5 out of 5 stars Needed DVD    December 31, 2008

If you're stressed, you need this DVD. I have had anxiety for years and coped through medicinal ways. After becoming sick of taking pills to calm down, I turned to this DVD, and now look forward to it every evening. Barbara teaches you ways to train yourself to remain calm throughout the day, not just during the practice. My husband who isn't the type to do Yoga, will even lay down and attempt some of the moves, after seeing my transition to calmness after each practice. I'm so thankful for this DVD.

This video covers just about every stress related issue you could have. The yoga practices average around a half hour with some longer and some shorter but lots to choose from close to the half hour range.

The instruction is well thought out and she gives good pointers along the way of things to keep in mind when performing the various poses.

The beach setting is a perfect choice for the stress relief. The section with the Dalai Lama discussing meditation is a nice addition too.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent way to reduce stress and be healthy    December 17, 2008

I wasn't experienced at yoga, but knew I wanted to find new ways to unwind. This DVD made me fall in love with yoga. I am especially impressed with the large variety of routines of varying lengths. There are several routines to deal with digestion issues, anxiety and stress relief, back and body pain, insomnia, and more! I have noticed a difference in my stress level and overall health since I bought this DVD.


5 out of 5 stars I use this more than any other    December 12, 2008

Every day or two, no matter what else I've done in the way of exercise and/or yoga, I do one of the shorter sessions on this DVD. Barbara Benagh is a very relaxing instructor with a convincing and kind voice. I find the passive upper back and neck very helpful as I often ache there after a day hunched over the computer. The insomnia and the letting go of the day routines are amazingly relaxing. Actually I like all the shorter routines.
I own a lot of yoga DVDs and I practice four or five days a week, usually from a half hour to an hour, usually Rodney Yee or that wonderful Ali McGraw DVD (Eric Schiffman teaches) Sometimes I do the long AM yoga session on this DVD. (For this I take her instructions to move the shoulder back in one of the twists with a grain of salt as this is one way I can hurt my stiff shoulders. I find it better to concentrate on the twisiting of the torso and take the shoulder and arm back very gently.
It's wonderful to have so much wonderful stuff to choose from on one DVD. A true bargain. If I could only have one yoga DVD, this would be it.


5 out of 5 stars Good addition to my collection    December 7, 2008

If you're looking for a yoga DVD specifically to work on reducing stress and dealing with the effects of stress on your mind and body this is a good choice. The instruction is very easy to follow and Barabra's voice is calm and even. There are routines for the morning and evening, for insomnia, neck pain, digestive issues and many other things.

This has been a nice addition to my yoga DVD collection and I've recommended it to several friends.
