132: Gentle Yoga For Back Strength & Twists + How To Avoid Overstretching Injuries
from Quietmind Yoga: Build Strength, Flexibility & Balance · host Jeremy Devens
The new Yoga For Beginners online course is available now at http://www.quietmind.yoga - this is made for total beginners but full of insights including things that took me 8 years of practicing to learn, so this is great for all levels to brush up on the fundamentals. It includes daily practices in the styles I teach on this podcast. All recorded for you to watch anytime on any device. All on video! Today's class addresses one of the most important things I teach - how to develop both strength and flexibility in your practice to prevent imbalances. I had the common misconception for years that if I did strength training my muscles would get shorter and less flexible - I now know that is 100% not true! I'll share more about why in the intro, and how to apply this in the practice. This is a great, well rounded practice that is both gentle and strength building - not the most common combination! Props recommended: 2 blocks, bolster, blanket, wall space Yoga Supplies I Use and Recommend: * Manduka Yoga Blocks: https://amzn.to/2VnpECf * Manduka Yoga Mat: https://amzn.to/2BFKgic * Manduka Yoga Strap: https://amzn.to/2Bdr3Vf * Any Manduka bolster * Any "soft Mexican yoga blanket" - there are many brands Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jeremy.quietmind/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/quietmindcommunity/ Quietmind Yoga Podcast: https://www.quietmind.yoga/podcasts Quietmind Astrology Podcast: https://www.quietmind.yoga/podcasts - Now with weekly horoscopes Yoga Teacher Training Podcast: https://www.quietmind.yoga/podcasts Thrive Teaching Online Podcast: http://www.thriveteachingonline.com Thanks for listening!
