Hidradenitis Suppurativa can take its toll on our bodies in many ways. We already deal with the usual pains and discomfort of the wounds and lesions. But HS can also cause us to walk differently. Sometimes we sit differently and our posture can be affected. Practicing daily yoga can help
HidraWear has teamed up with the most wonderful instructor Ana Maria Conneely. Ana is a movement and wellbeing expert and speaker. She has been teaching since 2013 and she is also a massage therapist, nutritional advisor and host of The A Way to Live Well podcast.
The great thing about yoga is that anyone can do it. You don’t have to be a yogi to feel the benefits. People of any age can take part, young and old, overweight or slim, it doesn’t discriminate. Practicing your new moves, even just a few minutes every day can give you the power to calm your mind, and strengthen your body.
