Sometimes, we just need to have a yoga chat. Ya know? So that's what today's Mat Matters video is--a little chat about something yoga-related that's been on my mind. Since I don't want to give too much away (how fun is a chat if you already know what's going to be said?), I'll just state this important background info: Everyone's bones are shaped differently. My left humerus is a different length than your left humerus. My femur may be shorter or longer than yours. My scapula may be wider than yours. Similarly, everyone's skeleton is put together differently. Yes, we have the same basic bones in the same basic places, but we're all different in how these bones fit together to create the magical puzzle of our bodies. So, given these simple facts, we just can't expect our bodies to do every yoga pose as shown in the books, or by our teachers, or by the yogis next to us. WE'RE JUST TOO DIFFERENT! Thus, today's video. You can watch here or on my YouTube Channel. Thanks for chatting ;)
