Editorial Review: Product Description: Amazon.com: Yoga instructor Barbara Benagh has practiced and taught yoga for nearly 35 years. She discovered yoga while living in England and began teaching there. She moved to Boston and opened The Yoga Studio on Beacon Hill in 1980. In addition to her local classes Barbara teaches yoga seminars throughout the US and internationally. She is a regular contributor of articles to Yoga Journal magazine. She has several audio CDs of live classes available as well as DVDs, the latest being Yoga for Beginners released by Body + Soul magazine, and Yoga for Stress Relief that includes a discussion on meditation from the Dalai Lama. Barbara was kind enough to answer some questions from Amazon.com about this unique line of yoga DVDs.
I was drawn to working with Bodywisdommedia because they produce DVDs they are interactive. Rather than a "one size fits all" single routine that is typical of most products, these DVDs offer choice, allowing the user to customize and change their yoga practice to suit their needs. No two persons are the same so the ability to change your practice - easing shoulder tension one day and an invigorating morning wake up the next - come as close as possible to allowing you to address your individual needs at home. Not only do people have different physical needs, but they have different time constraints as well. If you have only 20 minutes, there is a practice for you but there are longer practices as well (some as long as 90 minutes) that address the total body/mind connection. The sheer number of yoga sequences offered on each of these DVDs is a first. They are incredibly comprehensive. How were you able to get the Dalai Lama involved? This project dovetailed perfectly with the Dalai Lama's message that modern stress is one of the greatest obstacles to our mental happiness and physical wellbeing. Because we are long-time sincere practitioners, having a 30-minute lecture of the Dalai Lama teaching how to meditate on the Yoga for Stress Relief DVD was a perfect fit. Bodywisdommedia also has a broader relationship with the Office of Tibet and are releasing historic lectures with "A Path to Happiness" being the first one. How will potential buyers of these DVDs know which one is right for them? The titles are very indicative of what appears on the DVD and therefore a good guide. I really enjoyed making Yoga for Stress Relief because it is incredibly relevant. We strove to make the sequences accessible to as many people as possible, whether they are a beginner or long time practitioner. Yoga for Beginners is a great, non-threatening place to get started and includes lots of sound technique developed over my 30 years as a yoga teacher. Power Yoga for Every Body is a bit more challenging taking you from the beginning level and gradually progressing to much more demanding routines. Average Rating:
 Rating: - A Fantastic VideoThis DVD really stands out in my collection - not just because of how much is on the video, but how effective the workouts are at relieving stress and helping me relax. I am a big fan of this matrix idea in general and this one is really exceptional. A great DVD. Rating: - Helps AlotThis is my second DVD with this teacher, while the first one was an introduction to yoga, this one focuses on yoga for various ailments. The workouts cover various physical issues (headaches, digestion, shoulder pain) plus general calming down/peace of mind (insomnia) and have been very helpful to me. Well done DVD and very good to have those times you need help to feel better. Rating:  - Helps me sleepI bought this to deal with my Insomnia which was severely affecting my quality of life. After buying, I following the evening relaxation routine and it help me got to sleep. It does work more often than not. I would highly recommend it to anyone having sleep issues. Rating: - Another Good DVDI really enjoy Barbara's DVDs. Her instruction and speaking always is relaxing and helps me enjoy what she is presenting. I love the breathwork routines alot, easy to do and are very relaxing and the routines to help with neck and shoulder tension are very effective. Another beautiful DVD and the Dalai Lama's discussion of meditation and how it affects us is very interesting. Rating: - Soothing And HealingI have a few DVDs now by this instructor and enjoy them all. Like the others, this one is broken down into 4 main sections covering the general subject (Beginning and Ending Your Day, Neck, Shoulder and Back Issues, Breathing Exercises to Calm the Mind and Stomach and Digestion Issues), with a good selection of routines and poses in each section. Has helped me with aches and pains in the areas. Browse for similar items by category:
