@yogaontheinside: I’m 73 years old. After 40 years of studying, teaching and practicing yoga I have learned many things. ✨ The most important thing, the only thing that really matters in your personal practice, is that you practice for what your body and mind need ✨ My body first and foremost needs backbends. It always has and always will. They may not always be as strong as this one but backbends come in all different levels of intensity ✨ I came to yoga with 2 slipped discs and backbends healed me. They keep me young and out of back pain. ✨ I was the stiffest guy in the room for many many years but I committed to yoga. After my first class, falling out of Trikonasana because I was so stiff, I absolutely knew that practicing these poses, along with the other aspects of yoga, would heal me ✨ For you, it may not be backbends. You may need to practice for anxiety or depression, hormone balance or an injury. It’s up to you to ask yourself what you need. Some people need to go to a class and sweat. Some people need to calm their nervous system with restorative poses. ✨ In all my years this has been one of the biggest lessons. Yoga is the practice of learning to love yourself. And giving your body and mind what they really need, each and every day. #yoga #yogapractice #yogainspiration
