Petra Yoga

According to yoga, we are as old as our spine.  Therefore, keeping the spine in good health is paramount to long and healthy life.

Today, it was all about the reversal of ageing of the spine.  We did a series which included spinal twists, ‘abduction’ and ‘adduction’ of the spine, forward and back bending.  It was all done in traction, suspended from the wall.

We also learned what to do if the lower back is in serious pain/spasm; and that is very gentle cranio-sacral work to release the spasm of  the involuntary muscles supporting the spine.

Great stuff!
