  • Hello scoliosis family!

  • This is the first in a series of videos I'll be making,

  • that will be less than a minute long

  • and basically they're tips for helping you live with scoliosis using yoga.

  • I've got bronchitis at the moment;

  • Everything's feeling pretty compressed in the lungs,

  • so it's a nice lead-in to this tip, which is all about

  • bringing some love to the compressed area.

  • It's as simple as putting your hand on the concave side,

  • of the scoliosis, and breathing into that area.

  • As you breathe in,

  • imagine the ribs are expanding,

  • imagine the lungs are expanding,

  • and imagine you're lengthening your spine.

  • Just like this (inhales through nose, ribs expand)

  • Just repeat this lovely deep breath

  • as many times as you need to,

  • to feel some movement in that area.
