🪷Props on Retreat 🪷 and Remedial Yoga
B.K.S Iyengar says the body should adjust to the asana (as the ancient asanas produce specific physiological and psychological benefits) the idea is not to adapt the asana to your body. We use props to achieve the correct shape and therefore produce the desired movements and reactions within and without.
Photo 1 tying the feet induces serenity and helps to work the inner legs and ankles as much as the outer.
Photo 2 using a belt to broaden the shoulders and draw them away from the ears. This releases stress and tension in the shoulders
Photo 3 tying the legs and feet helps the legs to rotate inwards and therefore create space in the lumbar spine and gluteal crease. The chairs help you to achieve all the marvellous benefits of the Queen of asanas ( or ) without putting any strain on the neck. In fact, this releases the neck and helps to lengthen the neck.
Photo 4 creating height in the twist
Photo 5 tying the legs in helps to keep the knees in and protects the knees. Reclined lotus is much easier and more accessible than seated lotus.
Photo 6 holding a block behind the back opens the front and side chest but it’s challenging so I helped them by tying the arms too.
Photo 7 over chairs makes this pose way more accessible. It Stretches the front thighs and front groins. Prevents varicose veins.
Photo 8 ( ) over a chair with legs rested on back of chair. Legs tied. See photo 3 comment.
Photo 9 on chairs . Opens back of leg but can also be used to prevent hyperextension in the back of knee with the bar of the chair
Photo 10 the belt acts as a hammock for the back of the head and helps to lengthen neck and as the weight of the head releases the belt down, it also draws the extended leg towards you. It is, in fact, way nicer than it looks 😳😜

✨Adjustments on Retreat ✨
Photo 1 -
My bottom foot 🦶 drawing sacrum in and coccyx down. My top foot 🦶 drawing shoulders in to lift sternum
Photo 2 -
My Hands 🙌 Drawing feet back and up to encourage shoulders back and chest up.
My legs 🦵 Keeping her knees in to create space in gluteal crease and lumbar.
Photo 3 -
Adjusting support so she can have an open chest for deeper breathing and the correct support under her head so that her breath is able to flow freely in the throat area
Photo 4 -
Gently pushing the shoulders down to the floor and releasing them away from the ears
Photo 5 -
Rotating her shoulders outwards and drawing them down slightly
Photo 6-
Drawing her legs down and releasing her feet to the sides. She has a belt here too (tying her legs about hip width or slightly wider) to keep the pose compact (otherwise the energy escapes too much) and the belt also provides stability in the hips.
Photo 7-
My Feet 🦶 are gently pushing her shins to encourage them back towards the wall. This helps protect the knees in the pose and gives guidance to the direction of the legs in the pose.
Photo 8-
Softly massaging to her temples to aid relaxation and release stress.

Photo 1 - Working with Blocks, Chairs, Wall and Belts help us to Honour the shape and Alignment of the asana.

Video 1- a chair helps to keep the leg aligned and prevents hyperextending into the back of the knee. It also relaxes the front brain and shoulders and rests the heart ❤️ you can hold this pose. With (who only recently learned to walk again after knee surgery! superstar 💫)
Video 2 - a way to protect the back of the knee from hyperextending is to place a block behind the calf to stop it pushing back and being too aggressive. This helps to extend the front thigh which often becomes short with strong hamstrings.
Video 3 -understanding the energetic body and that yoga is a Science (as well as an Art) you begin to realise that alignment, shape and balance are everything - when it is all aligned the energy (prana) is able to flow 🌟🌟💫💫 It’s all just a process 😝🌟❤️
These poses can be held for long periods..2/3/4 minutes, timed, on both sides because discipline it’s important too 😝

Video 4 - Ardha Chandrasana -Half Moon. 🌙 this is a great go to pose for almost instant back pain relief .. make sure you keep alignment (hip lined up with ankle) in standing leg , my leg and arm could be a little more aligned in this 🙄….

Good luck. Happy Practising 🫶
