DETAIL + DEPTH | This exercise is similar to the previous hamstrings (and calf!) strengthener, but is done asymmetrically and with the @tuneupfitness #courageousball instead of a bolster. Depending on how much the ball is inflated, the ball will provide more "give" than a firm bolster (mine is only ~70% inflated, so quite squishy). Experimenting with a different prop allows us to feel the difference in the body, which can educate us as to how different props have unique properties that can be used for specific purposes. The intellectual pursuit of understanding how a ball as a prop is different than a firm bolster actually occurs in the felt body, a place where language, reason, and education will only distract from knowledge. In this yoga-inspired inquiry, to satisfy the mind, one must use the body. 🙏🏽 Stay and breathe, then switch sides. © 2018 Ellen Huang Saltarelli #detailanddepth #alignmentyoga#yogaalignment #yogachair #chairyoga #Yoga #yogaprops #propyourpose #yogapractice#yogaeverydamnday#practiceandalliscoming #iyengaryoga #glutes #hamstrings #pelvictilt #psoasstretch #yogaforeverybody (at Eagle Rock, Los Angeles) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoRedAygIoc/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=hp8yuym4y8fz
