Hello and thanks for your reply!

I do indeed have a heel spur verified by an x-ray. I have also re torn the meniscus in my knee. Both are being treated by laser therapy which is working great. I hope to avoid a steroid shot in my heel and surgery on my knee.

I loved my 30 day challenge. I feel great. However, I also teach regular yoga and over did myself with the 30 days as well as actively teaching 3-7 vinyasa classes a week. Ouch! I was not being mindful of my pre-existing issues! I learned a lesson here. I also found out that I for the heel spur I should go barefoot only during yoga, and wear shoes with good arch supports, even at home, which I am doing.
Thanks!

Gabrielle,

I have practiced yoga for almost 2 years, and am at the tail end of 30 hot yoga challenge. I have developed plantar fascittis on the left foot and wanted to ask what postures I should avoid until it heals? I am getting treatment for it, but no one can tell me what postures, if any, to sit out while my heel heals (he-he-he). Nothing hurts while I am actually practicing, so its hard to tell what not to do until my foot is all better!🙂
