If you can sit in a chair, you can enjoy the benefits of yoga!

Chair Yoga For Dummies is a guide to developing a yoga practice that you can do while seated in a chair. Traditional yoga poses can be replicated as sitting yoga poses and stretches, making them enjoyable and accessible for people at all levels of experience and mobility. There's a reason yoga has been around for thousands of years. Practising chair yoga regularly can decrease your blood pressure, anxiety, inflammation, and chronic pain. It also increases flexibility, balance, and strength. And it helps you sleep better, too. All you need to get started is yourself, a chair, and this book—couldn't be simpler.

With this book on your desk, you can infuse a little namaste into your office routine or build a personalised home practice that fits your lifestyle and abilities. You’ll learn specific poses to target problem areas and receive guidance on creating your own chair yoga workout plan. Practitioners can achieve meditation, flexibility goals, and more.
