About the information on this website

The articles, photographs, educational materials and practice information published on susanna.yoga are provided for general education and information.

The Krama Library™ explores yoga philosophy, asana, breath, meditation, rest and the experience of practice.

These materials are intended to support understanding and personal exploration. They are not a substitute for individual instruction, medical assessment or professional healthcare advice.

Practising safely

Yoga is a personal practice, and each person's physical abilities, experience and circumstances are different.

Physical postures, stretching, balance exercises, breathing techniques and relaxation practices may involve risks, particularly when undertaken without direct supervision.

If you choose to explore a practice described on this website:

  • Work within a comfortable and appropriate range of movement.

  • Avoid forcing a posture, holding the breath or continuing through pain.

  • Use appropriate support or modifications where needed.

  • Stop if you experience pain, dizziness, unusual breathlessness, numbness or other concerning symptoms.

  • Seek guidance from a suitably qualified professional when uncertain whether a practice is appropriate for you.

A posture or technique described on this website may not be suitable for everyone.

Health considerations

If you are pregnant, recovering from injury or surgery, living with a medical condition, or have concerns about your physical or mental health, seek advice from an appropriate healthcare professional before beginning or changing your practice.

Some yoga postures and breathing techniques may require particular care or may be unsuitable in certain circumstances.

The absence of a specific warning in an article should not be taken to mean that a posture or practice is suitable for everyone.

Breathwork, meditation and rest

Breathing practices should be approached progressively and without strain.

Do not force the breath, practise prolonged breath retention or attempt advanced breathing techniques without appropriate preparation and guidance.

Meditation, Yoga Nidra and relaxation practices can sometimes bring uncomfortable thoughts, emotions or sensations into awareness.

If a practice becomes distressing, you may stop, open your eyes, orient yourself to your surroundings or return your attention to the feeling of the ground beneath you.

Seek appropriate professional support if significant emotional distress arises or persists.

Individual instruction

Written descriptions and photographs cannot provide the individual observation, correction and adaptation available through direct teaching.

The information in The Krama Library does not establish an individual teacher-student relationship or provide personalised assessment.

Readers should consider their own experience, circumstances and need for professional guidance before attempting any described practice.

Medical information

Living Wholeness Yoga does not provide medical diagnosis, treatment or psychological therapy through this website.

Information concerning anatomy, wellbeing, yoga philosophy or traditional practices is provided for educational purposes and should not replace advice from an appropriately qualified healthcare professional.

Responsibility and legal rights

Readers are encouraged to make informed decisions about their participation in yoga and related practices, taking account of their individual circumstances and any professional advice they have received.

Nothing in this disclaimer excludes or restricts any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or restricted, including liability for death or personal injury resulting from negligence, or affects your statutory rights.
