Soothing And Healing

I have a few DVDs now by this instructor and enjoy them all. Like the others, this one is broken down into 4 main sections covering the general subject (Beginning and Ending Your Day, Neck, Shoulder and Back Issues, Breathing Exercises to Calm the Mind and Stomach and Digestion Issues), with a good selection of routines and poses in each section. Has helped me with aches and pains in the areas.

Helpful maybe, but don't use this DVD as your primary yoga practice

This DVD is quite different from others that I own, I'm not sure that I'd really call it yoga? More like stretching. I haven't tried the morning or evening practices, just the ones for specific ailments. I can see how this might be helpful...it helped my tension headache temporarily. But it seems like this DVD may have been made for older adults or for those simply looking to use yoga to help with certain issues. Not for people who are looking for a regular yoga practice. I will still probably pull this out when I have a specific issue, but won't use it otherwise. It's pretty slow. She pretty much just holds poses for lengthy amounts of time, and a lot of these aren't your typical yoga poses. This felt more like stretching and conscious relaxation than yoga. But the scenery is beautiful, the ocean is relaxing, and overall I think this is a well made DVD.

yoga

This DVD is somewhat disappointing: a long and rambling interview with the Dalai Lama, and a series of yoga postures that may be helpful to some, but were not so to me. My wife was reluctant to go through the program even a second time, as she was not really taken with the postures.

Excellent!

This dvd has been very helpful in relieving tension in the muscles. Your whole body is stretched and you do feel beneficial relief. The setting for these exercises is very beautiful and calming. The yoga Master is excellent.

Helpful

This is an excellent DVD, it has really helped me with anxiety relief and insomnia. The instructor talks you through the poses and she lets you breath at your own pace instead of making you feel like you have to do a certain style of yoga breathing. This is a good DVD to use before bedtime.
