    I frequently get up very early due to discomfort . . . . once I start moving around, it subsides somewhat.

    I've suffered from neck pain because of posture for years. Doing the Gokhale class and then going back to yoga has made all the difference! I couldn't have done it without Doreen's Gokhale class. On occasion, I feel a bit of irritation creeping in; that's my sign to readjust using Gokhale method, and it works. Pain goes away, and I'm happy again.

    I had a lot of crunching and sifting noises in my neck when turning my head in my 30s and was really concerned what my neck would sound like and feel like 10, 15 20 years down the line. Stretching, massage, chiropractor, didn't help. It wasn't until I took the Gokhale Method and learned where my head belonged (where it's home was) and how to elongate the back of my neck that the noise went away. Once I was able to learn where my head and neck belonged the noises went away and never came back! I am so thrilled. I'm not doing further damage to my neck and it is quiet!
