🧘♀️ Yoga Props 🧘♀️
Using props in yoga is not cheating! Tell me what your favourite props are in the comments 👇 Mine are my bolster, blocks and of course my dog 🍁🤣
Using props like blocks, straps, and bolsters in yoga helps bring the floor closer to you, improves your body alignment, and prevents strain. They make poses safe and easy for all body types and skill levels.
Better Alignment and Safety
Good form: Blocks stop your back from rounding in forward folds by keeping your spine long.
No strain: Props let you hold a correct posture without forcing your body past its safe limits.
Less injury: Using extra support protects your joints and muscles from harm.
More Comfort and Access
For all bodies: Beginners and people with tight muscles can do hard poses with ease.
Longer holds: Bolsters and blankets let you relax fully in slow yin or restorative classes.
Joint care: Blankets cushion tender knees and wrists during heavy floor work.
Reaching Further
Extra length: Straps help your hands connect in tight stretches like seated forward bends.
Height changes: Blocks adjust to three levels so you can lower them as your flexibility grows.

Yoga classes in and around West Lothian. Yoga for About Me
I was introduced to my first Yoga Class in 1990.
It opened the door to the life long love of the practice and study of Yoga. A certified teacher with the British Wheel of Yoga, my teaching style has evolved over the years and I draw on inspiration from my teachers, to whom I am ever grateful to, and from the many styles and traditions of yoga I have experienced. Yoga is all inclusive in that everyone at all stages in life can participate in some

Fresh energy. Strong foundations. ✨

Savasana (Co**se Pose, pronounced Sha-vas-anna) is much more than a moment's rest at the end of a yoga class 🧘♀️😴💤
The essential pose is crucial for calming the mind and body, here are additional benefits:
♡ Calms central nervous system, aiding the digestive and immune systems
♡ Calms the mind and reduces stress
♡ Reduces headache, fatigue and anxiety
♡ Helps lower blood pressure
♡ Promotes spiritual awakening and awareness of higher consciousness
♡ Integrates the postures practised in class into the whole body

This month I have been doing my morning meditation and yoga 🧘♀️ outside everyday. With the weather the way its been, its been lovely ☀️
I am grateful that I have my garden to do this 🌿 the bees 🐝 love the clover 🍀
I always bring my first cup of tea ☕️ to my mat and my trusty sidekick 🐕🍁 is by my side. I then plan my day because well...menopause brain...and I do love a list!!!!
Are you enjoying this weather? Is it too hot for you, or just perfect 👌 I'm a little bit in the middle, I love it but I seek shade 😎
Hope you've all been able to fit a little yoga in over the summer break? Classes will resume w/c 10th August
