628. Wednesday Q&A: Wrist Strength, Heart-Opening, & Proprioception

  • February 8, 2023
  Welcome to Wednesday Q&A, where you ask questions and we answer them!   In this Wednesday Q&A, we answer your questions about how to develop wrist strength, heart-opening yoga poses, and improving proprioception.   Your questions:
  • I was gifted a set of Wrist Buddy yoga blocks. I do have some discomfort in my wrists occasionally, in crow or handstand, but I’m unsure if these are a good or safe solution. Do you recommend them or what do you suggest to strengthen wrists and take some of the pressure off during hand-balanced poses?
  • What does it mean if a pose is heart-opening and what are the benefits?
  • What helps to improve proprioception?
