Chair Yoga is a gentle form of Yoga. With so many types of Yoga available, here is one that most of us can practice. Inversions and complicated maneuvers are not necessary in a Chair Yoga class.

This helps with balancing poses, and most common Yoga postures can be modified for the chair. We have one particular Chair Yoga class, in Pawtucket, RI, that uses both chairs ...

Flexibility is considered to be a "by product" of Yoga practice, but in the case of Chair Yoga, it is often "down played" or taken for granted.

Garlic is a traditional tonic in many cultures. In my teens and twenties, I was very aware that one should not eat garlic or onions out of respect for other people (e.g., bosses or potential dates). However, garlic breath does not bother me nearly so much as the foul stenches caused by tobacco use, lazy dental care, lack of exercise, obesity, and / or poor bowel regularity. I now use a lot of garlic, bought as pre-peeled cloves or dried minced chunks. I frankly like the taste. For those who ...

I had a young colleague who suffered from polio in child- hood, so one leg was short and supported by a built-up shoe. One day, this person was absent from the office, because a lung had collapsed. He should at least ...
