Back Care Basics - Yoga for the Rest of Us
This series of adapted poses are beneficial to back care. Strong, healthy back muscles provide
support for your spine and result in more energy and vitality in everything you do.
“At last, Yoga poses to protect your back and improve your posture. These simple but powerful exercises stretch and strengthen your back muscles, alleviate back pain caused by muscular tension, and with regular practice, keep back pain from returning!”— Peggy Cappy
Ease your back and improve your posture
Peggy designed the Back Care Basics program in six easy-to use segments plus a bonus. In four of the segments, Peggy guides you through stretches and yoga poses performed while on your back, side, belly or hands and knees. There is also a section to teach you a powerful breathing technique called the Full Yogic Breath. The program ends with Peggy’s guided relaxation, which will lead you to a place of peace and quiet within. Create your daily program, based on the time you have and the stretches you need. You will soon experience the difference that Back Care Basics makes in how you look and how you feel.
Peggy Discusses Back Care
“I have worked out with my friend and loved your DVD. It is the best Yoga exercise I have ever experienced." — Maggie
The special bonus segment of Back Care Basics details two restorative poses. These are positions where through the aid of a chair, pillows, or the wall, you simply relax and let gravity work for you to bring comfort to your body and peace to your mind.
