Working with my Scoliosis.

8th August, 2008.

Yoga and Scoliosis.

There is still a slight 'jog' in my spine in the lower thoracic.

I notice that I have to work to keep my shoulders from moving along with my ribcage. I only want my ribs to move, but this is not as easy as it seems. It takes a lot of concentration I find.

During my practice today I found that I was feeling rather emotional. At other times while I have been using yoga to work on my scoliosis I found that I have felt agitated, but not 'emotional.' It was quite different. I should mention that I was also listening to the opening ceremony of the Olympics. That may be why, but I think it was due to the focus I was putting on my spine.
