Hello Gabrielle,

Thank  you for your reply.

Pushing through disconfort is what I meant.

I am walking differently as my left foot seems to be realigning.

The pain in the ball of this foot I interpret as being an old ruptured disk related sciatica problem resolving itself.

The hips also seem to be realigning. The left hip is difficult to align correctly in Locust, whereas the right hip reveals an important weakness in Hands to Feet pose.

The right shoulder is a lot stiffer than the left and is the area which pops often.

Perhaps releasing and realigning.

My left ankle will wrap around in Cobra, while my right is only very slowly approaching a possible wraparound…

All in all, I am advancing, however, all these issues appearing at once drove me to write my first Help! message.

Outside of class, my body seems to be coping well although sometimes I have a right hand side stiff neck. I am resting a day after every two days of practice to give my body a chance.

Is that the right thing to do?

Namaste.

Ricardo

For all who practise at home, self help is best.

A little patience, a lot of perseverance, and some rest to let your body tell you where to go next so it can deblock itself gently is working for me.

Namaste.
