Speaking of intense, today I plan on doing Erich Schiffmann's Lotus - that one is always intense!

I did enjoy Lotus, although I definitely did a lot of modifying (and didn't get into lotus at all, LOL).

ETA - I’d definitely need to modify Lotus too. I have fixed my right glute med issue, but I have some sort of joint impingement & ROM restriction in my right hip joint. I’m going for an X-ray when I get home, & I fear it’s likely osteoarthritis. But I’ve been walking a lot here though without any major issue so I’m glad I stuck with the IMS treatments & PT exercises.

Day 34:
~Altar of the Heart - first 36 min. I had a lot of streaming issues, it kept pausing and I had to go back to the start and move it to where I left off. Frustrating, but a lovely practice none the less. I’ll try another day, might be high neighborhood use as it’s Sunday morning here and people are home from work.

Pam, I agree, the twist version of pigeon felt great from my shoulder all the way down to my QL! I've done Lotus before where I did briefly get into to pose at the end (lying version), but oh well - it's great for hip mobility regardless. That is frustrating about the streaming issue with Altar! I might try to do that on Valentine's Day (which I think will be the very end of my sadhana, or maybe just after). Keep us posted on your medical follow-up after you get home.

I felt really good afterwards, like I got a good upper body stretch. |
