Whether you are working toward the splits or just trying to release tight hips from long hours at a desk, props allow you to hold the pose longer without straining, so you can actually feel the muscles release and the breath deepen. When we talk about deep stretching at Svādhyāya, we are really talking about creating space. If you sit at a desk all day, your hip flexors shorten and your lower back carries the weight. In class, we use a mix of Hatha and Vinyasa sequences designed to target these stubborn areas. We often practice poses like Prasarita Padottanasana (Wide-Legged Forward Bend) or work towards Hanumanasana (the splits) with the support of blocks and the wall. You will notice that my focus is not on forcing the body into a shape. Instead, we pay attention to the resistance—that moment when your body tells you to stop—and we breathe into it. This is why I keep my group batches small, with only 8 to 15 students. It allows me to provide hands-on alignment corrections. If your knees are rolling in or your spine is rounding in a way that creates tension, I am there to adjust you. We want to find a balance between effort and surrender. Beyond the physical, this is about the nervous system. By holding deep stretches and finishing with a sound bath or Savasana, we switch the body from 'fight or flight' into 'rest and digest'. You might come in feeling stiff or 'locked up', but you will leave with a greater range of motion and, more importantly, a quieter mind. Remember, the progress is in the consistency, not the intensity. ## About Svādhyāya by Devyani I'm Devyani. I built Svādhyāya as a homecoming for anyone who needs to slow down.
