About this video

<p>This 41-minute, all-level yoga therapy practice with Emily is a treat for your lower back, designed to promote spinal health and mobility. Seventy-five percent of people will experience back pain at some point. Often, due to long hours at our desks or driving, our muscles become "shortened," causing compression of the spine. Stress is also a cause of lower back pain. In this session, Emily teaches techniques to strengthen the sacral area and core and reduce forward head position. And you’ll learn how breathwork can transition your nervous system from a stimulated state into its “rest-and-digest” state.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>This class uses a strap or belt, a blanket, a block, and a chair.</p><p><br></p><p>More on Yoga Therapy:&nbsp;</p><p>Yoga therapy is a process of healing and wellness that is steeped in the wisdom scriptures of yoga.</p><p>It utilizes the time-honored best practices of yoga as related to wellness, wholeness, overcoming obstacles, and achieving liberation to equip individuals to take charge of their own lives.</p><p>The Practice School of Yoga Therapy’s approach to yoga therapy is grounded in the philosophical principles and practices of yoga, behavioral change, and western science.</p><p>Yoga therapists provide skillful assessment, therapeutic relationships, and daily personalized practices so individuals may not only reduce suffering in their lives but also to live their best life.</p><p>Yoga therapy may be provided as a solo therapeutic modality in many cases, and also as part of an interdisciplinary therapeutic team.</p><p>If you’re interested in a Yoga Therapy session, sign up for the waitlist <a href="https://practiceyogaaustin.com/therapy-waiting-list/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
