Yoga: Don’t bend until you break

Posted: March 15, 2012 at 9:08 pm


Pam Schulte, owner of Just Practice Yoga, acknowledges that she and her students have suffered the occasional injury from yoga.

"Well duh," she said. "Have you seen what people do in those classes? This idea that yoga is this holier-than-thou regimen where no one should ever get injured is not realistic. It's not realistic to think that way about anything."

Yoga has been practiced for thousands of years in India and has exploded in the U.S. in the past two decades. According to a survey by the National Institutes for Health, more than 13 million American adults did some form of the discipline in 2006, a number that has likely increased.

But researchers only began taking a hard look at the discipline in the past decade. What they're finding is that while pretty much everyone could benefit from yoga, it's not the one-stop, cure-all regimen that many yogis say it is. And it can cause injuries, some quite serious.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission reported 5,500 yoga-related injuries in 2007. A chapter in William J. Broad's book "The Science of Yoga: The Risks and the Rewards" focuses on injuries sustained by veteran yogis, many serious enough to cause permanent damage and even paralysis.

Dr. Michael J. Milne, a surgeon with the Orthopedic Center of St. Louis and a team physician with the St. Louis Cardinals, is one of a number of local doctors who have seen patients who were injured on a yoga mat.

Most are nonsurgical injuries and include sprains and strains, Milne said. But he's also seen patients who have ruptured their Achilles tendons or torn the meniscus in their knees while doing the downward dog yoga position.

"A lot of times it's people who are new to yoga who have no flexibility and try to keep up with others in their class," he said.

He's also seen patients with torn rotator cuffs in the shoulder, who did not feel a sudden tear. They will often say that they started yoga a few months before their shoulder started hurting, Milne said.

Italian family brings wonderous circus 'community' to Beirut

Posted: at 3:14 pm


BEIRUT: For the Togni family, the circus is more than a career, it is a way of life.

Their genetically transmitted adventurous spirit has brought them for the first time to Beirut, with the collaboration of the Italian Culture Ministry and the Lebanese Tourism Ministry, to present the National Italian Circus Il Florilegio.

The term Florilegio is Italian for bouquet, meaning a collection of the best numbers according to general assistant Isabelle Gillier.

Livio Togni has been in the circus business his whole life, as his father, grand father and those before them were.

The roots of this circus can be traced back 130 years he proudly stated. This circus is our life, we have created a closely knitted community that is now our home, and as we travel we live collective strong experiences that bring us even more together.

Il Florilegio was crowned the National Italian Circus in 1938 by decree of King Victor Emmanuel III who was famous for his love of entertainment.

As for today, Livios sons Steve and Max have taken over the torch, the first being the star of the show and the second being the director. Steve graduated high school in Italy and went on to study accounting until he was 19 years old, while still touring with his family during vacations. He also started coaching tennis at a young age, but no matter what he did with his life, he could not tame his urge to follow in his ancestors footsteps and surrender to the magic of the circus life.

My brother and I are the sixth generation to take over the circus, how could I not carry on this dynasty? he asked.

I especially love the contact I have with the animals. Contrary to what many people think, they are not my slaves, they are my partners and friends, we share a strong bond Steve said as we were touring the animal area in the back of the marquee.

And as we approached the tigers cage where three beautiful creatures were lying peacefully, Steve lifted his hand to the thick steel bars. The male tiger, biggest in size, quickly approached to greet him as he gracefully stood up on his two back feet and placed his front paws on the cage as if to hug his friend and trainer.

P90X 6 Month Man Woman (Couple) Finale Results – Video

Posted: at 3:13 pm



13-03-2012 09:43 For health & hair articles check: http://www.4usnaturals.com Like Us on Facebook facebook.com Follow us on Twitter: twitter.com Here are our results after 6 months of exercise. I am still on the fight against cellulite. I don't know how much I weighed originally because my old scale said I weighed about 120 and it was VERY wrong. Scales elsewhere said I weighed from 126-128. When I got my new scale (after doing P90X for a while) it said I was 126 so I assume I was more than that. I didn't measure myself because I don't know how and the measurements don't make any sense. I just know that I look better all around and hope to look even better in the future. I want to do the Brazil Butt Lift next.
