Product Description

A therapeutic yin practice that activates the body’s self-healing potential through total relaxation and stillness

• Presents gentle, adapted postures to promote recovery from injury and illness and relief from stress and fatigue

• Includes transitional yoga movements and stretches to perform between the postures to release stiffness and lubricate the muscles

• Contains a deck of 16 posture cards and a 75-minute audio CD of guided practice

In The Therapeutic Yoga Kit, Cheri Clampett and Biff Mithoefer combine the gentle healing of Therapeutic Yoga and the quiet awareness of a yin practice to present 16 gentle postures that relieve stress and fatigue and promote recovery from injury and illness. Therapeutic Yoga is a blend of Restorative Yoga, gentle yoga, breathwork, and meditation that releases the body from the fight-or-flight response caused by traumatic events and life’s everyday stresses. A yin practice encourages the attitude of acceptance and helps us leave behind our yang need for constant striving and action.

Each pose represents a gentle, adapted posture that is held for 10 minutes or more in a fully supported state. The authors also include transitional yoga movements and stretches to perform during the routine to release stiffness, rejuvenate the muscles, and lubricate the joints. The 16 posture cards and 75-minute audio CD of guided routines and meditations that accompany the text facilitate the creation of a personalized practice. The authors emphasize achieving total relaxation in the specific postures to activate the body’s self-healing abilities. It is in this place of comfort and stillness where true healing begins.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic kit- great for fibromyalgia and other chronic conditions!, February 4, 2009
This review is from: The Therapeutic Yoga Kit: Sixteen Postures for Self-Healing through Quiet Yin Awareness (Paperback)
The therapeutic yoga kit is the best collection of materials I've seen for practicing yin yoga, yoga therapy, and restorative poses. The kit is fantastic for a variety of conditions: chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia; arthritis; illness and injury; pregnancy; seniors; and anyone wanting a yin yoga practice using props. I've taught yoga for fibromyalgia and I highly recommend the poses in this kit for this population.

What makes this kit so great is how practical it is. Small cards with photos and instructions for poses are included and handy to place on your mat during practice. The companion CD is perfect for a guided practice. The book is packed with useful explanatory information but is edited skillfully.

This kit contains the best collection of pose variations for restorative yoga and yin yoga I've seen. The prop use is particularly handy for yin yoga students and teachers, since yin yoga creator Paul Grilley's book and DVD do not include much prop use. Students will find the poses easy to follow. Teachers will find new pose variations for their restorative and yin classes. The color cards are also handy to use while teaching.

As a yin yoga teacher who works with seniors and fibromyalgia patients, I can't say enough good things about the therapeutic yoga kit. The kit is accessible for beginners and inspiring for experienced students and teachers.

By K. Spahr (Columbus, OH, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Therapeutic Yoga Kit: Sixteen Postures for Self-Healing through Quiet Yin Awareness (Paperback)
Everyone NEEDS this wonderful tool box for self-healing and relaxation. Whether you're pregnant, healing from injury or illness, or just plain in need of a little tender loving self-care...experienced yogi or absolute beginner...gentle practioner or vinyasa enthusiast...this is a practice for everyone. Don't just look at the pictures. There is a treasure trove of helpful information in the book. If you occassionally feel like you don't have the energy to pick up the book or use the helpful posture cards...there's a wonderful guided practice CD as well. This is a wonderful gift for yourself or someone you know.
