Hi: I just had occasion to view Bernie Clark demonstrating Yin Yoga on Flow Yoga on TV, and I emailed him to ask if he thought I might be able to do Yin Yoga...or any suggestions he might have.
I'll repleat my question as put to him: I'm a fairly new acupuncturist and have always followed alternate health living in one form or another, but I'm also a right above knee amputee (for 50 years) as the result of a road accident when I was three. I've been good in a healthy lifestyle...except for exercise and/or movement health...have tried yoga a couple of times and tai chi, but haven't stuck with it, I guess largely because there winds up being too many poses, positions I can't do. So I get discouraged and give up.
But lately I'm having some trouble with my good leg,...stiffness, soreness, foot pain...and I know I need to do something to keep moving. Use it or lose it, right??
Again, apart from wearing a right leg prosthesis and being 59, I'm actually in fairly good shape...just need to find something to keep me going! Especially as I'm trying to get my TCM practice up and thriving.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Anita in Victoria
