent or reverse osteoporosis, there are a few things you should know. It’s important to first consult your doctor before practicing yoga for osteoporosis or osteopenia, to find out if there are any specific precautions you should be taking and whether or not it’s a safe activity for you. \n\\nPatients with advanced osteoporosis who have suffered fractures, breaks, or acute bone loss may need to avoid practicing yoga. If you’ve recently undergone surgery or if you’re still healing from an injury, you should wait until you’ve fully recovered before getting started.\n\\nMost importantly, you should take care to listen to your body when practicing yoga for osteoporosis. If a particular yoga pose causes pain or strain on your bones or joints, stop for a moment and take a break. Or, try using a modification like a bolster, block, or yoga blanket if applicable.\\n\\nIn their 2016 study, scientists found that the best results for using yoga as treatment for osteoporosis came from regular practice. Try performing yoga poses at least 3-4 times per week, or daily if you can. The more regularly you practice, the more bone density you’ll build, and the more strength and balance you’ll develop in your body.\\n\\n8 Yoga Poses for Osteoporosis:\\nIf you’ve been cleared by your doctor to practice yoga and you’re ready to get started, there are some simple yoga poses you can do at home to help prevent osteoporosis. You can also try taking a yoga class specifically designed for patients with osteoporosis. Here at\\n \\nMyYogaTeacher\\n, certified instructors can help you stay safe and injury free while giving you the independence to practice yoga in the comfort of your home.\\nReady to get started? \\nFollow the steps below to begin your own personal yoga journey.\\n\\n1. Mountain Pose (Tadasana)\\n\\nThe foundation of all balance poses, Mountain pose helps you find stability and improve your posture.\\nStart by standing at the front of your mat. Keep your feet hip distance apart, and you can rest your arms at your sides or bring your hands together in prayer formation. Inhale and feel your chest opening and your collar bones widening as you focus on balancing your weight proportionally on both of your feet. Gaze straight forward and maintain this pose for 1-2 minutes.\\n \\n2. Tree Pose (Vrksasana)\\n\\nFrom Mountain pose, you’ll begin to transition into Tree pose to further improve your balance and stability.\\nBring your awareness to your left foot and firmly ground it into the mat. Begin to shift your body weight to your left foot, while gently lifting your right foot. Depending on your ability to balance, you can place the sole of your right foot on your left calf or thigh. As you do this, be sure to keep your pelvis aligned, your spine straight, and your gaze focused forward. Give yourself a moment to steady yourself, and then, if you feel comfortable, press your hands together in prayer formation. Hold for 5-6 deep breaths and repeat on the other side, then return to Mountain pose.\\n \\n3. Warrior II Pose (Virabhadrasana 2)\\n\\nThis standing pose also improves your balance and builds strength in your legs and core. If you have trouble balancing and wish to modify this pose, try practicing it next to a wall or with a chair.\\nMove to the back portion of your mat and step your right foot forward. Your right toes should be pointed forward and your left (back) foot should be kept parallel with your mat. Bend your right knee at 90 degrees, taking care not to overextend. Your right knee should not move forward past your toes. With your hips evenly squared, stretch your arms out to both sides, so that your right arm extended out in front of you and your left arm behind you. Open your chest and focus on activating your legs so that you are grounded into your mat. Hold this pose for 5-6 breaths and repeat on the other side.\\n \\n4. Triangle Pose (Trikonasana)\\n\\nThis pose also requires strength and balance, and can be modified by performing it next to a wall. You can also place a block next to your front foot for easier hand positioning. \\nJust like with Warrior II, step your right foot forward for Triangle pose, keeping your left (back) foot parallel with your mat. Inhale and stretch out both your arms the same as in Warrior II, but keep your right leg straight with a slight, soft bend in your knee. As you exhale, hinge at your hip  and bend forward, placing your right fingertips on the floor, or you can place your hand on the block positioned next to your right foot. Turn your upper body and reach your left hand toward the ceiling, and either turn your head to gaze up at your hand, or keep your eyes focused straight ahead. Hold for 3-5 breaths and repeat on the other side.\\n \\n5. Cat-Cow Pose (Chakravakasana)\\n\\nThis pose is excellent for increasing mobility in your spine and hips.\\nMove to a tabletop position on your mat, with your hands and knees on the floor. Inhale and look up, lifting your chin and gently arching your back. Feel the stretch in your chest and abdomen. As you exhale, drop your chin and look down toward your naval as you curl your spine forward. Continue this movement 5-10 times.