Yoga, Listening To Your Body

Bob Crowther, in his 60's, notes how his body responded to a whole body and non-impact form of yoga - relieving many different health symptoms frequently experienced by males and females at all ages.

Yoga has enriched my life and is reflected in my biological rather than chronological age - i am able to move my body as demonstrated in the image below, in ways not normally associated with a male in their sixth decade.

The positive outcomes from daily yoga practice and attending classes approaching three years continue to inform and motivate me: i learned how to listen to my body - responding to sensory information from diverse, full body movements in various positions - to avoid injury or pain. 

Bob became stronger with enhanced balance and flexibility abilities along with an ability to better control his breathing, to calm his mind.

Many of Bob's yoga clients experience the following health symptoms and associated pain that compromises their mobility: 

*stiff muscles   *knee pains   *back aches   *difficulty twisting the torso or neck   *trouble getting to the floor and up again   *increasing loss of balance   *weight issues   *arthritis

Bob encourages the men and women he instructs to listen to their bodies and to take the first steps to acknowledge that the above symptoms and medical conditions (including a heart attack, diabetes, high blood pressure) reflect on your biology and fitness level - warning signs that provide opportunities to change attitudes and behaviors.  

Put yourself first. Focus on positive actions that will reduce discomfort to make you feel better. 

Read about the customized instruction,coaching Bob offers prospective clients and Bob's story.

Independent of age, gender and body type, most individuals doing yoga regularly can become more mobile over time and reduce their pain without relying on frequent use of prescription medications.

Iyengar in 90's continues his daily yoga practice
Bob will share his experiences and introduce you to the gentle form of hatha yoga established, taught and promoted by the Indian, B. K. S. Iyengar, author of Light on Yoga

Iyengar's approach recognizes individual differences and capabilities with an emphasis on using props to facilitate positioning and moving the body in a safe, gentle  manner.   

Ongoing Yoga Research

The science behind the claimed benefits of yoga that Bob and others have articulated are currently being evaluated by the National Institutes of Health located in Bethesda, Maryland, USA. 

Federal research grants have been awarded to investigators in several medical disciplines.

Studies include probing questions about anatomical, physiological and psychological attributes of yoga, including the Iyengar method.
