 | The "Sitting Mountain" Chair Yoga Mat concept is used by many people who are unable to practice yoga due to the physical inability to get up and get going. This can include people in wheelchairs and many Seniors.
The "Sitting Mountain" Yoga Mat Kit for a chair, developed by Yoga therapist Lakshmi Voelker, includes an audio CD and a 43 page illustrated tutorial booklet. Chair Yoga can benefit those who have a physical condition that requires them to exercise on a chair. This includes many with arthritis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, osteoporosis, stroke and those in a wheelchair. It is also an excellent form of Yoga and exercise for those who just do not want to get down on the floor, yet desire the same results and benefits of traditional Yoga.
The "Sitting Mountain" Series also has a tremendous potential for the corporate setting. It provides a stress-free workout in the comfort of a worker's chair without leaving the office.
Lakshmi Voelker's Chair Style Yoga provides an exellent way to oxygenate the body and mind, which in turn, increases productivity. As the body becomes more flexible and the mind more centered, the worker obtains energy boosts without the use of stimulants.
The CD contains one 30-minute and two 15-minute Yoga sessions. The 43-page tutorial booklet uses pictures and words to guide you through each session. The booklet will fit in a shirt pocket or purse so you can carry it with you and do your Chair Yoga without the CD if desired.
