Lesson 1 - Standing Mountain
In this video, we will explore the use of props in yoga practice, specifically two blocks or books, or even a chair for forward folding. Props can provide support, stability, and assistance in achieving proper alignment in various poses. For example, if you find it challenging to reach the floor in a forward fold, placing your hands on blocks can help you maintain length in your spine and improve the overall posture. Similarly, using a chair for support in forward folds can make the pose more accessible and comfortable for those with tight hamstrings or lower back issues. By incorporating props into your practice, you can enhance your experience, deepen your stretches, and prevent strain or injury.
