No, it does not matter. Because of natural skeletal variation, some people’s lumbar curve is more pronounced than others. You may remember this from YYTT!
You're absolutely right, you are encouraged to swap out poses that are in the same family, which can often help you to get a satisfying stretch without triggering pain or discomfort.
I love the details you share about your practice, Bob. The consistency of your practice is remarkable! I heard of your concern that I wasn't responding to comments. My yoga world has ramped up since the new year, and big things are coming – which is why I've had to pause on responding to individual comments. I'm still reading them all and giving them a heart to show my appreciation, because your comments inspire others in their practice, and that's what the Yin Studio community is all about! ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for reminding me of this blog post and video! There weren't too many of my regular followers who liked all the huffing and puffing and jumping around, so I guess you're part of the niche crowd...
