As with any health claims, it’s important not to take them just at face value. My understandings are influenced by both the science and personal experience. I offer a non-dogmatic approach inspired by many schools of yoga and adaptable to your personal needs and abilities. Combined with healthy diet and a variety of physical activity, yoga can be a vital part of your health and wellbeing. Making your practice a spiritual one is a choice rather than a requirement.
