With the increasing popularity of practices like mindfulness, yoga, and breathwork, people in the Western world are thinking about their breath more than ever — and more intentionally than ever. But not only is it necessary for life, the rhythm of our breath has countless effects on our bodies. We’re going to explore how your breath can be used to say “yes” more in your life.

Take a moment to ask yourself: What is one insight or lesson that I’ve learned this past week, month, or year? And what am I grateful for right now? And take a few deep breaths and think on that. This allows us to be present, to be clear, and to be reminded of the lessons of the past.

Welcome to Wednesday Q&A, where you ask questions and we answer them!

• Do you believe that foot problems can be reversed?
• Women who always wear heels and find flats painful, did their fascia adjust and just bind up?

The essence of what we teach in the yoga world is the balance of Sthira and Sukha, or the hard and the soft.

We can apply this concept to our body and our movement, but we can also apply it to our mind. Where in your life do you need to firm up? Where do you need to soften? Because when we find this balance, we are at ease.

You are probably not pandiculating enough.

What is pandiculation? Imagine a cat or dog when they get up after a long nap: They stretch out, tails up, claws out. Pandiculation is that act of stretching upon waking up, and it’s an inborn response that all vertebrates have. But somewhere along the way in our lives, we stop that pandiculating. But there are ways that you can learn to restore posture and movement again.
