Drawing from her new book, Boomer Yoga, Beryl Bender Birch introduces her dynamic new approach to yoga for the baby boomer generation. Boomer Yoga is soft enough to do, yet hard enough to challenge your body and mind—keeping your body young, your mind vibrant, and your spirit soaring.
Birch decodes yoga’s secrets, and reveals how, through steady and comfortable practice, you can find balance and preserve peace of mind. The key to Boomer Yoga is the conscious practice of keeping your heart open. Weaving together personal experience, philosophy, and practical techniques from her own 40 year yoga practice, Birch teaches how this practice, from asana to meditation, can be used for strength and longevity, and also to protect and restore the body from many common aspects of aging.
You learn to adapt your yoga practice to your age, lifestyle, and physical health, and take home an easy 40 minute routine to practice on your own. Whether you are new to yoga or a lifelong practitioner, you discover an energetic yoga method for staying agile, healthy, and fit.
