A New Kind of Yoga: easy, relaxing, and fun. Good for people who have trouble
getting up and down several times in a class:
*seniors
*people with hip, knee, and back problems
*sports injuries
*arthritis
*fibromyalgia.
Twelve relaxing positions, done on a bed.
Each one releases a different stress reflex: so your body becomes integrated, whole, and balanced.
When you
get up out of bed, and stand in gravity, everything works better: your nerves, your circulation, your mental state, AND--if
you want to get out and exercise--you CAN because you have energized and rejuvenated your core.
The focus is
on restoring natural breathing patterns in harmony with your level of activity.
You use your
breath to shift gears. Having a good breathing rhythm is like having the clutch working in your car, your body knows to use
low gear to get you up the hills, and high gear to relax and cruise down the highway of life. The brakes work, and your signals
all light up when they need to, and not when it's inappropriate.
It helps to
balance emotions and clear your thinking. It's great for relationships, as you can always respond to your boss, your mate,
or your kids in a more intelligent, compassionate way than if you are pushing too hard.
It is a truly mind-body experience: a yoga for the body, the brain, the breath,
and feeling your power, timing, and coordination.
