30 Days of Summer Yoga-Day 11

Hello West Allis :) 

Yesterday I told you about some general things yoga can help with. Today, I wanted to take a moment to tell you a little something about my own journey...

One of the many things that yoga has helped me improve is my posture.  I suffer from a host of back issues including scoliosis, sciatica, widening of my sacroiliac joint, and at least one bulging disc. As a result of all of that damage, I was medicated for years and even had several rounds of injections to help control the pain.  It didn't happen overnight, but through consistent yoga practice my back strengthened enough that I stopped needing medication.  I stand much taller than I used to, and I am grateful for that.  

Do you have an everyday ache or pain that you think yoga will help with?  Come on down for a class or two....they're free for the next 19 days :)
