@Giles sharing is caring G-man! lol

I do a small yoga routine in the morning; while using my foam roller(it’s one of the hard plastic ones), theragun, some weights and push ups etc helps a lot with my sciatica nerve pain and jus overall working all day on my feet. For sure should get into a longer yoga routine, maybe be one of my new years goals. Def helps set the tone for the day and get my old man body going

@meatmarketdenim1 Can you please share your routine? My partner has sciatica and it would be great to provide a proven method. Appreciate whatever you can share.

@deadendpro
Yeah can def snap a pic of all stuff I use, works the best at preventing care. Once it’s flaired up kinda just gotta roll with it, stretch much as can, walk around, pillows keep foot elevated when sleeping etc. it’s not fun at all. Think I got it the most years back when was a full time dog walker and wearing 3 sizes to small apcs

I may dabble a bit 🪷

[Makarwise]

@Fadez ...I read 'dribble' at first and nodded knowingly... there are other things in your pictures that make me wonder how many people here have a 'turning japanese' thing going on. And I don't mean in the spirit of the Vapours!!

@Makarwise for me it’s mostly Vietnamese I study Plum Village Community of Engaged Buddhism from Thich Nhat Hanh. I also on a personal level study Kriya Yoga under Ryan Kurczak (Babaji / Yogananda lineage). I do love me some Japanese art and jeans tho!

[Makarwise]

@Fadez So many great teachings from Thich Nhat Hanh

Nice... me and my son too. Musō Shinden Ryū

[Makarwise]

@Chap ZNKR setei katas but our lineage is Muso jikiden ryu - brought to the UK in the 70's by Fuji sensei. Iaido and jodo both incredibly mindful arts - and we have a good laugh at the dojo too!

@Matt kneeling chairs brilliant for my back and general posture. I do occasionaly get tangled up in them when I try to quickly stand up...
