Transformation Spotlight: Pavani’s Journey to Stronger Bones! We’re thrilled to share an inspiring story of strength and perseverance from our very own community member, Pavani Challa! At 49 years young and residing in California, USA, Pavani embarked on her wellness journey 5 years ago. Before joining the MyYogaTeacher platform, Pavani faced a significant health challenge: a diagnosis of Osteopenia, bordering on Osteoporosis. Driven to take control of her health and prevent further progression, Pavani sought a solution that could fit her busy lifestyle. The flexibility and ease of finding the right coaches on MyYogaTeacher led her to connect with the wonderful Anupamaa Deshpandey @anupama-2 Together, Pavani and Anupamaa crafted a truly holistic routine. Imagine this: three days of empowering weight training paired with two days of grounding yoga, all complemented by personalized nutrition guidance tailored to support Pavani’s bone health. The results? Absolutely incredible! In just two years of consistent practice, Pavani’s bone density, which stood at -8.5% in October 2022, has risen by a remarkable 6.5% by December 2024! She’s now on the verge of achieving normal bone density – a testament to her dedication and Anupamaa’s expert guidance. Pavani’s advice to others on their fitness and health journeys is simple yet powerful: “Consistency is key to see the results in your exercise routine. Start small and slowly work towards your goals. Your health is the best gift you can give to yourself and your loved ones, and seek the support of platforms like MyYogaTeacher and their professional coaches to stay motivated.” Let’s all celebrate Pavani’s incredible progress and the hope her story offers to so many! @anupama-2 thank you for sharing this with us! @aarti-73 @kp-9 @aditya-55 @barbara-130 @barkha-19 @charine-1 @carrie-121 @ @emma-81 @gail-40 @isheta-1 @jackie-18 @jennifer-708 @jenny-178 @jitendra-1 @kajal-62 @lisa-1115

@twinkle-1 It’s different for everyone in my view

Myth: Yoga is just a fancy form of stretching. While increased flexibility is definitely a benefit, yoga is so much more! It integrates breath work (pranayama), strength building, balance, mindfulness, and even philosophy. It’s a holistic practice that engages your mind, body, and spirit. What’s a benefit of yoga you’ve experienced that goes beyond just stretching?

When I was doing my TTC last year, my teacher would often say - “The yoga pose you avoid the most is the one you need the most.” This quote kept me motivated and going through the TTC and inspires me to this day as well. What yoga quote deeply resonates with you and why? Share it below and let’s inspire each other with the wisdom of the practice! @aarti-73 @ambujam-1 @barbara-130 @tch-brijesh-1 @barkha-19 @chene-1 @chenthil-1 @dharminder-3 @diksha-21 @ekta-103 @emma-81 @grace-137 @goutham-7 @hector-12 @haritha-77 @inju-1 @isheta-1 @jennifer-708 @jackie-18 @kp-9 @kathleen-1 @kanupriya-3 @lata-52 @maria-5 @np-2 @nisha-8 @pinane-1 @pradeep-62 @raman-42 @rashmi-46 @renita-8 @sarita-53 @sanchita-13 @sahitya-14 @tavaria-1 @tch-umesh-2 @vinay-32 @vedant-206 @ximena-12 @yuseli-1 @ziaudeen-1

Hi @kathleen-1 Welcome to the community! I’m Ani Harish, community manager with MyYogaTeacher Thank you for reaching out and sharing your experience. I understand how frustrating and concerning persistent neck and shoulder pain can be, especially after a pinched nerve and potential shoulder injury. It’s definitely wise to be cautious with neck stretches, and I appreciate you sharing your concerns about chronic pain. It sounds like you’re already aware of the benefits of stretching, which is a great start. However, given the persistence of your pain, especially the shoulder discomfort, it’s essential to approach this with a tailored and gentle approach. Here are a few things to consider: Professional Assessment: Since you’ve been experiencing this for a while, consulting a physical therapist or osteopath would be very beneficial. They can accurately assess your condition and provide personalized guidance. Gentle Movement: While stretching is helpful, focusing on gentle movement and range-of-motion exercises can also be very effective. Mindfulness and Breathing: Incorporating mindfulness and deep breathing techniques can help manage pain and reduce stress, which can often exacerbate discomfort.

@ani.harish @kuldeep is there any new event that is coming up? I am interested in something for eye health
