Cas,

 

Erich Schiffmann ( http://www.movingintostillness.com/teach.htm ) is the master

teacher on this Yoga video starring Ali McGraw. It is only 12.99 from Amazon

and if

one does it for two weeks 6 days a week...it will definitely open up the tight

areas

in your body... It causes some kind of shift mentally also and I cannot figure

out

it does it but it does; Shifted my husband, me and also my two

step-daughters... all

of us were more peaceful inside.

 

It has 29 reviews and 25 of them are positive. One shouldn't try to do the

stetches

all the way in the beginning but rather just within your limits..with a little

push.

I think the shift may be two-fold in nature. From the mental aspect: we devote

time to

ourselves, thus honoring who we are. Though physical in nature, the breath is

something

that we experience within ourselves, thus opening the possibility of moving

inward

mentally. From the physical aspect: with proper breathing, we take in more

oxygen, which,

in turn, allows of each cells to function closer toward their optimum. When the

body

begins to function better, we begin to feel better.

But then, what do I know? This is just one Man's theory..........

Mandy,

 

All you say is true, however something about the body postures seem to open up

areas of the

body where they were locked or something. I can do a Firm workout tape (very

good for the

body and such) and it doesn't do the same as the Yoga tape. When doing the Firm

I 'feel'

better but the Yoga makes me shift into a more peaceful mentality with or

without breathing

correctly. It is positively weird. I told my Co-Chair at work I had to quit

doing the Yoga

and he asked 'why?' and I said " it is changing me mentally and I am starting to

LIKE my job

and its scary " . rof He said; " that IS scary " . rof
