Easy to follow

I have been telling my mom about chair yoga for quite some time as she is a fall risk and lives alone. Over the last few years she has continued to decrease her activity and does not go out as often anymore because of her her and physical limitations. I told her she needed to try chair yoga to start to help herself with her flexibility and to work on her balance. She said she is finally ready after she fell and could not get up for several hours until someone heard her yelling.

Okay so now, with this book, we both listened to it and did several of the exercises together. I wanted to be there to support her so she didn’t feel alone. She did amazing. The instructions were clear and the author explains the importance of staying mobile and flexible to keep our health in good condition. I feel very confident that my mom can continue working through this book. It’s a perfect speed for her and it’s meant for beginners so it’s going to be a great starting point for her.

Chair yoga can be for everyone

Though many people think your yoga is just for seniors, I found out that there are also poses for the younger generation. Included with the audio is a small booklet showing many of the poses the author talks about. She also explains how to stay safe, the routines, and a type of diet that will keep your work, workouts, strong, and healthy. Towards the end, it had some stories of others who shared their experiences and their great outcomes. if you would like to stretch and strengthen your muscles safely this book is for you.

Fun and Accessible for ALL!

I’ve always been a bit wary of yoga, thinking it wasn’t for me. But this book has completely changed my mind. With Heather’s voice guiding the way, each session is like having a personal yoga instructor in my living room.

Her approach is so down-to-earth and full of humor that I found myself laughing while learning. It’s not just about the movements; it’s about enjoying the journey to better health. This audiobook has become a cherished part of my daily routine, offering a delightful mix of wellness and wit.

Heather, thank you for making yoga accessible and fun for everyone, regardless of age or flexibility. Your book is a little ray of sunshine that has brightened my days.

Finding Fitness After Fifty

For years, staying active felt like a distant memory. My knees just couldn't handle high-impact exercise anymore. Then I discovered this book and it is a lifesaver! It shows you how to use a chair to get a gentle yet effective workout, improving flexibility, strength, and even sleep. Chapter on How to Speak Yoga really surprised me. I worried yoga would be filled with confusing terms. But the book explains everything clearly, breaking down poses and breathing techniques into simple steps. Now, I can follow along with confidence, even with my limited mobility.

I love Yoga!

I recently purchased “The Joy of Chair Yoga,” and it has truly transformed my approach to fitness and relaxation. As someone with limited mobility, traditional yoga poses were always a challenge, but this book made yoga accessible, enjoyable, and highly effective.

The instructions are clear and easy to follow, with modifications that suit various levels of ability. I love how the book emphasizes listening to your body and moving at your own pace, making the practice feel personal and deeply rewarding. The sequences are thoughtfully designed, providing a perfect balance between relaxation, stretching, and gentle strengthening exercises.

Entertaining Chair Yoga from a Seasoned Health Professional

I love how the author teaches in a lighthearted, humorous and inviting tone.

There are foundational poses explained simply with an accompanying pdf. With illustrations of the poses. This book is sure to motivate you to begin a chair yoga practice providing lots of “why” and “how.”
