Practice Point #2 - Knee Injury

I received a question from Susan from South Africa. Their question is...

Can you suggest a sequence for endometriosis?

I have injured my left knee. How does one heal and continue your yoga practice?

Big questions to answer.

How to move forward with the physical postures is not something I can help you with within the blog.

But you can find all the support you need for this in the Yogabranches Home Yoga Practice Membership.

I’ve had knee surgery twice and recovered to have a satisfying practice:)

How does one heal and continue your practice?

They go together. Your knee will heal with time and you will find you can practice more yoga.

But first, you need to modify your practice for your knee.

When we have an injury usually there is more mental work to be done than physical.

Like letting go of what you could be used to do and coming to terms with the limited practice you can now do.

Look at it positively. Rather than thinking about all the things you can’t do. Think about all the poses you can do and practice them.

Learn about the poses you can do that will actually be healing for the knee and you will be inspired to practice these because you know you are doing yourself good.

Most of my injury healing happened when I was in acceptance of it, rather than resisting it.
