About the Iyengar Yoga

The Iyengar yoga sessions are specially adapted for those with ME/CFS. These sessions use therapeutic methods to give people the chance to be in classical yoga poses. The poses (optional) are fully supported with the use of props such as blankets and bolsters so the participant can passively enjoy the pose. The sessions start and conclude with guided relaxation, deepening the capacity to breathe. Participants are encouraged to keep within their own limits. Much of the time is spent lying down, but there is some sitting.