\\n \\n6. Locust Pose (Shalabhasana)\\n\\nLike Cat-Cow, Locust improves your spinal mobility with a soft backbend, but in this pose you will also be working your core muscles, glutes, and shoulders.\\nFrom Cat-Cow, lower yourself onto the mat so that you are lying face down on your stomach with your legs extended straight and your arms at your sides. On your inhale, strengthen your core and lift your head, legs and arms at the same time, balancing your body on your lower abdomen, pelvis and upper legs. Engage your glutes and press both of your legs together while holding them up. Hold this pose for 5-6 breaths, and then relax back onto your mat.\\n \\n7. Child’s Pose (Balasana)\\n\\nAfter the strengthening work of Locust pose, give your body a rest with Child’s pose\\nAfter Locust you’ve likely returned to lying face down on your mat. Press your palms and knees into the floor as if you were rising back into tabletop position, but this time bring your hips back so that your buttocks are resting on your heels, and your big toes are touching each other. Extend your arms forward so that your palms are resting on the mat in front of you, and bring your forehead to the mat. Breathe gently and allow your body to fully sink into this pose, supported by the floor. Hold for 5-6 minutes.\\n \\n8. Corpse Pose (Savasana)\\n\\nAfter practicing the above stretching and strengthening poses, it’s important to let your body fully digest the movement by resting in Corpse pose. \\nCome to a seated position on your mat. Slowly lower your body to the floor, so that you are lying flat on your back with your legs extended straight and your arms at your sides, palms facing up. Close your eyes and bring your focus inward. Bring your awareness to your body and check in with each and every body part, noticing if you feel any tension and allowing yourself to fully relax. Soften your face, neck, and shoulders, and let yourself melt into your mat while visualizing any tension leaving your body. Rest in this post for 5-7 minutes."},"category":["pain_management"]},{"id":"clct29qar2mln09k7b9xhmih5","slug":"8-yoga-poses-for-psoas-pain-relief","author":{"name":"Will","teacherMytSlug":"will-1","pictureUrl":"will.jpeg"},"title":"8 Yoga Poses for Psoas Pain Relief","subTitle":"Learn yoga poses that target your psoas muscle to relieve pain.","seoTitle":null,"seoDescription":"By practicing a few specific yoga poses, you can directly stretch the psoas and surrounding areas, relieving tension, pain, and stiffness\n","readTime":null,"excerpt":null,"tags":[],"createdAt":"2023-01-12T12:22:46.336259+00:00","coverUrl":"fitbgltpzxzyqblmzhjg.jpg","content":{"text":"Possibly the most integral muscle group in your entire body, the psoas governs the central functioning of your core. Without it, you wouldn’t be able to move properly, walk, stand, or do much of anything, because the muscles in this group also attach your legs to your spine.\\n\\nIssues with your psoas can be deeply painful, and it’s a difficult area to massage. The psoas major, psoas minor, and iliacus combined make up your iliopsoas, commonly referred as simply the psoas. And when the psoas is unhappy, it can cause symptoms with a range of severity, from slightly uncomfortable to totally debilitating, like difficulty walking or standing upright, lower back pain, and pelvic pain. \n\\nAthletic injuries, prolonged periods of sitting and surgery can affect the health of your psoas, and if you’re experiencing a tight and shortened psoas, it’s likely you’re also suffering from weakness and pain. You can relieve your symptoms and fully recover from psoas issues by stretching and strengthening this important muscle group with yoga. \n\\nHow to Relieve Psoas Pain\\n\\nPsoas pain can affect the entire structure of your body, causing adjoining muscles to become overworked and your posture to become off-kilter, leading to widespread chronic pain. Yoga can help correct issues with your psoas and get you back to feeling balanced again. By practicing a few specific yoga poses, you can directly stretch the psoas and surrounding areas, relieving tension, pain, and stiffness.\\n\\nIt’s important to also strengthen the psoas to enable your body to function properly. A weak psoas can put enormous strain on your surrounding muscles and joints, and a strong core is essential for your physical health. By lengthening and strengthening your psoas at the same time, you can correct issues and reduce pain.\n\\nIf you’re suffering from a tight or weak psoas, try practicing the yoga poses below on a regular basis to start the healing process.\n\\n8 Yoga Poses for Psoas Pain Relief\\n\n\\n1. Low Lunge Pose\\n\\nLow Lunge is an easy pose to start lengthening your psoas muscles, and you can adjust this position to stretch as deeply as you feel comfortable.