yoga with jeff
Based in household yoga practices of more than 40 years, Jeff’s yoga work will include group sessions, and additional content not focused exclusively on posture. That additional content will include 9 Minutes or LESS, and will include THE PRANA PROJECT. Jeff will share therapeutic, maintenance, and training that alternate between the Playful (Lila) and the Heroic (Vira). Look for an occasional Book Review, Interview, Creative Adventure, or Personal Note in realms practical and imaginative.

Images for the Upper Body Lines of Strength
These images ore from Thomas Myers’ Anatomy Trains.
Kumar taught me these channels via postures without pictures and without a formal description. He taught me by the pose. When I discovered Thomas Myers’ body maps of these lines in 2003 (?), it was a beautiful confirmation of what Kumar had been teaching me in his sage-like and direct way.

II. 9. Weight-bearing Floor Work for Wrists, etc. continued
Although many more practices advance from these initial nine positions, today’s sequence can keep you bus until you can repeat each move in three sets of nine repetitions. Try these and let me know what you feel. Include any observations.

No. 5 in the nine video sequence to unlock Upper Torso
Can you breathe from the spine to the full extension of your fingertips?
Do the practice. Do it twice or three times or more until you feel it. Move on to the next video.
I'm loading a fundamental, easy, and progressive yoga series, each video about one minute. Did I say "easy"?
The purpose is not acrobatic virtuosity. Acro must be for another day. These videos aim to restore awareness in channels of strength from your diaphragm through your neck and shoulders out to your fingertips. These videos assume you can stand up with balance and that you can actually move about your day.
If you are having mysterious wrist problems, trouble with your elbows, tweaks of the neck and shoulder then this series is for you. Be sure you comment.
Starting Saturday, 10/4/25. Check it out.
