I really enjoyed this book. It's very sweet and refreshing to read. My grandson age 5 loved hearing this story and he did the poses right along with Hallie. Carole has written a delightful, charming book. Will make you smile.

This gave me the encouragement I needed to start using yoga to help with my anxiety. Didn't realize I was already doing some of the exercises mentioned

I really like how cozy yoga and fitness seems around the BalanceFrom GoYoga All-Function. Regardless if I am just undertaking light yoga exercise like a vin class, meaning Im on my own seating or legs a good deal, I sense secure and supported. =

I want to do yoga but hate to do any exercises on the floor, and many yoga poses are done down on the floor.  This is the perfect solution for me.  It is easy to follow, and the voice instructions don't irritate me like some exercise videos do.  I have a friend who is physically disabled, and she is also enjoying the chair yoga.

I was given a yoga beginners kit for my birthday, the kit was a perfect gift. But I found the video instructor to be just too fast for me. The down ward dog, and some other moves were too much for this beginner  I was not as limber as i thought I was. I did get a little frustrated  Then I found Gentle Yoga with Jane Adams oh my I love yoga now. Jane goes over the moves so you know what to do , and I can do them. I look forward every day to doing my yoga.  I recommend this video to any one wanting to learn yoga or just need a more gentle work out. Now I'm more limber and I feel better  thank you Jane Adams.

I am at an intermediate yoga level. I really enjoy doing my yoga practice wiht Donna Helm-Yost. Her pace is perfect. Some of the yoga videos are to fast pace for me, I feel like I am always trying to catch up. Donna not only takes her time but she lets you stay in some of the positions so that you can feel the pose and make any adjustments that you need to make.

It is like being in my favorite yoga class. I would definitely recomend this video.

I thought that I'd give yoga a try, as I'm always up for something new and had grown tired of my usual cardio workout. I also needed something to help relieve my stress.

This is a good book for beginners. I suppose if I were more flexible to start with, I'd have a better experience with the poses. It get's a little frustrating when I can't hit the poses as well as they are detailed, but that's on me and in no way a reflection on the author or this book. I suppose that, if I continue with this book, I'll become more flexible in time.

I received this item at a discount, but my review is totally based on my own experience.

I have really enjoyed this DVD.  I am a bit overweight and wanted to do something.  Yoga is good for that.  Not too hard and there is 8 different things on the beginners level to work through.  The instructor is encouraging also...

There needs to be  an intro ro Yoga for Wellness.  This is a case of too much information for someone just getting started

I love this DVD and it seems like something that I could easily do 3 times a week and stick with. No, it is not a high impact or cardio workout, but it is not meant to be. The thing with yoga is that you can improve even the simplest pose each time you do it. This is great for beginners but also a very nice stretching workout for more advanced people.
Also, being over fifty, moving everyday is so important. I find that when I do this I don't feel as achey. The music, scenery, and the instructor are all really fabulous and work well together. Very happy with this purchase. I've bought other Dvds that were very challenging...did them a few times and then stopped. I feel like this is something very healthy and easy to do everyday. I also like the meditation at the end with affirmations for losing weight. Great job!

I am disabled but not quite to the degree of some of the participants and the instructor on this video.  I gave me the opportunity to once again practice yoga in a way I could manage.

So far (3 weeks in) I'm loving this routine. I went into it with NO yoga background and it is challenging without being discouraging and I'm already seeing a marked improvement in my flexibility. Worth it in my opinion.

There are now two schools of thought re: "doing" yoga.  There is the tried and true historical version(s) and the "let's re-write history version of exercise for the 21st century - go for the burn."  I started doing yoga in the 70's with Lilias on PBS.  Took many yoga classes from some excellent instructors and still have a very thin volume (book) of Lilias' by which I taught myself many of the yoga poses.  Believe it or not, yoga does not start with Downward Facing Dog which is the catch pose of the 20-to-30-something person.  Last winter I started taking Yoga through a Fitness Center and when we were done, I walked up to the instructor and told her that I didn't remember yoga being so "fast".  She told me that yoga should bring up your heart rate.  Maybe, but yoga is not a cardio-vascular "exercise" like aerobic walking, boot camp, or spinning,etc.  The movements are meant to be slow for a reason. Yoga is a process of patience, not an immediate NOW gratification.

Lilias may be slow, but yoga is a combination of mind and body, not let's get that heart pumping as a measure of accomplishing the poses. I would strongly recommend her tapes and dvds for beginners, so YOU DON'T HURT YOURSELF.  YOGA is not meant to "hurt" or "burn", ever.  A good foundation creates the concentration, strength and stamina to turn your body into a pretzel and to BREATHE correctly. With a little perserverance at any age, the rewards are remarkable. And, if you progress quickly to the next tapes/dvds - great, Lilias has done her job, and she knows it.  If you want the "burn" and pretty immediate results do Pilates.  Yoga is a lifetime achievement.

As a yogi, I have many meditation books as well as books on yoga and this is one of my favorites!

This really helped me learn more about yoga in general and also find a practice.  I feel I know far more about yoga now than I did before and am on my way to practice the best yoga for me.

I love Yoga and was happy to see this.  Every time I use it my back gets better and better.