\\nFrom a kneeling position, start by bringing your left foot forward and bending your left leg at the knee. Inhale while reaching your arms over your head, keeping them parallel with the sides of your head. Allow your chest to expand and lengthen your spine. Remember to keep your chin level and your gaze focused straight ahead. Repeat on the other side.\\n \\n2.  Tree Pose\\n\\nTree pose strengthens and stretches your psoas muscles by isolating the area building strength through balance.\\nStand in Mountain pose and place your feet hip distance apart, arms relaxed at your sides. Gently shift your body weight to your left foot and bending your right knee, lifting it upward. Place the sole of your right foot on the inside of your left thigh. Keep your spine and head straight, with your gaze facing forward. Give yourself a moment to steady your balance, bring your hands together in Namaste formation. Hold for 5-6 deep breaths.\\n \\n3. Boat Pose\\n\\nOne of the best asanas for your core, Boat pose strengthens your abdominal muscles for better balance and posture.\\nStart by sitting with your legs stretched out in front of you and your arms at your sides. Lean back slightly so that your weight is evenly balanced. Inhale, engage your core, and exhale as you lift both your legs to a 45 degree angle, and extend your arms straight out alongside your legs. If this pose feels too difficult, try bending your knees and bringing your hands behind your knees for support. Keep your spine long and your core engaged as you hold this pose for 30-45 seconds.\\n \\n4. Knee-To-Chest Pose\\n\\nWhen your psoas is in pain and walking or standing upright feels difficult, Knee-To-Chest pose offers a supine stretch that can relieve your symptoms.\\nLie down flat on your back with your arms at your sides. Inhale, and then as you exhale, bring your right knee to your chest. Thoughtfully extend and stretch your left leg until you feel the tension begin to release from your abs and inside your hip. As you hug your knee to your chest, remember to breathe and focus on allowing your core to fully relax. Hold for 30-60 seconds and repeat on the other side.\\n \\n5. Dancer’s Pose\\n\\nLike Tree pose, Dancer’s pose works to strengthen your psoas through balance, with a deep stretch that lengthens all of the muscles in the front side of your torso. \\nStand in the middle of your mat with your weight evenly balanced on both feet. Transfer your weight onto your left foot while bending your right knee and grabbing your right foot with your right hand. Lift your left arm up toward the ceiling. Bend at your waist and slowly lean forward, lifting your right leg and engaging your core. You can deepen the stretch by creating some resistance — simply push outward with your right foot while pulling in with your right hand. For better balance, focus your gaze on a fixed point in front of you. Hold for 3-5 breaths, then repeat on the other side.\\n \\n6. Supported Bridge Pose\\n\\nSupported Bridge pose uses a yoga block to both support your weight and lengthen the muscles in your core and inside your hips.\\nStart by lying on your back with your knees bent and a yoga block placed nearby. On your next exhale, tuck your chin and lift your hips, being careful not to allow your knees to splay outward.  Take your yoga block and place underneath your lower back, supporting your weight and providing a deep stretch to the frontside of your pelvis. Stay in the pose for 30-60 seconds.\\n \\n7. Reclining Hero’s Pose\\n\\nBy modifying Hero’s pose to a reclining position, you can gently lengthen your psoas and stretch your quad muscles.\\nKneel on your yoga mat and rest your buttocks on the backs of your heels. Sit with your spine straight and inhale, and as you exhale, begin to gently lower your torso to the floor. You can move slowly, lowering yourself onto your back one vertebrae at a time. Rest your hands on your chest or reach your arms above your head to increase the stretch. Once your are resting on your back, you can also bring your focus to your hips and allow them to rise slightly upward for a greater stretch in your psoas minor.\\n \\n8. Cobra Pose\\n\\nCobra pose lengthens your abdominal muscles and releases tension in your lower back.\\nLie on your stomach with your legs extended, arms folded under your head and your chin resting on your forearms. Place your hands at the level of your chest and press down with your hands. Slightly lift your head off the mat, keeping your head and back aligned, and press your thighs together. Now, steadily pull your elbows towards your ribs and align your hands and shoulders. On a deep inhale, press your hands into the mat, curl your shoulders backward, and lift your upper body off the mat. Make sure to gaze upward and press your hips into the mat to target your psoas. Hold this position for a few breaths and then rest."},"category":[]},{"id":"clckc2txxldwd0ajx6v2ewnfg","slug":"everyday-selfcare-event","author":{"name":"Will","teacherMytSlug":"will-1","pictureUrl":"will.jpeg"},"title":"Announcing MyYogaTeacher’s Free Yoga for Everyday Self Care Event","subTitle":null,"seoTitle":null,"seoDescription":"Daily self-care yoga event for relaxation and rejuvenation.

