Yoga for Beginners

Yoga:   What beginners should know 

If you posess normal mobility in your joints, you can and wlll reach this point from regular practice.

Why you shouldn't hesitate to start:


Lots of people are interested in starting a Yoga practice but hesitate and say stuff like:

"I'm not good at that"   OR   "I'm not flexible"


Why you will succeed by trying:


  • Like anything, you get better by continuing to practice. What's great about Yoga is it can be started at any age. You don't need to start young, nor do you need to be an athlete. 

  • Most people aren't flexible, and non-flexible people actually have an advantage. Why? Because you have to concentrate on getting into the pose, calculate the range of motion that's based on your existing mobility limits, and that teaches you the mental focus technique that Yoga is so good for.

Fun facts about the author:

  • When I started doing Yoga, I could not even touch my toes
  • I didn't start my practice until I was 30
  • I kept with my practice becasue it made me feel good emotionally and gave me an ability to focus that I never had before
  • I took up teaching Yoga becasue I had to give to others what it gave to me
If you in in Metro Denver, I can create a custom Yoga program for you!

Namaste
