A lot of people are lifting weights and exercising with a posture that is already compromised, commonly starting with anterior pelvic tilt due to a weak core, hamstring and glutes, mixing in with shoulders rolled forward with a forward head tilt. Then they go lift weights without focusing on strengthening the weakened muscles or releasing the muscles that are over active and tight.

This is a disaster for the body and causes a lot of issues down the line and corrective training to pull you back into alignment.

One of the best things you can do for yourself is to go get a static posture and dynamic movement assessment by a qualified personal trainer or physio to see how everything is sitting to find out where your body is weak and overcompensating. Then you will be able to retrain the body back into alignment and avoid tight muscles and injuries related to misalignment.

Kati basti performed after Abhyanga (full body massage) last week!

Warm oil on the lower back soaking into the tissues soothes nerves, relieves symptoms of sciatica, reduces inflammation, increases mobility, increases circulation, strengthens lumbar area over time.

PT testimonial from Corey! Coming along in leaps and bounds, we have built the foundation of the core strength now moving onto balancing the strength in lagging muscles with dynamic movements and plyometrics.

Another testimonial from a very devoted Yogi who has not missed a single yoga session since we have started!

What dosha (physical/mental/energetic constitution) are you?

This checklist is good to get a rough idea but as an Ayurveda practitioner we have many other methods we go through to determine this.

Physically you may present yourself as a pitta person (more colour in the skin, light eyes, medium height, naturally muscular very athletic) for a quick example. But you may have the mind of vata (here there everywhere, can’t keep mind on one thing, easily anxious, always moving towards something can’t keep still lots of drive, prone to saying ‘I can’t meditate, I can’t sit still and do nothing’) and the slow digestion of kapha (Low stomach PH) leading to more ama (toxic waste from undigested food in the body).

The beauty of this is that not one single person on this planet has the same constitutional make up, everyone is slightly different.

When you see an Ayurvedic practitioner they can find out exactly what you are and you can eat and treat yourself aligned with your individual make up to balance your doshas and remove disease in the mind or body.

If you’ve seen a doctor and you’re not getting better, it’s because they have removed the symptom without getting to the root cause. Balancing your doshas will get to the root cause.

Flexibility explained through modern science. The more you know what’s happening within you the more motivation/incentive you have to actually practice. Whether you’re into yoga or not you will get something out of these slides!

Ever wondered why you’re not getting better even though you’re doing everything right?

If your dhatus (tissues in the body) are not purified and nourished in the right order the one after it cannot heal. Let’s say my blood isn’t purified, then my muscles, my fat, my bones, my nervous system and my sexual organs cannot heal.

Rasa dhatu: 5 days to heal. Rakta dhatu: 5/10 days to heal. Mamsa dhatu: 10/15 days to heal. Meda dhatu: 15/20 days to heal. Asthi dhatu: 20/25 days to heal. Majja dhatu: 25/30 days to heal. Shukra dhatu: 35 days to heal.

Each tissue takes time to heal, they must be healed in the correct order otherwise you will see no results.