It was modeled on the Ashtanga yoga method and you'll typically see Ashtanga-style features like sun salutations show up in power yoga classes.\\n\\nHere, I'm going to share a 45-minute power yoga workout that you can do from the comfort of your home. I know you're going to love it and, if you do, be sure to join me in my next live power yoga class on \\nmyYogaTeacher\\n.\\n\\nPower Yoga Workout\\nStart by sitting comfortably in a cross-legged position. Roll your shoulders back and bring both hands into Gayan mudra with your index fingers to your thumbs. Place the backs of your hands on your knees with your palms turned up. Close your eyes.\\n\\nFocus on taking long and deep inhalations and exhalations. As you inhale, fill your abdomen, letting it expand. On the exhale, press the air out, your abdomen sinking in.\\n\\nMinimize any effort from your body. Let go of any thoughts coming into your mind. Just feel the current state of your body and your mind.\\n\\nGently join your palms at your heart center. We're going to do one round of chanting \\nom\\n. Inhale deeply, exhale, letting \\nom\\n fill the space in you and around you.\\n\\nRub your palms together and make a cup shape with your hands, placing them over your eyes. Blink open your eyes and gaze at your palms. \\nNamaste\\n.\\n\\nWe begin today's practice standing for the Sivananda style of Surya Namaskara.\\n\\nSequence One\\n\\nStand at the front of your mat, rolling your shoulders back and joining your feet together. Tuck your tailbone in. On the inhale, take your arms from the front, tighten your hips and thighs, and lift your chest up, keeping your elbows straight. On the exhale, fold forward completely.\\n\\nOn your next inhale, step your right foot back, keeping your knee up. Hold for a breath before stepping your left foot back, coming into a high plank.

Lengthen your spine, keeping your spine straight and your neck neutral. Exhale, soften your knees, and place your palms down on the mat, jumping back to Chaturanga.\\n\\nInhale, point your toes, roll shoulders, and bring your chest up to up dog. Exhale, tucking your toes, and bringing your hips up into downward dog.\\n\\nInhale, bringing your right leg up to the ceiling. Exhale and bring your right foot to the front of your mat, between your palms.\\n\\nInhale, sweeping your arms up, and lengthening your spine into Warrior I. Exhale and place your fingertips down on the mat. Walk your fingertips back and sit down, keeping your left knee pointing up to the ceiling.\\n\\nInhale your arms up and, on the exhale, fold forward over your right leg. On the next inhale, sweep your arms up again, keeping your left knee facing up to the ceiling. Exhale and press your palms into the mat. Move forward into a lunge position, dragging your right heel to the front of the mat.\\n\\nInhale your left arm up to the ceiling and, on the exhale, bring your left elbow to the outside of your right knee, pressing your palms together and opening your chest. Settle into the twist. On the exhale, release your palms down to the ground.\\n\\nInhale, bringing your right knee to your right armpit. Exhale, bringing your right knee to your left armpit. Inhale, take your right leg up to the ceiling and exhale to Chaturanga. Inhale to Urdhva Mukha, up dog. Exhale to downward dog. On the next inhale, repeat the sequence, starting with the left leg.\\n\\nSequence Three\\nInhale and bring your elbows down to the mat into dolphin pose. Interlace your fingers, straighten your knees, and walk toes to the front slightly. Move your body forward, taking your chin ahead of your interlaced fingers. Exhale and bring your body back to dolphin pose. Repeat this back and forth 9 more times, taking your chin to the mat in front of your interlaced fingers each time if you're able.\\n\\nSequence Four\\nInhale, bring your elbows up off of the mat, and exhale into downward dog. Inhale, right leg to the ceiling and exhale, placing your right foot up between your palms. Inhale your arms up to Warrior I. On the exhale, place your fingertips down to the mat.\\n\\nInhale, walking your fingertips back, and sitting on your left leg, keeping your right leg stretched out in front of you.

