Top Ten Tips - a Guide to Your Health and Sanity by a Yoga Teacher

My expertise is in using yoga and meditation to improve quality of life for older people - as a prevention or as a part of stroke recovery, mobility issues, chronic pain due to arthritis, osteoporosis, etc.

In light of the recent lockdown measures I have pivoted my business, not only to provide a regular daily online yoga schedule of support digitally but creating a gift certificate system for family members of elderly isolated people to purchase which will allow them to access guided activity sessions. It has been created for those who worry about parents or grandparents not getting enough exercise in isolation but can also help with fall prevention and breathing exercises.

Better balance for life, Banish the Fear of Falling

The elderly.
We are all here because of them, our parents, our grandparents. We owe them everything.
This new situation puts them at the highest risk of getting infected with the virus. They are isolated. They might have many different health concerns, and also some might be facing anxiety, fear, depression.
Their physical functions might be deteriorating because of lack of activities, or simply because they age.
As we all age, we lose balance first and then fear of falling and suffering a severe, oftentimes life-threatening injury prevent them from moving a lot even when in limited space.
