I attended a workshop with Sherry Brourman (http://sherrybrourman.com/) who specialises in yoga as therapy for different ailments and injuries and uses slight adjustments and props to train your body to think differently in the way you stand, breath, sit and utilmately do yoga. She also has a Physical Therapy background.
The first thing she said to me was that I had to come to terms with my curve first. It's been a long battle do to this but the more I actually do for my health with the intention of maintaining my curve rather than becoming absolutely straight, the more my overall health and wellness is improving and I'm feeling better about my body.
In the 2 hour workshop she focused on breathing and how with every inhalation and every exhalation you can 'turn on' your core and work your abs to support your spine and my hip/leg length differentiation: and how one subtle change and focus off my right leg can give me equal weight on both my hips rather than put the majority of weight on my right leg.
