In this cluster, I focus on the dorsal spine and chest openers. When you use props like ropes to dig into the dorsal area, you are not just adjusting posture; you are physically forcing open the emotional channels that stay constricted due to daily stress. It is precise, it is uncomfortable, and it is exactly what your system needs to stop leaking energy. Most people ignore the physical markers of their emotional state. A tight chest is not just bad posture; it is a defensive mechanism against a world that demands you to be constantly available. When I teach these sequences, I am looking for the physical resistance that mimics your life's internal friction. We work with the Anahata Chakra (heart center) and pelvic alignment because that is where we hold the most trauma. Using chairs, belts, and wall ropes is not a luxury; it is a clinical necessity. These tools allow us to isolate the muscle groups that have been holding onto tension for years. If you come to Yogakshema in Mandi House, do not expect a class where you simply move through poses. You will be held in a position, often with props, until the muscle releases the memory of the stress. You may feel frustrated or overwhelmed, and that is part of the process. My students often come in carrying the weight of their family, their jobs, and their unspoken grief. Through consistent, disciplined alignment, we move that stagnation out. Whether you join us online or visit the studio in Delhi, the goal remains the same: you should leave feeling lighter because you have physically offloaded the emotional burden you were carrying. ## About Nivedita Joshi I am Nivedita Joshi.
