Comments on: How Yoga Can Transform Your Life One Class At A Time: #CMSC16 https://anempoweredspirit.com/yoga/ Cathy Chester, MS Advocate shares decades of wisdom Sun, 30 May 2021 21:10:53 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9 By: become a qualified yoga instructor NYC https://anempoweredspirit.com/yoga/#comment-29224 Tue, 25 Oct 2016 01:33:57 +0000 http://anempoweredspirit.clients.kidaweb.com/2016/06/22/yoga/#comment-29224 Each time you practice yoga, you take your joints through their full range of motion. This can help prevent degenerative arthritis or mitigate disability by "squeezing and soaking" areas of cartilage that normally aren't used. Joint cartilage is like a sponge; it receives fresh nutrients only when its fluid is squeezed out and a new supply can be soaked up.

These women really have thought it through to work with the MS community. I've dabbled in yoga and enjoyed it, but with my recent knee injury, I can't do many of the poses, so taking a break for a while. Thanks for an informative post!

I've never been able to get into it but Michael was going to class almost every day for a while. We should probably both start doing it again!

I do that all the time, and I'm in my "zone" and it works well for me. There is no wrong way to do it. Go for it! Let me know how it goes. Namaste.

I have never found Yoga classes easy because I always felt I was doing it 'wrong' and not getting the positions right. Reading this I can see that having that attitude is a bit daft - it's like saying I won't go to swimming class because I can't swim! Great interview.

I came to yoga late in life but love it! I feel completely whole when I finish such a great feeling of well-being.

Thanks for teaching me something new and for reading my post.

How wonderful of you to share your thoughts and knowledge here. Best of luck to you always and take good care. Cathy

Isn't she incredible? I hope you can make it next year. Thanks so much for following my blog. Best always, Cathy

I missed CMSC this year, but have taken Megan's class at CMSC. She is an awesome teacher! Great to see this trend in MS research. As someone who loves and practices yoga, it has changed my life as well and helps health issues I have. Thanks for your inspiring article, Cathy! I love following your work.
