- Your toes are just accessories, you don’t actually need them (balancing, finding your centre, avoiding windmilling your arms when in tree pose)
- It’s YOUR practice, do what feels organic (I’m sorry, there is nothing organic about some of these poses (king pigeon pose??), but I take your point – wiggle it if it feels good)
- Do not let go of the rope (otherwise things go bump and it hurts)
- Look at your nose, not your neighbour (especially if you have neck issues)
- Look at your toes, not your neighbour (you can cause temporary paralysis or at the very least, it really hurts)
- Wear comfortable, loose clothing, but not too loose cuz you spend a lot of time in downward dog
(and you thought yoga was for wimps!)
Namaste
