User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars Very Versatile
This DVD is perfect for many conditions that cause discomfort during your day. Barbara explains the poses very well and the poses are easy to do. Her ability to know where people may have issues and offer suggestions as she is intructing you is well done.
I have been trying to meditate more and the Easing Your Mind routines are really nice for this. Her interview about yoga and stress provides some good information on how yoga is helpful and how stress affects us. Well worth the 20 minutes to watch that section.
4 Stars Pretty good dvd
I purchased this dvd based on all the great reviews. While it is wonderful to have such a wide array of choices for each yoga session, I found it strange that each yoga pose is a separate piece. There’s a delay between each pose…they don’t flow from one to the other. I guess this helps the makers of the dvd customize each segment but it’s not really conducive to a yoga session. Also, some of the poses seem very basic and then suddenly the instructor is working at a very high level and twisting her arm around to the other waist from the back.
However, I do really like this DVD, but I’m tending to use the one where the poses flow from one to the other a bit more.
5 Stars The best yoga dvd ever!!
I am obsessed with this dvd. It is just as spiritual as it is physical. It has made an absolute difference in my life. When I do it I could do it for so long. One time I was meditating with this dvd and I literally felt like I left the earth. I didn’t stop for over an hour and a half. I didn’t want it to stop. First of all, the setting is unreal. She’s on the beach and the waves are crashing and there’s birds tweeting. It just relaxes you to watch this. She is a wonderful instructor and talks you through all the moves and offers modified versions in case you have a weak back or knees, etc. There is so much you can do on this dvd. The list goes on and on. There’s stuff you can do for 15 minutes if that’s all you have or you can do as much as you can like me. I feel so centered and peaceful when I work with this dvd. It’s perfect if you’re like me and don’t feel comfortable in a class. I’m not sure I would be able to meditate the way I do! Well great dvd, I am working collecting ALL her dvd’s!
5 Stars Needed DVD
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.
5 Stars Just What I Needed
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.
