Product Description

Now, You Can Experience The Many Amazing Benefits Of Yoga!

With these highly effective techniques you will discover how you can..

- Reduce Stress, Anxiety and Depression.

Deadlines, financial worries, relationship issues, traffic, the holidays, getting your kids to school on time: it s all stress. Stress is stored in our musculature and other body tissues (i.e. irritable bowel) and disrupts our hormonal balance. By reducing muscle tension you can reduce your stress levels, stimulate hormone production and feel like a new person.

- Lose Weight Permanently.

Yoga can help you lose weight in more ways than just by burning calories. It helps your hormonal balance, reduces food and alcohol cravings, and builds muscle.

- Increase Your Mobility in Shoulders, Hips and Other Joints.

Your range of motion tends to decrease, as you get older. It s: use it or lose it. Yoga takes all your joints through their full range of motion, increasing your mobility over time. You ll be amazed at how much easier everyday activities like walking or running can become when you increase the range of motion in your joints.

- Increase Your Energy level.

You have to expend energy to gain more energy. But some types of exercise can get you feeling more energized immediately and this is one of them!

- Strengthen , Lengthen and Tone Your Muscles.

Yoga creates long, strong and lean muscles, from head to toe. Enjoy powerful muscles without adding bulk!

Down Dog
Step Through

5 out of 5 stars Ideal for people new to yoga   January 5, 2009
Tammie Snyder
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I have been suffering with lower back pain for quite a while primarily due to my job. I sit at a desk, hunched over staring close at my computer screen, naturally this has taken a toll on my posture as well.

Someone recommended trying yoga to help alleviate some of these problems. I researched a few of the available titles and stumbled across this DVD.

Like anyone else that has had problems with pain or inflexibility for a while, I was a little skeptical. But I honestly have to say that I do feel better physically which has in turn helped my general mood during the workday. I was told that positive side-effects of yoga are an improved physical and mental state, I would have to agree at this point.

I was pleased that the poses and techniques were geared for people like me who have never tried anything like this ever before. I really liked how this video features a section where each pose they cover is clearly demonstrated step-by-step.

The pose breakdown section in this DVD was extremely helpful because a friend told me her experience with some videos were that they start right out of the gate throwing poses and terms at you "downward dog, warrior etc, etc". To someone who has never attempted yoga in their life, this can be a frustrating way to start.

The video had multiple workout lengths that you can choose from depending on how much time you had to devote on any particular day. It also had a nice section showing me techniques I can use while I am in the office.

I am now a believer in the positive effects of yoga. If you are brand new to yoga and looking for a great way to start, I would recommend this DVD.
