Yoga: Anytime, Anywhere Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Yoga Anytime, Anywhere by Carol Blackman and Elise Browning Miller is not just another book about how to do yoga exercizes. This one is REALLY designed for people on the go in busy lives who don't feel they have time to take out for exercize. The authors have creatievely presented traditional yoga moves to be done anywhere when you have two minutes or an hour. You can do some of these in the work place, on the plane, in a hotel room, or sitting at your desk! With great emphasis on proper breathing (prana) throughout, the book also has chapters on yoga for regulating your hormones during menstrual cycle relief, pregnancy, and healthy menopause. For when you are tired you'll also find chapters on Energizing Your Whole Body with postures that work "better than caffeine and are completely organic!" There are special poses for stretching and preparing for sports. And finally you'll find techniques for just relaxing and finding balance in your life. Each pose and exercize throughout the book is photographically illustrated, so the book serves well for "do it yourself" and requires no equipment. You'll love this book! A terrific gift for any age,

Good-Bye to Bad Backs: Stretching and Strengthening Exercises for Alignment and Freedom from Lower Back Pain Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Ten years ago I bought the second edition of this book to help me resolve severe back pain. At the time I could not bend over the sink when brushing my teeth without putting my hand on the counter because of the pain in my lower back. I used the exercises every day for about 6 weeks. At the end of that time I was back to jogging and being pain free. The book went onto my bookshelf.
Now I am taking the book out again. I haven't been maintaining the exercises and have low back pain again. I am confident that I'll be feeling good again by returning to the exercises that Judith Scott presents so well. The pictures and descriptions are wonderful.

Breathworks for Your Back Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Ms. Swayzee wrote her book for the lay person, yet you will find that it is not at all simplistic. IF YOU WANT RELIEF FROM LOW BACK PAIN OR IF YOU HAVE A HEALTHY BACK AND YOU WANT TO KEEP IT THAT WAY you must learn how to function, day to day, utilizing a stable trunk. This means, that YOUR UPPER BODY AND LOWER BODY NEED TO LEARN TO STAY TOGETHER AS A SINGLE, STABILIZED, UNIT as you lift, work, carry, etc. This book tells you how to use your inner abdominal muscles to achieve a stable trunk. In my opinion, the critical discovery set forth in this book is the use of forced-expiration breathing to achieve a body stabilizing abdominal contraction. This technique allows instant access to a stable trunk and can therefore be used moment to moment, throughout the day. I use her method constantly all day long. This is the only effective way I know to protect the back during the damaging rigors of everyday life. It allows a person to quickly target the proper abdominal muscles and then to maintain a more powerful, more sustained abdominal contraction when needed. During quieter activities when I am not lifting, pulling, pushing, carrying etc. I maintain a constant 10% to 15% contraction as a matter of routine posture. I look better and I feel better. IN FACT AFTER TWO YEARS OF SERIOUS DAILY LOW BACK PAIN, I FEEL GREAT!! If practiced for a few weeks, this health-preserving technique soon develops into a reflex that becomes automatic. THIS BOOK CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE!

Back Care Basics: A Doctor's Gentle Yoga Program for Back and Neck Pain Relief Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Suza Francina, author, The New Yoga for People Over 50, Mayor Pro-Tem from Ojai, California, writes:
"I have been teaching yoga to people of all ages for over 25 years. One of the most common reasons people begin a yoga class is to get rid of their aches and pains. I can say with complete confidence that of all the books I've read on therapeutic exercise for back and neck pain relief, Dr. Schatz book offers by far the most effective, individualized approach to a healthy back.
Back Care Basics goes beyond generic exercises and takes into account each person's special circumstances. It is a lifesaver for people caught in the viscious cycle of pain and fear. I have referred to it countless times creating yoga based exercise programs for people in chronic pain. In fact, almost my entire copy is highlighted or underlined!
If you or someone you love is suffering from back or neck pain, I encourage you to educate yourself by reading this book. I also hope that other health professionals working with people with back problems--chiropractors, massage and physical therapists, acupuncturists,etc., will read this book and leave it in their waiting room. Chiropractors tell me that patients who are practicing yoga rarely have acute back pain and their adjustments hold longer. People with back and neck problems benefit more from other therapies if they practice the gentle yoga program taught in Back Care Basics.
