Very good exercises, and your voice has a healing quality!🙏

THANK YOU Esther so much for your videos you are my favorite yoga instructor by far I love how you teach the movements and I don't feel like its impossible to do you make it where everyone can do yoga the way you show modified poses as well as regular keep up the good work and happy new year : )

A nice lower back stretch thank you ❤️

Perfect length and content for my meningitis. Adding the "embodied breath" (inspired by Susan Aposhyan's embodiment practice) as I actively paused in each asana really opened the energy around my sacrum and up into my face. Thanks!

Thank you so much!

Great sequence, thanks

I guess this and your other lower back videos are all right, but if you want the BOMB for relieving lower back discomfort, then try slow (like half an hour) Supta Baddha Konasana on a hard surface, which works like a miracle. The "reclining bound angle pose" - and you don't even need to keep your feet anywhere close to your pelvis. Iit should just feel that your tailbone is being pressed into the ground, which is what the whole trick is about. The best part is you don't have to do anything with any muscle, just lie there and let gravity do its work (you will also be amazed how low your knees can go if you just give them time). Perfect for falling asleep or after awakening (if you happen to sleep on the floor, and it's a great reason to sleep there). I discovered this after I first noticed that forcefully pressing my back into a door frame (or even climbing with both legs while pushing back) brings instant relief. But that's sort of brute force and strained and who knows, maybe dangerous (might even produce a popping noise), while lying back relaxed is both beautiful and way more effective. (Ekhart Yoga's lying leg raises, demonstrated in another video, is similar to that, but still weaker because that requires work and your back might actually rise a bit off the floor when you pull your leg up - which defeats the whole purpose.)

hi i have just found your site thanks i really like it all .

👍👍👍

I like most of your yoga exercises specially bedtime yoga I've been doing them for three years and I prefer to do them on bed but not sure if that's okay.

So many siting forward bends to release the tension in lower back. The risk of increasing of pain is significant. What poses would You suggest to balance the potential wrong effects of too many forward bends?

I love you

Hi Esther, Love your videos! in the last shoelace pose, when bending to either side, I feel it more in the outer thighs and bum. Only some in lower back. Is it right or how to modify it? Thanks!