Inhale, bringing your arms up and, on the exhale, walk your palms forward, dragging your right heel to the front of your mat.\\n\\nOn the inhale, bring your left arm up, and exhale the left elbow to the outside of your right knee. Press your palms together and twist. Inhale, pressing your palms into the mat, and bring your right knee to your right armpit. Exhale, bringing your right knee to your left armpit.\\n\\nInhale and take your right leg up to the ceiling. Exhale to Chaturanga, inhale to up dog. Exhale to downward dog. Repeat the sequence starting with your left leg.\\n\\nSequence Five\\nIn this sequence, we'll be doing 10 rounds of Hindi pushups. If this is too challenging, use the version from Sequence Three (using dolphin pose). We'll start in downward dog.\\n\\nInhale, taking your shoulders and the crown of the head down towards the floor. Lift into up dog, pressing your palms into the ground, and bring your chest down. Come back into downward dog.\\n\\nThe movement should be initiated from the crown of your head. We aren't moving into Chaturanga but are instead doing a pushup with a dip. Repeat 9 more times.\\n\\nSequence Six\\nFrom downward dog, inhale, raising your right leg up to the ceiling. On the exhale, bring your right foot to the front of your mat, coming into Warrior I. Stay in Warrior I for 5 breaths.\\n\\nRelease your palms down to the ground and walk your hands back to sit on your left leg. Inhale your arms up and, on the exhale, bend forward over your right leg. Hold this position for 5 breaths.\\n\\nInhale, bringing your arms back up. On the exhale, walk your hands forward, dragging the right heel to the front and coming into a lunge position.

Repeat the sequence starting with your left leg.\\n\\nSequence Seven\\nIn this sequence, we'll continue to work on building your shoulder strength with shoulder dips.\\n\\nFrom downward dog, walk your feet in slightly, shortening the distance between your feet and hands. Bring the crown of your head toward your hands as though you're coming into a tripod headstand. Then, push back to downward dog. Repeat 9 more times.\\n\\nSequence Eight\\nWalk your feet back to a standard downward dog position. Inhale, bending your knees, and look at the space between your palms. Jump your feet forward to meet your hands, keeping your back flat. Exhale, folding forward completely.\\n\\nOn the inhale, bend your knees, sitting down into chair pose. Sweep the arms up, and stretch the right leg out in front of you for a single-leg chair pose. Hold this position for 10 counts before folding forward on an exhale. Inhale, lifting your chest up and keeping your back flat. Exhale and jump your feet back to Chaturanga. Inhale to up dog. Exhale to downward dog. Inhale, taking your right leg up to the ceiling and, on the exhale, bring your right foot to the front of your mat, in between your hands. Sweep your arms up.\\n\\nFrom here, we're going to move into dynamic kicks, a martial arts-inspired move. To do these kicks, you'll bring your right leg forward in a straight line, sweep it as high as it can comfortably go. Don't bend your knee. Instead, keep your leg straight and swing from the hip. Do 10 kicks on the right side, keeping your lunge shallow between kicks if you'd like. After the 10th rep, rest in half-split pose, or Ardha Hanumanasana, before coming back to Warrior I.\\n\\nNext, we'll work on a combination between dynamic kicks and side lunge pose, or Skandasana. Starting from Warrior I, swing your right leg forward and, as it returns toward the ground, let its momentum pull you into Skandasana, with your palms together at your heart. Use your core to bring your body back to Warrior I. Repeat 9 more times.\\n\\nRelax in Skandasana for 10 counts.\\n\\nInhale to Warrior I. Exhale and place your palms down on the ground. Inhale your right leg to the ceiling. Exhale to Chaturanga. Inhale, coming into up dog. Exhale to downward dog. Inhale, bringing your left leg up to the ceiling. On the exhale, bring your left foot to the front of your mat, between your hands. Inhale your arms up into Warrior I.\\n\\nLet's repeat the dynamic kicks on the left side for 10 reps, ending in Warrior I before taking a break in spit-lunge pose. After that, we'll once again do 10 reps of our kick-side lunge combination (on the left side this time) before relaxing in Skandasana for 10 counts.\\n\\nInhale to Warrior I. Exhale, taking your palms down to the floor. Inhale your right leg up to the ceiling and exhale to Chaturanga. Inhale to up dog. Exhale to downward dog.\\n\\nOn the next inhale, bend your knees, look at the space between your palms, and jump your feet forward to meet your hands, keeping your back flat. Exhale and fold forward completely. Inhale, bending your knees, and sit down into chair pose. We're moving into single-leg chair with the left leg forward this time. Take the arms up, and stretch the left leg out in front of you, hold for 10 counts then exhale and fold forward. Separate your feet and squat down into Malasana. Breathe in and out completely for several breaths.