I understand. You have given me a good idea to make a video for sciatica using a chair and seated poses. I’ll let you know when I’ve uploaded it to my channel. Stay posted! 😊 Thanks!

I'm so happy to hear that you loved this class and my instruction. Thank you for the grade of A+ 🤩 Thanks for taking the time to leave me a comment! I really appreciate it.

Hi! Yes! I do have a video for sciatica. Its called 8 Yoga Poses for Sciatic Pain. Here is the link to that video: th-cam.com/video/PYdxoo0mFFY/w-d-xo.html

I'm so happy that you appreciate my teaching style and my reminders. It's great that you will be following this regimen. Stay consistent with your practice and you will see many benefits in your life. Thanks for taking the time to leave me a comment. 🤗💛

I'm so happy that you love the video! Thank you for the question about your inner thighs trembling at the end of the class. It is pretty normal and usually does not mean there is anything serious going on. There could be a few explanations. 1. After exercise, muscles twitch or tremble to increase blood flow to the area. 2. You could be a little dehydrated. 3. It could be you had low blood sugar. 4. Too much caffeine. 5. It could be a tension, trauma and/or stress release, which is a good thing. You might want to check out this video about TRE: th-cam.com/video/WReAjA7Nx4M/w-d-xo.html.

@@YogasJoyfulJourney thank you so much for your explanation . Today I just did your video and there was no trembling in shivasana but I did drink before starting the exercises. I love your video and your clear concise guidance throughout the poses and have shared it with family and friends! I will check out your other videos. I hope my dexa scan in December will show some improvement in my spine and hips!🙏🙏🙏 this is day 4 of your program!👏👏🙌🙌❤️

@@CathyPepe-d2y Glad to hear that you did not experience trembling this time. Thank you for sharing my video and channel with your family and friends. That will help me grow my audience so that I can reach and help other people. Good luck on your dexa scan. Cheers to yoga, strong bones and good health! Keep up the good work! Yay! Day 4!

I'm glad to hear that you have been doing the 30-second hold video and wanted something more! Keep up the good work and you will get stronger and better and see many benefits in all areas! Thanks for taking the time to leave me a comment! 🤗💛

Glad you think it's fantastic! 🥰 I'm in Arizona. Thanks for taking the time to leave me a comment.

Thank you so much! ❤ I’m happy you enjoyed this class. Thanks for taking the time to leave me a comment! 😊

Glad to hear you love this video and the 30 second and 60 second versions. Thank you for your question. The poses do not have to be done in the order I have them. You can do some poses and then do some poses later. The main thing is to use good form and to work towards holding the poses longer (up to 72 seconds). Keep up the good work and you’ll see many benefits. Cheers to yoga and good health! 😊

I am not an expert on scoliosis but depending on the severity and degree of the scoliosis, I feel twists might aggravate scoliosis. Unless you’re certain it will not aggravate the rib arching, scoliosis patients should avoid twisting the torso against the pelvis. Gentle twists might be okay. Work with a doctor, physical therapist, or chiropractor to ensure safety.

@@YogasJoyfulJourney OK. Good to know. They felt good, however!

I'm glad that you enjoyed the video and find it helpful! I have two subsequent videos with the 12 poses for osteoporosis with 30 second holds and 60 second holds. Here are the links to those videos if you would like to try them: 30 second holds: th-cam.com/video/i6c-Xn8j-LI/w-d-xo.html 60 second holds: th-cam.com/video/FBoEN45DUSQ/w-d-xo.html Thanks for taking the time to leave me a comment! 🤗

Glad you liked the workout. Short and efficient! Glad it helped round out your day and that you appreciate the demonstrations and explanations. Take good care and keep up the good work! Thanks for taking the time to leave me a comment. I appreciate it!

I'm happy to hear that my videos have reached you in New Hampshire! I am in Arizona. Glad that you are enjoying my videos for osteoporosis. Thanks for taking the time to leave me a comment. Take good care. Namaste!

I'm so happy that you found my TH-cam channel too! Glad it's easy to follow and the instructions are clear. Thank you for being a subscriber. You will get notified whenever I post a new video. The holidays and January got busy for me so I am behind on posting new videos. I'm glad to hear that my videos have reached you in the UK. I am in Arizona, USA. Thanks for taking the time to leave me a comment!

Glad you liked the workout. Good job on completing it with 5lb weights! It's good to take a rest day in between workout and maybe do some yoga or walking. Keep up the good work!

