Seniors face a number of age-related issues, such as chronic pain, hypertension, heart disease, osteoporosis, arthritis, and anxiety and depression. And while some people may consider yoga a young person's practice, there is a growing body of evidence that suggests yoga can be beneficial for a wide variety of age-related ailments. Relax into Yoga for Seniors--based on the innovative Yoga for Seniors program, and including new material for fans of the Relax Into Yoga for Seniors DVD--provides a step-by-step guide that combines the best of modern, evidence-based medicine with the ancient wisdom, experience, and tradition of yogic teachings. With this book, you'll explore what yoga is and how to do it safely, including important movement considerations like how to get up and down from the floor with care, and how to stand and sit with healthy postural alignment. With this popular program, you'll be able to create a safe and effective individualized practice that will address your needs, take personal limitations into consideration, and help you relieve pain, become more flexible and active, and connect more deeply with your inner experience.--$cSource other than Library of Congress. 606 $aHatha yoga$vPopular works 606 $aYoga 606 $aHealing 615 0$aHatha yoga 615 0$aYoga. 615 0$aHealing. 676 $a613.7046 700 $aCarson$b Kimberly$01244317 702 $aKrucoff$b Carol 702 $aKrucoff$b Mitchell W. 702 $aCarson$b James S. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910136562703321 996 $aRelax into Yoga for Seniors$92886597 997 $aUNINA
