Yoga
for older people
If you are an older person or recovering
from surgery or some injury, this article is for you. Jane Adams has been
practicing things like yoga and Tai chi and strength building and other forms
of exercise as an instructor since the 1970s, and she really knows her stuff.
If you would like to improve your ability to get around and your endurance and flexibility,
and strength, and you have a very low starting point, such as being very
elderly or injured, then this video is for you. It is chair yoga with Jane
Adams, and it can get you up and going like you haven't been going in years.
I've used this myself because I had a pulmonary embolism a while back, and it
got me very weak, or rather the after-effects of it did. This video has three
levels. At the beginner level, everything is done in a chair that would be
level 1, and it gets more advanced all the way up to Level 3, and by the way,
in my opinion, chair yoga will give you all the benefits of regular yoga it's
just something that you can do that would be easier. I have included a picture
of it if you want to buy it on Amazon or elsewhere, it is sold. Don't forget to
talk with your doctor before you start any exercise program. Try level 1 the
easiest level and see if your blood pressure doesn't go down significantly within
1/2 an hour after doing the exercise.
Many
blessings to you this day
