Thank you Gabrielle for your help. I will update you on my progress in regards to my tendonitis. I am doing physiotherapy as well for my IT band and with the practice of yoga I hope to be able to take the stairs down without any pain and to start the training for my April 10-miler race.
I used to have sleep problems and was very stressed in general, but with hot yoga my sleep has improved dramatically and I also feel more confident and more at peace with myself and have a better posture.
Unfortunately it seems like I can’t lose weight (and since I arrived in the U.S. two years ago I have put 11 pounds on me; but I’m still 131 pounds at 5’5″ so I am not so concerned but I wish I could stop here with my piling up pounds).
Namaste and thank you for this wonderful website and forum,
Erdo
