Core Module NameHuman Body: Ease and Dis-ease

Plan Information

Selected key teaching (specific core concept):

Yoga has benefits for people with RA. Specifically, JAPA/JFS/pawanmuktasana practice can improve and preserve joint mobility when practiced regularly.
This article/study: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4490021/ states that “Yoga may be well-suited for arthritis by combining physical activity with potent stress management techniques"

Goal for implementation with client (Specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, time-bound relating to the client):

Client’s goal is more comfortable, easeful movement, especially in her back.
Practice JAPA (from pawanmuktasana I for arthritis) in chair and lying down.
We'll practice movements at each joint coordinated with breath + centering and savasana.
Progress will be noted by observation and client reporting of changes/improvement in movement challenges.

Relevant Client(s) Details

60yoF with RA. Has been experiencing stiffness, partly due to inactivity. This is especially bothersome in the spine (which is showing kyphosis) and when attempting getting up and down from the floor. She wants to start “doing yoga” to make movement more easeful.
