Yoga for Neck Pain- starting a personal journey 01/21/2018 So, I've been on radio silence for a while. There are a lot of reasons for that- normally it's that I'm a busy full time employee and grad student (excuses, excuses). The past six or seven months have been different though: I haven't felt that curious. I suffered a neck injury last summer that in many ways didn't seem like a big deal, but it became one. It affected my work, my social life, and my physical activity. I am normally an avid runner and cyclist, and hike as much as I can in the

Yoga for Neck Pain: Days 9-11 01/31/2018 While I'm not doing great at a daily update, I'm doing well at the daily yoga practice!! It's day 11, and today was the first day since the car accident back in June that I didn't have to take ibuprofen for my neck. I was in class from 9-3, which is usually pretty tough for me, and I didn't get nearly the stiffness that I normally do. Now, I can't necessarily attribute that to the daily yoga-- today also happens to be two weeks since I got steroid injections in my neck, which is about the

Yoga for Neck Pain: Day 8 01/28/2018 I was pretty excited to do yoga after work today. It was another 12 hour shift, but not quite as long as the last two days. I relaxed a bit before I started day number 8. This one was more challenging than I expected. I don't know if it was the length or what, but all my joints felt strangely crunchy in a lot of the poses. I do feel like I've gotten pretty consistent at the vinyasa flow segments of these videos though. I could just feel every joint in my neck and spine pulling and cracking with
