After my recent Cortisone injections, my SI Joints are feeling a little less painful.
The relief is not jaw-dropping, but it is worth the pain of the injection. At least right now it feels worth it.
Feeling slightly better gave me a little bit of extra energy to do a little stretching.
My yoga practice is very very basic.
Yoga, like any other artform, takes practice, patience, and regular intervals to really induce the muscle memory and keep strength.
There have only been three or four specific poses that I can perform on a consistent basis, but tonight I am starting again with those poses, in hopes to increase my yoga repertoire again.
My biggest priority is paying attention to the physical cues my body gives me.
A little stretch, some heavy breathing, getting a bit of a sweat going, those are all positive things. An uptick in pain that does not feel like mild muscle stretching - yeah that's not so good.
Start low, go slow.
What I am focusing on right now is that today I am ABLE to do a little bit of yoga.
That's a total win in my books.
