The first step to gaining flexibility is simply to show up on your mat. During your first class, you probably won’t be able to touch your toes, never mind do a backbend. But if you stick with it, you’ll notice a gradual loosening, and eventually, seemingly impossible poses will become possible. You’ll also probably notice that aches and pains start to disappear. That’s no coincidence. Tight hips can strain the knee joint due to improper alignment …of the thigh and shinbones. Tight hamstrings can lead to a flattening of the lumbar spine, which can cause back pain. And inflexibility in muscles and connective tissue, such as fascia and ligaments, can cause poor posture.
Most people have no idea how good their body is designed to feel. Yogic stretching is like a constant battery charger and if you can make a regular yoga practice for yourself it wont take you long to reap the benefits.
