The most common ailments I hear from students are related to muscle tension and stiffness due to chronic or acute back and joint pain. As a result from these problems, we suffer from poor posture, stress, tight shoulders, weak abdominal muscles and even depression.
Through Yoga and Pilates exercises, as well as better breathing techniques, many of these problems can be alleviated, and we can learn how to develop strength in the core muscles of the body, particularly along the spinal column, helping to move the body with comfort and ease so that there is less chance of injury.
Where do I start?
With the breath. Most of us do not know how to breathe properly resulting in a ‘disconnection’ from the mind and the body. Once we understand that the body cannot be moved without the breath, the more we can feel the body in its entirety. Full effective breathing can help alleviate issues highlighted above, and encourage healthier blood flow. Slow calm breathing results in relaxing the entire body so that blood pressure is lowered, helping to lower cholesterol levels.
Please ensure you check with your GP before you begin any type of exercise program.
Look forward to seeing you on the mat x
