The American Yoga Association's Easy Does It Yoga

Unlike classic beginner guides, AMERICAN YOGA ASSOCIATION'S EASY DOES IT YOGA is for people of all ages who can't stretch their joints or maintain a high level of exertion but still want to enjoy the many healthful benefits of yoga. Alice Christensen, who developed Easy Does It Yoga, a nationally recognized program for older adults, gives special attention to various physical limitations as she guides readers through the basics of yoga exercising, breathing, and meditation. Although it is modified to suit special needs, the program is just as effective as more strenuous ones for building flexibility and strength, enhancing concentration and emotional stability, increasing energy, relieving stress, and developing the ability to relax at will.
