Hey everybody. Welcome to Yoga Land. I am your special guest host this week,

Jason Crandall. This week, like some of the previous weeks, I'm bringing you a

teacher's companion. This is all about Camel Pose.

And what we do in this episode

is we look at five different ways to improve our Camel Pose.

We break down three of the most common discomforts that people experience in the pose and how to work with them.

So we work with lower back discomfort, neck discomfort, and it's so common, but knee discomfort in this pose.

We also look at two different ways to just improve the pose overall with some specific techniques

and reforming the way we do transitional work.

One of the biggest keys that you're going to take away in this posture is that

requiring the hips to stay vertically stacked over the knees just isn't necessary.

It's actually a pretty arbitrary technique.

It's good, it works really well when it works well.

But for people that have various motion restrictions, we really allow, we need to allow

the pelvis to move more freely in the posture.

So if you haven't watched this already, I have it in video form on our channel,

Jason Crandall Yoga on YouTube.

I would love for you to listen here because I think that you're already here and you will if you already

understand a bit of the pose I think that you're going to be able to listen along and

really take a lot away but I'd also love to have you watch the episode. I've been

working a ton on making these episodes just a little bit more aesthetically and

visually stylized and produced and so it's been an exciting journey for me.
