Jason likes to say that it’s more dangerous to be sedentary and not use your body than it is to use your body and risk injury. Having said that, we can prevent certain vinyasa yoga injuries by simply educating ourselves and tweaking our approach to sequencing.

In this episode, which we first published earlier this year, Jason and I tackle yoga injuries. 

We cover a lot of ground, but here are a few top-level points:

  • Why there’s no one “right” way to approach any pose in order to prevent common vinyasa yoga injuries.
  • The four key things you should consider in regards to injury prevention
  • The types of hands-on adjustments that Jason advocates against
  • How to find equilibrium and balance in yoga poses