\\n\\nSequence Nine\\nFrom Malasana, roll yourself back onto your buttocks and come into high boat pose. Hold for 10 counts.\\nCross your legs and roll forward until your palms are pressed into your mat. Jump your feet back into a plank. Release your knees to the floor, coming into a tabletop position. From here, tuck your toes and lift your knees an inch or so off the mat.\\n\\nKeeping your knees off the floor, walk forward for 4 steps, moving your right palm and left knee together and your left palm and right knee together, walk backward for 4 steps. Repeat 9 more times.\\n\\nNext, bring your right knee underneath you and your left arm back, turning your body so your stomach is facing the ceiling, lifting your hips up for reverse tabletop. Reverse this movement to come back to all-fours and repeat on the other side by bringing the left knee underneath you and your right arm back. Repeat on both sides 9 more times.\\n\\nCome back to high boat, lifting your legs up, and breathe in high boat for 10 counts.\\n\\nCross your legs and roll forward until your palms are pressed into your mat. Jump your feet back into a plank.\\n\\nLift your hips up into downward dog. Inhale, raising your right leg to the ceiling. Open your hips, bend your knee, and let your right foot fall back behind you. Follow through with your body to sit down (for more challenge, don't rest your hip on the ground). On the next inhale, bring your right leg back into the air before bringing your right knee towards your left side (moving your leg underneath your body) and kick your foot out in front of you.\\n\\nInhale to bring your right leg back up, completing the sequence 10 times. After the last rep, exhale into Chaturanga then inhale to up dog. Exhale to downward dog.\\n\\nInhale, bend your knees, and jump your feet forward, sitting back into your last high boat. Hold high boat pose for 10 counts.\\n\\nRoll forward, pressing your palms into the floor, and jump back into plank. Bring your hips up to downward dog. \\nRepeat the previous combination starting with your left leg. After returning to downward dog for the last time, relax into child's pose. Breathe in child's pose for several counts.\\n\\nSequence Ten\\nFinish up your power yoga practice working on your inversions. If you're not comfortable with inversions, focus on perfecting your shoulder stand, plow pose, and fish pose.\n⁠Dont forget to check out our \\n30 Min Power Rise & Shine\\n Group Class!"}}],"relatedPosts":[],"blogContent":{"id":"ckjinoyfcijzv0934yz6d7vw1","slug":"practice-yoga-at-home","author":{"name":"Will","teacherMytSlug":"will-1","pictureUrl":"will.jpeg"},"title":"Practice Yoga at Home: How to Set Up Your Practice With an Online Yoga Trainer","createdAt":"2021-01-04T14:25:33.893118+00:00","updatedAt":"2022-05-16T14:36:06.219259+00:00","coverUrl":"yoga_at_home_1.png","seoDescription":"Are you ready to practice yoga at home?

You're in the right place! Here, we'll show you how to start a yoga practice in the comfort of your own home, find an online yoga trainer, and get started with free yoga online.\\n\\nNo matter where you are in your yoga journey—just starting out or perfecting your arm balances—practicing yoga at home puts you in control of your time, energy, and effort. And, it can go a long way towards increasing your commitment to your yoga practice.\\n\\nHow to Practice Yoga at Home\\nAs you already know, there's a difference between knowing and practicing. Even after we learn about the benefits of a personal yoga practice at home, we do just about everything we can to keep from putting it into practice.\\n\\nWe tell ourselves that we don't have the time, the space, the right gear... Or, we think we're not far enough in our yoga journey to get anything from the time we invest in practicing yoga at home. For whatever reason, we seem to think that our practice is \"real\" only when we're in a crowded room full of Lululemon-clad fitness models twisting themselves into uncomfortable positions and risking injury because they don't want to be the only one not doing it \"right.\"\\n\\nThat's why we recommend an at-home yoga practice with an online yoga trainer from \\nmyYogaTeacher\\n to get you started on your path to an inspiring yoga practice.\\n\\nGetting set up with an at-home yoga practice is actually pretty easy. Let's look at the 5 steps you can take to get started today.\\n\\n5 Steps to Start Your At-Home Yoga Practice\\n\\nYoga can be calming, invigorating, and relaxing—sometimes all at once. It's all about mindful movement, incorporating physical movement, and meditation to deepen your mind-body connection.\\n\\nIt's important to keep all of this in mind when building your at-home yoga practice.\\n\\nTo help you create a yoga practice that brings you peace, joy, and happiness, let's take a look at the 5 steps you can take to get started practicing yoga at home.\\n\\n1. Create a Dedicated Space to Practice Yoga\\nThe foundation of a gratifying at-home yoga practice is having a space that makes you feel good. If you have a space that you can leave set up to practice, with your props easily accessible and your mat unrolled and ready to go, that's wonderful! Of course, most of us aren't that lucky.