I am 62 years old and have a fairly bad s-curve scoliosis. It causes quite a bit of lower back pain. I've always been a fairly active person & enjoy things like skiing, alpine and Nordic, swimming etc., but I've noticed lately that not only is my back stiffer, as I age, but the curvature pokes out more,& is more visible. Are there any exercises that.you can suggest that could help any of this?
Thank you,
Pam

I love this pose!! I have been doing this pose unaware that it is a healing yogic pose since childhood. I often do it when am stressed. It calms me immensely. Thanks for all you do! Your videos save me daily!

Hi Adrienne. Found your videos on yoga. Would you be interested in either sharing your videos or posts with us or perhaps writing some content periodically? Our website provides a path forward for cancer patients and cancer survivors. I like your approach to basics and yoga. Many of our survivors want to get started with yoga. Thank you.

In reply to Netti tkins. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Have you been practicing with your mum? i'm unsure as to what she can do, but just a breath practice while holding hands or quiet focused foot massage for her, she might give you one if shes able. especially as a caregiver for your mother, she sees your work and struggles, she may not be able to express her concern, but she does. Let her know your caring for yourself as well. We moms worry about our kids no matter what situation we may be in. She is lucky to have a daughter to care for her and one that obviously loves her. praying for you both! HUGZ!

Hey Adrienne, thank you so much for your videos! You've been part of my life since I found you on YouTube! I was so desperate to begin practicing exercises again after my baby was born but I couldn't find time through my busy working mom days. That's when I found yoga and my life changed. I want you to know you're part of this change and I'm so greatful :)

This is so what I need right now.
Caring for my dying mum at her home.
A special time together but really tiring on the feet, knees, hips and heart!
Doing this pose at the end of the day when I can to relieve those physical pains but good to restore my soul as well. Thank you!

Hi Adriene,

This is one of my favorite restorative postures! Always workin' on them tight hammies... For another foundations of yoga video/series, would you consider doing some basic backbend postures? I feel my practice is very weak in that area, and after doing forwards folds galore I'd like to learn some opposing postures to improve my spinal flexibility in the other direction. Much love.
