Do you have pain? Stiffness? You can heal yourself! Easy Stretch and breathe routine for life! FREE YOGA @ your place! Just do it! with Elissa Hawke
Hey Steemers!
This is an easy yoga routine almost anyone can do anywhere, even without a mat.
I have practiced yoga since I was 15 but I always feel like a beginner. I mainly use it to rehabilitate and prevent injury!
Whoever you are, if you're not stretching regularly already, this routine will take any concrete feeling, heavy energies off you.
I learned to teach yoga to rehabilitate massage patients with serious chronic injury and dysfunction (including hunchbacks), and this can really change the body patterning and posture in under three months practice, three times a week. I give this routine even to 90 year old patients so I know this technique can help everyone!
This practice addresses all the major organs and meridian lines- and energises, detoxes, stimulates, nourishes and cleanses the whole body.
The most important part is the breath!
lengthening breath and strengthening the lungs is a big advantage of this practice!
DON'T Feel like it's not for you because you may not be flexible!
DON'T feel like its not for you because you cant do the whole routine first time!
Just do what you can do, easily, and each time you will be able to do a little more, stretch into your own limits more each time.
You may notice old energies, fights, memories, and other emotions come up as you breathe and roll around. Just KEEP bREATHING as, (like orgasms : ) all tension is released on the breath.
Practice regularly for two-three months and you will greatly change and strengthen your body. You will build muscle, using your own bodyweight, and you will constantly break open structures, release old emotion, open the mind and reboot yourself!
If you have any questions, feel free to ask!
Please listen to your own body and DO NOT COMPETE WITH OTHERS, AND WORK WITHIN YOUR CURRENT LIMITS!
To practice yoga is not to copy another but to go into your own depths.
You dont need to change anything else about your life, dont need any special outfits or equipment, just sit and stretch, b-r-e-a-t-h-e and enjoy.
At first if you haven't stretched in a while, it may all seem impossible, but each day, each month, each year you will be gaining
Great Article. You remember me? I didn't see you questions until a few days ago. Simply missed your response.

You are so beautiful, @elissahawke. Inside and out! Can't wait to do this vid. Thanks for investing in our health and happiness, by sharing it with us :-)
aw thanks thats nice from a stunner like you @erikaharris ...we've both got the EH eh?
you both sure do
Thanks for sharing something that is surely beneficial for all of us :)
Its true, even just doing the breathing for 30mins would be of great benefit, add a li'l rolling around and you'll feel like a new person @ danuahmed
Great! Nice video. I've been doing yoga and stretches every evening for two years after i started suffering from panic attacks. It has really helped me both mentally and physically. I still have a lot of stiffness in my body, but just breathing into different stretches and just focusing on that is such a nice break from everyday stress and tribulations.
Hey @scandinavianlife! I am so happy to hear your testimony! It is spending time with ourself that is most wonderful, I am so happy to hear when someone heals themself with regular simple practice of self love- congratulations and thanks for sharing as it can help so many others feeling like no one or nothing can help - the answer is always in YOU
That is so true. I dont think I ever was "in my body" Always in my head. Now I am in my brain in my body if you know what i mean. Makes sense to me when you think about ..the brain connects with your body through the nervous system so for example nervousness in the stomach or nausea is "easily" treated by being aware of the connection between your mind and stomach. Its the same thing. Try to feel nervous when youre breathing into your belly and being present. Its not possible :) Just practicing that 30 min every day changed my life..among other things also of course. But i give a lot of credit to that. So do so many other people :)
i love when people heal themselves, save themselves from a potential lifetime of unnecessary and damaging medications which compound problem upon themselves, they are saving many other thousands that they will never know ... breath is everything. There is a great thing called the Buteyko breathing method... it sounds like you are already doing it, but it will fascinate you as you will see the interrealtionship between hyperventilation and anxiety and even asthma attacks... i love healing methods which are FREE, readily available, do not require equipment etc https://www.google.com.mx/search?client=opera&q=buteyko+breathing+method&sourceid=opera&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8 Also if you dont know the Wim Hof method, that is fascinating research into the incredible mind abilities available through breaTH awareness!
That I'm definitely going to check out. Super relevant for me. Thank you! Hyperventilation happened to me, and I'm not sure yet what came first - the panic attacks or the hyperventilation. I havent had them in almost a year now. They're just lovely to get in your car while driving through a tunnel. :D After reading a lot about anxiety attacks and hyperventilation I've been trying to get them by choice. But that is freaking impossible. So my conclusion so far is that it must that unconscious breathing that begin to happen when you're super stressed out that causes it - and THEN you totally freak out when you know whats going to happen (in my case dead hands and legs) But I decided I was not going to let it stop me from doing anything..so I just drove through the tunnel again, and again and again. I've had episodes where I almost freaked out in tunnels, but I'm so quick to recognise my breath and pulse now, so I immediately do a "breath check" when I feel somethings not right. I was so lost before, not in contact with my body at all.
Yoga is great, i do it after boxing and i feel awesome, I will be doing this as well
great @rhedrick32! Boxers and big muscly people need it more than anyone! And they often feel like they "can't"do it, because they ären't flexible"... so glad you already intuitively found your way into it
thank you for this post! Something I may need to make a part of my routine i think :)
