Book Description

October 15, 2005 The Morning Cup series
Good balance makes every exercise routine easier, and even ordinary walking, standing, sitting, and bending are much more comfortable after some training in balance. Exercises that also build flexibility and strength work best to adjust and improve a person's sense of balance, and this guide provides step-by-step instructions for a daily 15-minute workout that will increase confidence, relaxation, and gracefulness in movement. Particularly helpful for active older people who want to maintain agility and strength with a quick and simple morning exercise routine, the accompanying CD also goes through the exercises and offers tips to enhance well-being.

More About the Author

I am a physical therapist, author, and teacher. I like to bridge the gap between Eastern and Western medical practices to help people live healthier and happier!

My books, "A Morning Cup of Balance" and "A Morning Cup of Massage" use traditional physical therapy methods combined with techniques and exercises from Traditional Chinese Medicine. Both books are written with you in mind. The tone is friendly and inviting because I want you to try the routines and discover for yourself the power of listening to your bodymind.

5.0 out of 5 stars Enhances Balance, February 9, 2006
This review is from: A Morning Cup of Balance (The Morning Cup series) (Spiral-bound)
"Research has shown that any exercise that helps build muscular strength and endurance will improve your ability to function in your daily life." ~Dr. Alan Walmsley

A Morning Cup of Balance is a 15-minute routine that encourages a deeper awareness of how the body moves when you present balance challenges. Not only is this a fun routine, it can help you prevent injuries in daily life. The exercises are designed to increase strength, stability and flexibility. You will be standing, sitting and also moving back and forth and side to side. While you don't need anything more than a chair, a ball is useful during the "ball toss" segment, although you can also use a pillow.

Kim Bright-Fey guides you through a personal training session on the CD and the book is a convenient reference, complete with pictures of each exercise and detailed information. A "Routine at a Glance" page is useful as a quick reference guide. There is a short "Tai Chi" for Balance section and an introduction to using Imagery for Better Balance. To truly enjoy these sections, you may also want to look for "A Morning Cup of Meditation" and "A Morning Cup of Tai Chi."

Also look for:

A Morning cup of Strengthening
A Morning Cup of Yoga
A Morning Cup of Stretching
A Morning Cup of Pilates
A Morning Cup of Massage

Each book comes with a CD and the CD is very useful when you are traveling. Each book and CD provides a little escape from daily existence, then you can enter the world again: refreshed and strengthened.