\\n\\nIf you don't have a space where you can leave your yoga gear set up all the time, don't worry about it. Just choose a space that's peaceful and has as much space as you can use. To create the right ambiance, you can light candles or incense but that's not necessary unless you enjoy those things.\\n\\nWhat's most important about your space is that it's inviting and makes you want to practice yoga. And, if even that is too much to ask, just practice wherever you can!\\n\\n2. Get Your Accessories\\nTo be clear, you don't need yoga props. You don't even need a yoga mat, though they're really nice to have and make your practice both safer and more comfortable.\\n\\nStart by looking around your house for items you can use as props. No blocks and no money to buy some? Try some books. No yoga strap? Grab a belt or a towel. Need a bolster? Stack up some blankets and pillows.\\n\\nYour yoga practice isn't about the clothing you wear or the tools you use. While props can make your practice more comfortable, there's no need to rush out and spend money on them. If you find that the props are worth it for you, get some. If not, no worries.\\n\\n3. Choose Your Yoga Style\\n\\nWhat are you going to do when you're on your mat? There are so many \\ndifferent types of yoga\\n out there and it's likely that you're going to find more than a few that make your body and mind feel great. Start out by asking what your body and mind need and then build your practice around that.\\n\\nThere are many yoga practitioners who move intuitively, not following a program, or hitting specific poses, just moving their bodies in a way that feels good. Others scour the internet for the perfect class.\\n\\nOur recommendation? Don't get caught up in finding the \"perfect\" series of movements or class.\\n\\nThink about what you need, what will make you feel the best, and either do those movements or find a class that matches that style without stressing over finding a class that ticks all your boxes.\\n\\n4. Find an Online Yoga Trainer\\nEven if you already practice yoga at home, we recommend finding an online yoga trainer so you can relax your mind and let the instructor handle the cueing. With \\nmyYogaTeacher\\n, you can sign up for either live online group yoga classes or one-on-one classes with an online yoga trainer.\\n\\nFinding an online yoga trainer is an excellent complement to your existing at-home yoga practice. Working one-on-one with an online yoga trainer will help you improve your own yoga knowledge quickly. This means that you'll be able to move more intuitively over time and will be able to enjoy your own yoga practice anywhere, anytime. Working with an online yoga trainer is also a great way to learn asanas safely.\\n\\nWith myYogaTeacher, you can enjoy all of the benefits of an at-home yoga practice with an online yoga trainer who will keep you safe and gives you that teacher-student relationship that makes yoga so much more enjoyable. \\nSign up with myYogaTeacher today\\n!\\n\\n5.

Just choose a space that&#39;s peaceful and has as much space as you can use. To create the right ambiance, you can light candles or incense but that&#39;s not necessary unless you enjoy those things.</p><p></p><p>What&#39;s most important about your space is that it&#39;s inviting and makes you want to practice yoga. And, if even that is too much to ask, just practice wherever you can!</p><p></p><h4>2. Get Your Accessories</h4><p>To be clear, you don&#39;t need yoga props. You don&#39;t even need a yoga mat, though they&#39;re really nice to have and make your practice both safer and more comfortable.</p><img src=\"https://media.graphcms.com/resize=width:800,height:450/D0K6AscHTJjH3agIQgSL\" alt=\"Yoga Props for At-Home Yoga\" title=\"common yoga props.png\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" /><p>Start by looking around your house for items you can use as props. No blocks and no money to buy some? Try some books. No yoga strap? Grab a belt or a towel. Need a bolster? Stack up some blankets and pillows.</p><p></p><p>Your yoga practice isn&#39;t about the clothing you wear or the tools you use. While props can make your practice more comfortable, there&#39;s no need to rush out and spend money on them. If you find that the props are worth it for you, get some. If not, no worries.</p><p></p><h4>3.

Start out by asking what your body and mind need and then build your practice around that.</p><p></p><p>There are many yoga practitioners who move intuitively, not following a program, or hitting specific poses, just moving their bodies in a way that feels good. Others scour the internet for the perfect class.</p><p></p><p>Our recommendation? Don&#39;t get caught up in finding the &quot;perfect&quot; series of movements or class.</p><p></p><p>Think about what you need, what will make you feel the best, and either do those movements or find a class that matches that style without stressing over finding a class that ticks all your boxes.</p><p></p><h4>4.

