Practicing with a teacher is priceless—absolutely! But know that you can take steps to own your own "practice." It's unique to every one. Pay attention to the things in the "yoga toolbox"! Small warming, purifying actions. Then bigger movements to move the spine in various ways. Standing movements help really move energy throughout the body. Finish rebalancing with rest, breathing and/or meditation.
