The Power of Props

Props aren’t crutches—they’re assistants. And guess what? Everyone needs an assistant sometimes. In this episode, I dive into the power of props and how they help us refine, support, and evolve our yoga practice.

Using a block, a strap, or a bolster isn’t about taking the easy way out—it’s about making space for what works now. As our bodies change, so does our practice, and that can be tough to accept. But yoga teaches us aparigraha, the art of letting go—not as defeat, but as an act of wisdom.

We’re exploring:
✨ Why props aren’t just for beginners—they’re for EVERY body
✨ How aparigraha (non-attachment) helps us shift our mindset around our evolving practice
✨ Practical ways to integrate props without resistance or ego getting in the way
✨ The essential props—blocks, straps, blankets, bolsters, and the wall—and why they belong in every practice
✨ What to say and teach to help students embrace props as tools for a sustainable, intelligent, and safe practice

Join me as I stress the importance of learning how to use props in your own practice so you can impart their power when you your students.                                      

Our yoga is a lifelong conversation between ourselves and our bodies.
