Get Fit Where You Sit - Paperback Book - A Guide to the Lakshmi Voelker Chair Yoga Method - by Lakshmi Voelker - 9781611809251 - Shambhala Publications Inc

Lakshmi Voelker’s Chair Yoga™ method upends the myth that yoga is only for the flexible, strong, balanced, thin, and conventionally able-bodied. Whether you need or want chair support, or you would like to get in some yoga practice while you sit at your work desk, Get Fit Where You Sit offers 40 active and restorative poses, illustrated with 250 photos, along with breathing techniques and meditation practices—all adapted so that you don’t have to leave your chair. Poses include:

Tree Pose—for a flexible spine and to combat the “slump” we often get with a sedentary lifestyle

Eagle Pose—for healthy joints

Squat Pose—to relax the lower back

Knee-to-Chest Pose—to support good digestion

Coherent breathing—to bring the body’s systems into balance

And much more
