Yoga back from Mysore

Since I came back from Mysore, I tried to keep up with what I have learned.

I have learned that you don't need a fancy place to practice. No need for fancy clothes and yoga matts. You just need to PRACTICE.

Well, that sounds good in theory.

In reality, you do need a place to practice. And you need to practice CORRECTLY. Lately, my back has been bothering me. So I went to see another instructor at a fancy yoga place. She told me that my alignment was not correct. She suggested that I keep stretching hamstings and leg muscles to alleviate pressure on the back. I guess I will be changing the way I have been practicing, as I am learning that bad practice will lead to bad things, like pain.

That was my reality check, now I can continue with my practice :)
