This book presents Easy Does It Yoga, a modified program of exercises, breathing, meditation, philosophy and nutrition for older people. It is a thorough yet less physically challenging introduction to the benefits of Yoga. Anyone can do the simple exercises sitting in a chair. More challenging standing and floor exercises are also taught. Easy Does It Yoga is a safe, enjoyable and effective way to improve flexibility, strength, energy, self esteem and well being. And it helps reduce the stiffness, pain, irritability, insomnia and depression that can come with aging. This program can help seniors maintain their independence and lead a full life.
