I’m telling you, yoga before open heart surgery

Hey so I don't care if your surgery is in a month, two months, two weeks--my advice is to try that link to the practice I recommended the other day. I had no idea how hunched I really am--of course if you had an ACTA2 genetic defect like I have, my advice would be very very slowly and deliberately as you could possibly overstretch your arteries and snap them (this is also why you SHOULD NOT get chiropractic adjustments with any connective tissue disorder making you prone to tears). I have seen heart surgeons talking about seeing people get adjusted on chiropractic tables and cringe with the force and direction used. I'm feeling a little better every day doing the yoga. Yes, there are days I clearly try to talk myself out of it because it's a commitment and we all know how adjusted I have gotten to life over the past few years with little discipline beyond self-health discipline.

No, really--one thing that we all do after major surgery is start hunching over to protect our chests and this kind of foundation will set you up better to resist that, not to mention the general health benefits of yoga in your life.

I haven't had a perfect diet since I got notified of this and decided to intentionally design my time pre-surgery. Yesterday I ended up in CVS buying their 3 for $3 boxed candy deal and ate the shit out of the Hot Tamales. I just ate 7 more because I love candy. The Charleston Chew is suffering from a theft problem where people slice the box and apparently steal half the contents while they ...
