Hamstring tendonitis has become an epidemic in Yogis, especially those who practice Vinyasa Flow. In the event that the hamstrings develop micro or macro tears at their attachments (tendons) these injuries can be frustratingly slow to heal as tendons recieve much less blood supply then our muscles. Compounding this slow healing is that often Yogis continue to stretch the hamstrings in an effort to heal them.

The breath and the mind are intimately connected, if your looking to steady the mind, start by steadying your breath.

The powerful results from Positional Release are achieved through gentle body positions designed to place affected areas into a position of slack; the opposite of a stretch. Imagine for a moment you have a rope with a knot in it. If you want to release this knot you must first put slack on the rope; it would be impossible to release the knot if the two ends of the rope were stretching away from one another.
