Relief From Standing

It’s been fun making the Yoga Anywhere! Take Five and Stretch Videos and I appreciate the positive feedback I’ve  been hearing from you. I am so glad the videos are helpful! Some of you have reached out and said that you stand all day, and asked what you can do to ease the discomfort and pain that results.  This week’s post is for you. If you’re a teacher, retail worker, doctor, nurse, waitresses, cashiers or other stander, here are some tips for you!

Healthful Advice

Years ago I received some really good advice from one of my first yoga teachers and would like to pass it along to you. It was 1995 and I had a stressful corporate job.  Some days there was so much pressure I began to experience a bit of anxiety.

This helpful advice worked wonders! Next time you feel stressed or catch yourself looking for a sugar or caffeine boost during the day try inverting instead! For more on the benefits of inversions see my recent blog post. To learn how to cultivate […]
