Product Description Yoga has been shown to promote flexibility, deep relaxation, strength, balance, coordination, and a general sense of well being. But for many busy people, joining a yoga class may be an unrealistic goal. Illustrated with lively color photographs, YOGA IN BED-a concept developed by an overworked yoga instructor who had no time to practice on his own-offers gentle stretches and guided meditations that can fit into anyone's schedule. Author and teacher Edward Vilga's goal is to make the practice of yoga accessible and fun, and he's chosen and named poses, from "Breakfast Bend" to "Winding Down Twist," that are within the range of most healthy individuals, and easy to do in the comfort and privacy of home.
Surprisingly easy and effective!May 14, 2005 M. Kelly(Seattle, WA) 26 out of 26 found this review helpful
If you're like me, you aren't sure when you became old enough to wake up a little stiff and sore and are wondering if this is the age you should look into expensive mattresses, pillows, or therapy? And you're not THAT old? Or, you could stop wondering this and invest less than $12 and a few minutes each morning and evening following these simple yoga poses. I can't tell you enough how much better I feel after about a week of this. The book is very attractively bound, easy to follow, and well worth it. I'm out of shape and it works - this is a great way to get active each day. I actually look forward to waking up and that has never, never been true. Try it!
Absolutely perfect!April 16, 2005 Aaron(USA) 18 out of 18 found this review helpful
I have a very stressful work day and this book has helped me immensely. Instead of dreading the sound of my alarm I now look forward to waking up and do the morning poses - something I can do before I even get out of bed! I feel like I have much more energy throughout the entire day. At night I do the bedtime poses and find it much easier to let my mind go and and get a good night's sleep. I now see why yoga has become so popular and this book makes the practice of yoga so accessible!
Great Mother's Day findMay 4, 2005 Sophie(Ann Arbor, Michigan) 9 out of 11 found this review helpful
I was having such trouble with this year's gift for my mother, and then I saw a mention of this little treasure in People's Magazine. It's perfect! I've been wanting to share my yoga experience with my mom, but I could never find anything so accessible to a "normal" person. Somehow it manages to be both fun and serious at the same time. I totally recommend it!
Fibro friendly stretches! Wonderful!May 12, 2008 ohsosorelady(NH) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I have fibromyalgia and other health problems that make my very stiff and sore. I have been looking to try yoga but everything is just too hard,fast or painful! Not this book! The book lays flat on the bed or the floor so you can have it handy while you are learning the stretches. You are encouraged to take it slow and easy too. These stretches are just as easily done on the floor too. For those of us that cant stand up for very long this is a very effective routine. If you can only do a few of these stretches then do those.You are introduced to simple meditation too. I enjoy this book so much I ordered the DVD too. I would love to give this book to everyone I know. Absolutely wonderful!!!!!!!!