Here's all the tips and tricks you'll need to have an effective home yoga practice.","content":{"text":"Are you ready to practice yoga at home but aren't sure where to start? You're in the right place! Here, we'll show you how to start a yoga practice in the comfort of your own home, find an online yoga trainer, and get started with free yoga online.\\n\\nNo matter where you are in your yoga journey—just starting out or perfecting your arm balances—practicing yoga at home puts you in control of your time, energy, and effort. And, it can go a long way towards increasing your commitment to your yoga practice.\\n\\nHow to Practice Yoga at Home\\nAs you already know, there's a difference between knowing and practicing. Even after we learn about the benefits of a personal yoga practice at home, we do just about everything we can to keep from putting it into practice.\\n\\nWe tell ourselves that we don't have the time, the space, the right gear... Or, we think we're not far enough in our yoga journey to get anything from the time we invest in practicing yoga at home. For whatever reason, we seem to think that our practice is \"real\" only when we're in a crowded room full of Lululemon-clad fitness models twisting themselves into uncomfortable positions and risking injury because they don't want to be the only one not doing it \"right.\"\\n\\nThat's why we recommend an at-home yoga practice with an online yoga trainer from \\nmyYogaTeacher\\n to get you started on your path to an inspiring yoga practice.\\n\\nGetting set up with an at-home yoga practice is actually pretty easy. Let's look at the 5 steps you can take to get started today.\\n\\n5 Steps to Start Your At-Home Yoga Practice\\n\\nYoga can be calming, invigorating, and relaxing—sometimes all at once. It's all about mindful movement, incorporating physical movement, and meditation to deepen your mind-body connection.\\n\\nIt's important to keep all of this in mind when building your at-home yoga practice.\\n\\nTo help you create a yoga practice that brings you peace, joy, and happiness, let's take a look at the 5 steps you can take to get started practicing yoga at home.\\n\\n1. Create a Dedicated Space to Practice Yoga\\nThe foundation of a gratifying at-home yoga practice is having a space that makes you feel good. If you have a space that you can leave set up to practice, with your props easily accessible and your mat unrolled and ready to go, that's wonderful! Of course, most of us aren't that lucky.\\n\\nIf you don't have a space where you can leave your yoga gear set up all the time, don't worry about it. Just choose a space that's peaceful and has as much space as you can use. To create the right ambiance, you can light candles or incense but that's not necessary unless you enjoy those things.\\n\\nWhat's most important about your space is that it's inviting and makes you want to practice yoga. And, if even that is too much to ask, just practice wherever you can!\\n\\n2. Get Your Accessories\\nTo be clear, you don't need yoga props. You don't even need a yoga mat, though they're really nice to have and make your practice both safer and more comfortable.\\n\\nStart by looking around your house for items you can use as props. No blocks and no money to buy some? Try some books. No yoga strap? Grab a belt or a towel. Need a bolster? Stack up some blankets and pillows.\\n\\nYour yoga practice isn't about the clothing you wear or the tools you use. While props can make your practice more comfortable, there's no need to rush out and spend money on them. If you find that the props are worth it for you, get some. If not, no worries.\\n\\n3. Choose Your Yoga Style\\n\\nWhat are you going to do when you're on your mat? There are so many \\ndifferent types of yoga\\n out there and it's likely that you're going to find more than a few that make your body and mind feel great. Start out by asking what your body and mind need and then build your practice around that.\\n\\nThere are many yoga practitioners who move intuitively, not following a program, or hitting specific poses, just moving their bodies in a way that feels good. Others scour the internet for the perfect class.\\n\\nOur recommendation? Don't get caught up in finding the \"perfect\" series of movements or class.\\n\\nThink about what you need, what will make you feel the best, and either do those movements or find a class that matches that style without stressing over finding a class that ticks all your boxes.\\n\\n4. Find an Online Yoga Trainer\\nEven if you already practice yoga at home, we recommend finding an online yoga trainer so you can relax your mind and let the instructor handle the cueing. With \\nmyYogaTeacher\\n, you can sign up for either live online group yoga classes or one-on-one classes with an online yoga trainer.\\n\\nFinding an online yoga trainer is an excellent complement to your existing at-home yoga practice. Working one-on-one with an online yoga trainer will help you improve your own yoga knowledge quickly. This means that you'll be able to move more intuitively over time and will be able to enjoy your own yoga practice anywhere, anytime.
