As a smallish counterpoint. I had chronic lower back pain for much of my 20s that increased until 29. I tried yoga around 27 and got pretty into it. I’m a flexible person so the back bends weren’t a problem, but after a few months I started to get a new thing: shooting, sharp pain that felt like a pinched nerve. It was definitely from the back bends, and once I stopped yoga it stopped. Over the last two years I’ve “beaten” the back pain. I only ever get it on the rare occasions I pull super heavy work days and don’t stay mindful. There was no magic bullet for me. You have to keep moving positions. I never work for more than 35 or so in the same position. Lean forward, mid, back, then take a break. Even lounging at intervals. Posture work is just a lot of small things and improvements at margin.
