No Pain, Lots To Gain

“Support the body well and the letting go just happens” is one of my daily mantras,” says Loulou James, physiotherapist, yoga teacher, and designer of the Buttafly.

“The old adage of “no pain, no gain” belongs in the dark ages in my book! In working with others and in my own practice, my experience is that the better we support the body, the more the tissues can relax and release unnecessary holding and tension. The beauty here is that less is more.

Excitingly, the mental shift away from needing to strive to achieve is mirrored in the body which in turn becomes reflected in the mind. This is yoga in action.”
