Wow classic shoulder stretch❤️ I can finally do 90sec lying - on the - belly - hands - up - the - wall stretch, comfortably without shaking. Consistency pays

[@DoronYoga]

Yes, consistency and patience bring results :)

[@SamanthaScorpio]

This stretch feels soooo nice-- I could sit there all day!

[@DoronYoga]

Cool. Happy to hear.

[@zankarpanchani9886]

My shoulder is asking help specially left ....thank u doron sir

[@laurenhanoch]

One of my favorite shoulder openers. Awesome after carrying my toddler around. Such a great release at the end of the day.

[@DoronYoga]

Happy to hear. One day you will do it together with your sons.

[@denzelmartinez1478]

This helped me like REALLY HELPED ME. I did this exercises for 2 weeks straight and stayed for 5 minutes then after that 2 weeks, I can already do my backbends with a proper form.

[@DoronYoga]

Amazing, so happy to hear! Opening the back is so important. Please share this video and channel with others. Hope your back keeps opening and you keep the practice going!

[@sherules5005]

thanks for sharing -- working on kapotasana and residual tightness in my shoulders -- will definitely try these!

[@DoronYoga]

Awesome! It really changes the practice for my students. Now I know to make a specific prep practice for kapotasana that I teach my ahstangi students. Stay tuned!

[@Tutume1111]

Great vid. Thank you

[@DoronYoga]

You are welcome! I am happy you liked it and hopefully it helped your shoulders!

[@idiotspadeklaptorsk]

One of the best shoulder stretches I've experienced so far. Intense, but deep! It feels like my shoulder muscles are reorganizing themselves. Thank you for the very helpful explanation

This is a very good lesson on how we want our shoulders to be while practicing yoga and how to stretch the shoulders to train them to where we want them to be.I will put this in my routine and see if i see results! Already feeling a nice stretch :)

Brilliant, I'm going to teach this to my students :)

[@DoronYoga]

Nice!

[@sherules5005]

Wow I did this today morning, I couldn't complete the one where you lie on your stomach and stretch your hands on the wall..it was quite intense, I'll keep trying. Bless you 🇰🇪

[@DoronYoga]

Step by step, with patience and compassion! Keep practicing and thank you for the comment! :)

[@brucemcgraw7014]

I'll do these tonight

[@DoronYoga]

How did you feel after doing it?

[@majaaudran2532]

Very painful, have been trying for few days and still a challenge, but I am not giving up 💪

[@DoronYoga]

Practice with patience and compassion and the progress will come!

[@lewisbong5317]

Than you ! I tried on the wall ! I could do it and just need to develop the endurance to stay longer ! I tried to do brief multiple sets of 30 sec to build up my hold .

[@DoronYoga]

That's awesome. Absolutely - a few times 30 sec is a great way to build endurance. Then you can do 35 sec on the first, and go down to 30 after. Focusing on deep exhales really helps. The mind and body then stay more relaxed. Keep me updated how it goes!! Happy shoulder opening!!

[@tamarbryk4071]

Great ty

[@DoronYoga]

Thanks.

[@kaetventure8872]

It's soo painful 😣 but afterwards I can feel such a difference!

[@dabsmomos]

Hi! Which method did u try?

[@DoronYoga]

Katha! I am sure it's a sweet pain! Keep practicing and cherishing the progress! :-)

[@zankarpanchani9886]

Yaaa painful , but then felt difference..in last method

[@shantirajpoot8841]

❤️❤️best video❤️❤️

[@DoronYoga]

Thank you! Keep practicing! 🙏

[@thalienco]

i can see how this is great as a shoulder opener but in the last variation the lumbar suffers as it leads to jamming together the vertebrae in the lower spine as the wall obviously inhibits the chest from drawing forward. I suggest to just stick to the first 2 variations. More intensity? Simply place the hands higher on the wall.

[@DoronYoga]

Thanks for sharing Thalien and for practicing with us 🙏

[@amenaamir480]

wonderful tips

[@amenaamir480]

+Doron Hanoch welcome sir. my shoulder is very weak nd stiff please give me some tips.

[@DoronYoga]

Do this and plenty of shoulder rotations and the dolphin pose. Also check out out new video practice for shoulders. Very well rounded.

[@imrecsikany6349]

Thank You.

With Pleasure.

[@sports872]

These are great. Very hard for me to start really feeling the second stretch at the top of my left shoulder and it got quite warm. I've stopped but I'll go back to the first stretch. Would you say it would be best to see a physio for the issue or a different type of help?

[@DoronYoga]

Happy to hear it was helpful for you. As for the help, it depends whether the pain comes form the muscle tightness or nerve pinching, but definitely worth checking it with professional help if it doesn't release with a time and stretch.

[@Health1stwealth]

Nice explain in few minutes Where do you teach sir ?

[@DoronYoga]

At the moment at Lake Atitlan, DOron Yoga & Zen Center. Check doronyoga.com to learn more.

[@aksk61]

I feel it in my lower back. How can I reduce the sensation in my lower back?

[@DoronYoga]

Keep the tailbone tucked under. Pull your belly a bit inward, and take the easier version to begin with. A bit of low back sensation is OK, especially if it releases after you do some movement when you come out of the pose. try our delicious pose and see if it helps. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rmPNfWVmeJmBgq8

[@iamkocali]

😂 for real... Dont freak out love❤

[@ukrajina2022]

❤

[@Brewmaster757]

So we push our shoulders towards the floor to get a stretch in the armpits. Should we push into the wall too, or just down towards the floor?

[@DoronYoga]

Engage both directions, however be mindful to find the right effort between being in the stretch with calm breath and "pushing".

[@kzagnoli]

How close should you be to the wall in the last one?

[@DoronYoga]

It depends how flexible you are, however it is not a backbend focus exercise but a shoulder stretch so your middle chest and belly can be grounded, try not to lean your head on the wall.

Yes, this will help open your shoulders. Give a try, and let me know how you feel. Please share the video with friends.

@@DoronYoga I feel very better after doing these exercises

[@varunisatycoon]

Last pose hurts testicles ... Any suggestions to obviate that :)

[@DoronYoga]

lie down on a soft blanket. Thanks for giving it a try.

[@zankarpanchani9886]

Sir in monkey method , If I go little bit closer towards wall , then my left hand shivering reason ??

[@DoronYoga]

You can start doing this standing and slowly increase the time of hold before yo go down to the ground. It is normal to feel some tingeling in the hand. You can always release, and do again the next day.
