Nearly all of us would like less stress in our lives, a better ability to focus, improved health, and a fitness routine that we truly enjoy. You may be surprised to learn that yoga provides all of these benefits with a system of exercises that can be adapted to any age or level of fitness.

Today, millions of people practice yoga, from young to old, from the hyper-athletic to those dealing with chronic diseases. Based on extensive studies, yoga is recognized as one of the most effective activities for achieving a healthy mind and body. Yoga's many poses and exercises make it endlessly interesting and emotionally rich, giving you a wealth of options for designing a practice that fits your needs. Isn't it time to get started - not just learning about yoga, but doing it?

The 12 half-hour lectures of Yoga for a Healthy Mind and Body, taught by acclaimed yoga teacher Dr. Heidi Sormaz, are the ideal first step for a newcomer and a fascinating journey of discovery for those who already practice. If you think, "I'm not flexible enough to do yoga," you should try this course. Dr. Sormaz reveals that there is a practice that will work for you and help you on your road to a healthier mind and body.

Great Course not hardly

OK in chapter one the narrator says "Watch me do it first before you try to do it". So they took the audio from a video and made it a "Great Course" . Really a failure Then on top of that the voice of Audible comes on in between chapters to warn you that this is not a substitute for real medical treatment and as he talks Siri goes off to ask me what to do... Where was the supervisor of the audio folks... This is the ultimate failure of all audiobooks... Audible, wake up then hang your head in shame.
