    51. Yoga Bomb: Your Down Dog Ain't Mine

    join my quiet rebellion here: https://dhugalmeachem.com/quietrebellion take my free foundations course here: https://www.dhugalmeachem.com/livelonglivewell We yoga teachers are a bossy bunch: 'put your foot here", 'feet parallel', 'square your hips', we use phrases like 'simple poses' and 'advanced poses'. Let me show you why this is all because we don't know enough. We don't know enough about deep human difference. By showing you how we are all so very different deep down in our bones, you can instantly see how all the cues you've learned as a teacher are at best on shaky ground. At worst, they injure your students. This info should change the way you think forever as a yoga practitioner and teacher. It did when I found out! Come join me. This episode will work best on my youtube channel where I can show you the bones: https://youtu.be/gyK7L8MY-yQ

NOTE: This episode is best in video, check out my youtube channel. Most yogis (and yoga teachers) think we cannot do yoga poses because of tension in our bodies. You've heard this, your hamstrings are tight, lengthen here... or your shoulders are not open, you need to be more open... But, what if there was a MUCH more obvious reason why some can't do a yoga pose, but another can? What if this reason is not known by most yoga teachers (even the most famous ones).
