I just read (or reread, I guess I had seen it before) this article. And promised myself to practice being mindful and respect my body in my yoga practice. Although I'm generally careful, I tend sometimes to push myself a little too much. And we all know that it's the breath that comes first, so if I can't maintain my ujjayi breath and/or feel some irritation, then I should simply back off a little. This again brings me back to my previous post - yoga is a mindfulness practice.
It's late now and after a shower I'll go to bed and read in my Yoga as Medicine book.
Btw, there are some interesting articles on Doug Keller's website on the topic. Maybe I should buy also his Yoga as Therapy books. They sound interesting.
