Yoga for Longevity: Mobility, Mindfulness, and Vibrant Health

Yoga That Grows With You: Adapting for Aging, Injury, and Life Changes | Ep. 13


Listen Later

As your body and life change, your yoga practice should too. In this gentle and grounding episode, yoga therapist Mikah Horn explores how to honor your evolving body without judgment—whether you’re recovering from surgery, navigating midlife transitions, or simply noticing shifts in energy and ability.

You’ll learn how yoga can adapt to every season of life, how to reframe “limitations” as opportunities for wisdom, and why letting go of how your practice used to look opens space for deeper connection and ease.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
  • How to adapt poses for injury recovery or limited mobility
  • Why non-attachment (Aparigraha) is essential to sustainable yoga practice
  • How grief and acceptance can both be part of evolving with your body
  • Simple ways to modify practice for aging joints and shifting energy
  • How to redefine strength, progress, and “doing enough” in your practice
  • Practical examples of adapting Child’s Pose and other shapes with props or support
