Struggling with your dropbacks?
Make it more easy with extra opening😉
One important thing in all backbends is to activate LEGS - Without activating the legs, all the pressure goes to the back. So always have in mind: STRONG LEGS
1: opening hips and lengthening the front with blocks under the chest
2: Use a strap
3: Salabhasana B
4: Bhekasana
5: Dhanurasana
6: pigeon stretch
7: Urdhva Dhanurasana with hands on ankles and head in the ground

#Dropbacks..
Haven’t done this in a few years now ..
Dropbacks used to be a part of my regular practice ..
Until my lower back said BAS ! .. So I listened & respected it … reluctantly acknowledging dropbacks maybe a thing of the past for me …
Until a few weeks ago .. an emotional upheaval sent me digging deeper into my daily practice of release & letting go ..
AND ..
The spring in my step is back & also
my spine has started to find its supple self back .. allowing & accessing deeper bends ..
All emotional trauma gets stored in the physical self leading to ache, pain & eventually disease ..
Backbends have always been scary af for me cos they bring to fore stored trauma ( So many times, I have had students breakdown completely in class ) but then as one allows & goes deeper.. they help RELEASEEEE so much !
& now I also feel maybe I won’t need the wall assist for too long ..

It’s after long Time gap that I am starting up with my Standing Backbend Practice And I can clearly see that they have become so rough and patchy ,
But I am happy to be back with my #dropbacks and also enjoying my slow pace in the both the drop and lift using the minimum and least possible momentum 😇 #practiceandalliscoming #practicenotperfection

Maybe you noticed that backbending is my favorite ☺️ With the right method, patience, and mindful and regular practice backbending is incredibly enriching and transformational for both: the body and the mind.
In this little tutorial I’m sharing with you some accessible steps that will over time help you get your dropbacks.

Progresando adecuadamente con los dropbacks 🥰
Antes practicaba con ese apego a poder conseguir ciertas posturas, este año me he centrado más en ser constante con mi práctica y disfrutarla como tal, no forzar el entrar o conseguir ciertas posturas para no sentirme mejor o peor por conseguirlas. El venir a tu esterilla cada día es suficiente ♥️

OF COURSE MY FIRST FAVORITE THING IS LEARNING TO DO A HANDSTAND IN MY 50s! 🤸♂️
Learning to do a backdrop into wheel at the age of 63 is a very close second! 💁♀️
This was something else I had never done as a kid, but decided last year I really wanted to do it! 👊
Sure, it took me a few months to learn it — and then a little longer to feel confident standing up from wheel — but it was so worth the effort!🙌
I love doing drop backs, and now I do them almost every day! 🙋♀️
Keep challenging yourself — no matter what your age! 😃
