Either the goal of yoga is to be free, or the goal of yoga is to get it right. You can't really have it both ways. Because if you choose freedom, you have to divest yourself of that crazy idea that you have to get it right. Leslie Kaminoff

More and more I am seeing people who are suffering from scoliosis pain as well as observing the actual visible manifestations in their bodies. Times it seems as though there is nothing to be done. So many people have not found any relief accept with medication.
I to suffer from a curvature in my spine and one hip lower than the other. This throws off my whole body.
There are many solutions that all work together. The approach I take is different as I look at the whole body and afterwatching a person "handle their scoliosis pain" I then begin moving in slowly kind of in the back door so to speak to work our way into dealing with the issue. Pain relief is the goal. The actual scoliosis causes so many other imbalances that they have to be addressed first. The body is amazing and has a unique way of working things out to protect itself. Many times the low back takes the brunt of things but also the feet. Myofascia constricts to protect us and then "it is on".
One trick is tomassage my feet every morning with a tennis ball as I am making my water with lemon. This releases alot of constriction in my feet and then gives me a good platform of freedom from pain there, helping my arches to lift. I am able to stand up straighter taking pressure off other joints. Remember it is "ALL" connnected. This works and gets relief from pain . Watch this simple video on how to use a tennis ball to begin releaseing myofascia.
Also my diet has a big impact on the pain in my body hence the lemon water. This creates an alkaline state in my body decreasing inflamation. I am just saying I want to be pain free and I will do this simple stuff to get results.

Had an amazing morning with my friend Marianne. She asked me to observe her kids who are special needs. They were beautiful. I was surprised how I intuitively looked at them from a Pita, Kapha, Vata window. We made great progress. It appears they are disconnected yet they are so connected to themselves. They have their world and from where I was sitting not having to deal with "our" world can be a blessing. These children are kids bottom line special needs are not. They have their own little personalities, wants, needs and desires. I learned a lot from them. Thank you God for the opportunity.

I have had the good fortune of studying with a man named Roger Cole. He is a wonderful Yogi and Doctor. He has taught me some valuable tools about healing and health. Under no-uncertain terms every yogi should round out their prcatice with restoative postures. Also every person on the quest to heal emotionally or physically must practice restorative yoga. There is a deep relaxation in the muscles and a unparrelled relaxation of the mind. In my opinion without this Deep Relaxation occuring first there is little room to manuver on the journey to wholeness. I have experienced this when I intuitively went to Iyengar restorative yoga classes after my car accident. I now know why I healed so quickly from a devasting, life changing incident.

What I have learned on my journey to becoming a yoga therapist is until a person has engaged their parasympathetic nervous system as in restorative yoga it is more difficult to begin the healing process physically or mentally.
