i’ve just started taking yoga. i have rheumatoid arthritis and carpal tunnel, which prohibits some of the things i can do right now, but i can tell that the stretching and exercises are helping strength-wise.
anyway, just wanted to say hi and look around and learn!

Hello and welcome to the forum!
I saw that your other post was about raw foods and I thought you may also be interested in checking out this thread: http://www.yogaforums.com/forums/f18/arthritis-diet-indra-devi-81.html .
Namaste
thanks so much! i definitely will check it out.
So glad you’ve found yoga! I teach two people suffering from Rheumatoid Arthritis who have seen great improvement in their mobility and substantial reduction in their pain since they began practicing. I hope the same is true for you.
The gifts of yoga come from all you ARE doing – no sense in worring about the stuff you’re not doing (yet ;)). Enjoy!
