When coping with chronic pain with exercise

If you're thinking of taking a yoga class, making it out of your comfort zone should be one of the most important decisions you make.

That doesn't mean you have to start a new class in order to have fun and feel like more of a member.

There are many different styles of yoga that are offered in a variety of locations. Yoga is a discipline that doesn't require a large amount of expenditure or special expertise to practice. Depending on your willingness to commit to a program, you can practice virtually anywhere. However, if you take the class outside your comfort zone, you will feel more comfortable and more energized.

If you don't feel like you're challenging yourself enough or you want to spend more time in the studio to try out a new class, then you can't make it to the next level.
