Hi,
I attended one of your workshops recently and you gave us an exercise to loosen up the lumbar area. I have chronic lumbar pain from a yoga pose I did wrong a couple of years ago. I have your joint-freeing CD and use it, but the pose you showed us isn’t on it…and as I recall, it was a bit harder, with the leg (or legs?) extended. Can you help me recall how to do it? Thanks!
Namaste, Susan
I suspect what you are asking for is the sacroiliac mobilization exercise done by sitting in Z pose with the feet placed to the side. One foot adjacent to inner knee other foot beside outer pelvis. First part is to rock the pelvic back and forth 12X then lift the hip of the foot outside it and turn the thigh into internal rotation so your torso will twist. Move in and out of both motions 12X until your body releases hip or lumbar pain due to improper motion of sacroiliac. More details in person or from any of my students, graduates are listed on my website. www.yogatherapycenter.org namaste mukunda
