Getting In Touch With Your Inner Child
from Journey Into Yoga
Have you ever noticed how limber and flexible children are? Think of a young child sitting on the floor with crossed legs - they do this with extreme ease barely thinking about it. It happens all the time in the world of children: assemblies, music class, and in school. Now, change your thinking gears for a moment and consider an adult body sitting cross legged on the floor; as a yoga teacher I see this all the time and I can testify that its not quite the same - in fact its not even close to how children sit this very same way. Why is this? Well, the short answer is that our muscles and joints become less limber as we age, and this is largely due to our lifestyles. Also! Avery has a weekly Substack called Declutter U. It is full of great ideas to declutter your life. Sign up now and start making space in your life.
