“When connective tissue is freer, bones and posture shift into a more optimal position. By releasing long-held tensional patterns, the body and the mind are more at ease. Yoga is a great way of manipulating these tissues. By using the strength of some muscles to lengthen others, or by using the ground or gravity as resistance, we can actively lengthen our connective tissues. As a result, we can realign our own skeleton.”
