Imagine my shock when I wasn't allowed any input for what we bought (whether furniture or decor) and then had to pay a $640 bill for everything we were allowed to get.

HINT: ....... as long as you have a comfortable chair to sit in ...... I suggest you just let "them" decide the rest .......

Got a special fork, or do you just grab one from the silverware drawer when Mrs. Humfrz ain't lookin'?

I've read that yoga helped Kareem Abdul-Jabbar avoid injury during his NBA career. It's all in the stretching.

But daily stretching in general is a good habit to get into I supposed. I do this and power walk around the building like those crazy mall walkers during my break at work.

Back issues suck.

A proper yoga routine builds strength to balance the flexibility. Flexibility alone isnwhat leads to injury in most cases. A good teacher can modify to meet your needs, and you slowly work your way to full poses and sequences.

For injury, Iyengar - its origins are shared with Ashtanga, but the originator had injury's and had to do things differently. I practice Ashtanga, but had the benefit of an amazing teacher.

Most good teachers sit unpaid at the sidelines lamenting the $1000 yoga certification leading institutions to hire crap teachers for teach...

More than anything, it's the daily practice. I go weeks between flare-ups needing a bit of advil, and then only so I can sleep. Very slowly getting better.

I did yoga for a few years while in college, the classes were free and it was a great way to get in a work out without lifting weights. I really should have kept up with it. I have this weird thing with my back (maybe nerves or something, dunno, it never sticks around long enough for me to go to my doctor) that didn't really come up when I was regularly doing yoga. Now it's a once or twice a month thing where I get a tingly sensation just below my right shoulder blade. Shit sucks.

Im planning on getting a gym membership for the winter, and am hoping the place I end up at offers yoga classes.

Imagine the shock when you are married, asked for your input, and find out your input does not matter at all. Why do they even bother to ask?

Until you eventually figure out how to make your wants seem like their idea. Then life has reached perfect balance.

Good info. Thank you. I will look into this.
