I have MS and have just decided in the last 3 days to start yoga. It has already opened up my world. If anyone else has health problems let's talk.

I have scoliosis but then I was interested in doing yoga luckily I was advised by my doctor that it was fine to practice it. So how do you find your first few days of yoga?

I am enjoying it immensely; I am not sure if I am doing everything properly, but since I have started, I feel so much better. How about you?

Good luck with the practice and don't worry about whether your are doing it right or wrong at the present time ... if will fall into place the more you practice the biggest point is that you are doing it!

Have a great day!

same here Meghansgram, I feel so healthy plus I noticed how I improved my posture. Seriously it keeps me going, it serves as a physical therapy for me. Thanks to this site I get to talk with other yoga enthusiasts.

Thank you for your encouragement; I'm going to look into either ordering a DVD on beginning Yoga or my son know a place where he may be able to pick up one cheaper than buying it on the internet.
Do you feel healthier since you started doing yoga? I know I certainly do. I'm even walking a bit more and that is something since I limp and have to use a cane to steady myself plus, I wear out quite fast physically.

My stamina and flexibility are improving everyday and my mental outlook is stronger as well. I got some mildly upsetting news yesterday; before yoga, I would have gone into a depression and stayed there for quite sometime but I bounced back very quickly and accepted the news and figured out how to put a positive spin on it. My Faith in my Lord is growing stronger because I have more mental alertness so that I can spend more time with Him in prayer and in His Word.

Thank you for your encouragement. When I lost the use of my left leg and my balance became really bad, I had to give up dancing, walking and bike riding. For years, everything that I have tried to do has exhausted me and I gave up; yoga has invigorated me; I am doing a little walking, all be it very slow; I'm moving to music again and am thinking about starting to use weights. My whole mind set has changed for the positive.

based from your story I can say that you're such a brave woman Meghansgram, you didn't let depression reign over you. May you always have the drive to be a better individual despite of the problems, nice to know that yoga is helping you a lot in terms of feeling much better and healthier.
