This is a quick and dirty video for those who are newbies to yoga... when you take one pose at a time and remove the transitions it becomes so much more doable. And... the science is in: the value in doing these daily even for a few minutes is high. Keep it simple, at a time when you enjoy it. Start with one or two. Done is better than perfect.
I just found you I’m not judgmental I just do what you say to do I don’t care about what’s in the background or foreground I’m 65 in great shape but currently have a fractured radius so I’m limited “FOR NOW “
As a 65 yr old beginner - can I ‘almost ‘ get there. You have me motivated! Can I just get close ? Happy to have found you- I have osteoporosis- these are all safe? I need arm work too!
You can do it! The most important thing is if you feel good doing it. One big guiding part of yoga is it's non-judgmental and it's about you..and no one else!
@@Flipping50TV thank you. The first time through was a shocking wake up call to how much flexibility I have lost. I’m a 24/7 caregiver so less time for me. Thanks for this program- I have this to focus on
Wonderful video, thank you D! 61. Not a yoga lover. But I do force myself to go occasionally and always opt for hot studios (I’m vata and we ❤ heat!) I always emerge euphoric?! Sometimes I just like to lay there enjoying a warm rest. Instructors always ask whether I’m having trouble😁
Rotated triangle, seated chest opening twist, seated rotation are all poses someone with osteoporosis should be very careful in doing, and most likely avoiding instead. I have osteoporosis and I avoid these at all costs. Can you tell me why you are recommending these to people who maybe don't know the poses or exercises to avoid, having osteoporosis? Thanks.
That was an old way of thinking-true. “Contraindicated” exercises were the best we knew and science had in the 90s. Science has changed. How you do something is far more important. You might want to look into Loren Fishmans 12 yoga pose study for a starting point. Most recently we’ve. Found post menopausal women shouldn’t be taught to fear exercise they’ve been doing . They response well to high intensity and high impact exercise since studies published starting around 2015.
Thanks for this great video Debra! Wondering if these yoga exercises should be done a specific time of day i.e morning or night to best help with cortisol reduction?
Such a great question. Light exercise can be done ANYTIME. It's compatible with hormone balance all the time. Many practitioners will say an empty stomach is best but if you're using one or two poses, not doing a flowing practice, there's no need to be "empty"
It's shocking right? But yoga is also proven to increase bone density by 1% a year (resulting in a potential 4% difference when you consider losses can range from 1-3%). The longitudinal study by Dr Loren Fishman over 10 years showed it wasn't just one year... but over each year the gains were made. Significant breakthrough that yoga IS absolutely a smart part of your bone density exercise plan. You can do that daily, unlike heavy weight training (also a part of the trilogy) which requires recovery and can be done 2-3 times at most. Then there's weight bearing- ideally with ground force - as high as you can- meaning drop jumps or squat jumps - and for those unable or limited to doing only some of those... using the others to their advantage becomes key.

Thank you, I did it and loved it!
I just found you
I’m not judgmental
I just do what you say to do
I don’t care about what’s in the background or foreground

we love non-judgmental!
So happy to see this video! Do you have any videos on beginning jump training/plyometrics for those of us with lower bone density?
Yes - see this one in particular: ruclips.net/video/Q4cDTMHWP6Y/видео.html and get the weight training in 2x a week!!!
I have been practicing yoga for many years now. It has changed my life for the better.
Congrats! It's a game-changer for many!

Hurray! No weight on my wrists! That's my kind of Yoga!
