FAQs

General

1. Do I need yoga experience?

No. These classes are suitable for all levels, from complete beginners to advanced practitioners. Every practice is guided clearly, so you can move safely and confidently at your own pace.

2. Do I need to be flexible?

Not at all. Yoga helps you build flexibility gradually. The focus here is on breath, posture, and relaxation — flexibility develops naturally over time.

3. Is this only for people with asthma?

No. While Joel’s Holistics was inspired by Joel’s own experience with asthma, the classes support anyone who wants to improve breathing, learn Kundalini/Kriya yoga, reduce stress, and enhance overall wellbeing.

4. What if I get short of breath during practice?

That’s completely fine. You’re encouraged to pause, slow down, or adapt the practice whenever needed. Each class is designed to give you space to listen to your body.

Practice & Equipment

9. Do I need expensive equipment?

No. All you need is a non-slip yoga mat. Props like blocks or bolsters can help, but you can easily substitute them with cushions or folded blankets.

Sessions range from 20-60 minutes — from quick breathing resets to full yoga and relaxation practices. You can choose what fits your time and energy levels.

11. What if I have medical conditions other than asthma?

Always consult your healthcare provider before starting. Joel can help you adapt practices safely to your needs, whether you have respiratory issues, joint pain, or anxiety.

Asthma & Breath work

12. Can yoga and breath work really help with asthma?

Yes. Research supports that gentle yoga and mindful breathing can improve lung capacity, reduce asthma symptoms, and lower stress levels — all key for respiratory health.

13. Are the breathing exercises safe?

Yes. Every breath work session is carefully controlled and designed for people with respiratory sensitivities. You’re guided to never force or strain your breath.

Reiki & Energy Healing

14. What is Reiki?

Reiki is a gentle energy-healing practice that promotes relaxation, balance, and emotional release. It can help reduce stress, calm the mind, and support healing.

15. How does distance Reiki work?
