Welcome to Monday! I have created two versions of this care for your feet yoga class. The one I am sending here takes place on the floor with a yoga mat and includes down dog and warrior two, the other is a chair yoga version for those who do not want to get down on the floor. Find the chair version here.
I have watched both my grandma and my mom fall prey to bunions as they become more fearful on their feet the last couple years. Bunions are caused by hereditary factors, but can also be exacerbated by neglect and poor shoes and the gripping through the feet that comes from fear of falling. Yoga can help you stay connected to the earth and aware of the muscles that need to relax and the ones that need to be activated. Resources: Article by Doug Keller published on Yoga International.
These two feet classes are not as short as I intended them to be. I will get better at timing with some practice! Please reach out if you have questions or concerns.
Thanks for listening. More soon.
Much Love, Tina
