Before sticking to a regular yoga practice, I had suffered from chronic lower back pain for a number of years, so I know how depressing, frustrating and debilitating it can be trying to cope with a long-term injury.

It is easy to feel defeated and hopeless, but what I have learned is that instead of feeling angry and victimised by my limitations, I could choose to be proactive towards my self-care, and try to understand the message that my body was giving to me.