I'm so happy to hear that you enjoyed the video and the pacing and modifications! It's always nice to know that someone is enjoying my videos! Thanks for taking the time to leave me a comment!

Sorry to hear about your osteoporosis diagnosis and the side effects that you are experiencing. Prescription drugs for osteoporosis can have a lot of side effects. The good news is that yoga has none of the side effects that the prescription medications have. Keep taking good care of yourself, keep moving and strengthening your body and keep a positive attitude through it all. Thanks for taking the time to leave me a comment. Keep me posted on your yoga journey for stronger bones 🤗💛

I'm happy to hear that you are getting closer to feeling good again! Keep up the good work! You are correct that a positive mindset is very important! Thanks for taking the time to leave me a comment!

Glad to hear that you appreciate my clear instructions and modifications! Take good care of your back and just modify the poses as you do the videos to continue to strengthen your bones! Keep up the good work and you'll see the benefits! Thanks for taking the time to leave me a comment!

Glad to know that my videos have reached you in New Zealand. I'm in Arizona, USA. I'm happy that you enjoyed this session and that it is okay for your osteoarthritis in your knee. I hope your knee continues to improve! Thanks for leaving me a comment!

Happy 2025! I can't believe January is almost over! Take good care!

did you have a yoga practice before? how many years have you done yoga? Curious since I've done yoga for 14 years and was diagnosed 1.5 years ago, but I did slack off during COVID and maybe not frequent enough. I've been doing this wonderful led 12 pose now for 1.5 years 3-4X/week and 2X 5 lb hand weight routine. Will get a DEXA this summer. Hoping for some gain.

Wow! I'm happy to hear that you found my channel and have been doing this video often. That's wonderful news that you have a 7.5% increase in your bone mineral density on your recent dexa! Thanks for sharing the information with your doctor and I hope she does get back into her yoga routine. Yoga is amazing for all kinds of things! Thanks for taking the time to leave me a comment! I appreciate it!

I would appreciate a stretching session appropriate for those with osteoporosis. I used to practice yoga with the movements in this session but now they are not all appropriate for those with osteoporosis such as myself. I've been enjoying the 12 poses session for osteoporosis. Stretching before sleeping would benefit me and others. Thank you.

I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed this video! Thank you for the suggestion to add an osteoporosis friendly yoga routine in the style of this class. Sounds perfect! Thanks for taking the time to leave me a comment!

Good Morning, Thanks for taking the time to respond to my post and considering the idea of an Osteoporosis stretch friendly routine. I look forward to see seeing your new routine in the future!

I'm happy you found this video and that it feels amazing for you! Thank you for the kind words on my instructions and teaching methods. I also was teaching yoga in a studio which closed after the pandemic. I was lucky enough to move my teaching on to Zoom and many of my students still take yoga with me on Zoom now! Thanks for taking the time to leave me a comment. Cheers to yoga!

Yes, that is a good instruction for lowering yourself down from bridge pose. I recommend keeping the spine long when lowering down. Sometime the mistake is made of letting the hips touch down on the floor before the waistline touches down which does not keep the spine long. I am not an osteo specialist so please listen to the recommendation that feels right for your body. Thanks for leaving me a comment.

Hi! Although I do not know the level of your osteoporosis, I would say that this video is generally safe for people with osteoporosis. Be careful when you do the bent knee twist and just do it gently without forcing the twist. Take care to listen to your body and don't force or push through any of the poses.

@YogasJoyfulJourney thanks a lot love ❤️ you're always so helpful

You're welcome 😊

Thank you for asking but this is definitely a question for your doctor. Show your doctor this video and ask if there are any poses that you should avoid until your compression fractures are healed. It will depend on the severity of the fractures and your overall health. In order to give the bones time to heal, your doctor may recommend that you avoid all high impact activities, including sports and exercise. You should also avoid any bending, twisting, or lifting motions. However, this does not mean you should stay sedentary until the fracture heals.

@@YogasJoyfulJourney Thank you so much. I'm waiting to see an orthopedic consultant at the moment for further information but it's a long waiting list. I'm being very conscious of my skeletal movements overall, while still doing some osteo exercises ie the tree and similar, which feel safe. Searching for the balance between too little and too much, plus the right movements! Thanks again 💕

You're welcome. Glad you liked it. Thanks for leaving me a comment! 🤗💛
