Yoga May be the Ideal Exercise for Seniors

What is yoga?

Yoga is centuries old combining mind and body practice that increases flexibility, strength, body awareness and a calmer mind just to mention a few of the benefits. The benefits of yoga are achieved through poses or specific positions done while standing, sitting or lying down. Breathing and mind focusing techniques accompany the physical poses. Yoga is safe to start  at an older age.

Many exercise routines and gyms are filled with technology to help you escape from the supposed boredom of exercise. This is totally opposite from yoga where the guiding principle is to move with awareness, to be mindful of what you are doing and how you are dong it, rather than mindlessly distracting yourself from physical activity.

There are many classes offered online and physical fitness facilities. Harvard Medical School offers special reports of yoga exercises.  Going to a class is a good way to learn yoga moves where you will have an experienced instructor to guide you along the correct process, and be able to ask questions. Classes include:

  • the beginner
  • restorative yoga
  • gentle yoga
  • yoga specific for seniors
  • chair yoga
  • and probably more
Classes with an informed instructor  emphasize moving slowly and carefully and most usually includes plenty of instructions on what should be done and what should be avoided.

What to take to your yoga classes:
  • a towel
  • bottled water or other healthy beverage, try taking Life's Abundance Minerals and Antioxidants Drink
  • wear loose clothing or yoga outfits
  • wear a nonslip pair of socks if you decide to wear socks, however, yoga is usually done barefoot
I personally like to exercise in clothes specifically designed for exercise which are yoga pants and a top that is fairly tight fitting as these types of clothes help you to move freely without free of exposing what is underneath the clothes.

I also like to take to my exercise sessions a healthy drink. I choose the Life's Abundance Antioxidant and Minerals drink as the healthy alternative to popular sugary sports drinks. Click photo below for more information and to purchase.

 Minerals and Antioxidants Drink Mix

  • 74 plant derived trace minerals
  • Antioxidants from 11 super fruits
  • Over 17,775 ORAC units a serving
  • Coconut water & aloe vera

  • Non GMO
  • Gluten free
  • Vegan
  • Soy free
  • Dairy free
  • Naturally flavored
  • No added sugar
  • No artificial flavors
  • No artificial colors
  • No artificial preservatives

Americans are deficient in minerals. In fact, way back in 1936, the Department of Agriculture told congress that 99% of the population was deficient. Regrettably, there are many more recent studies confirming varying amounts of mineral deficiencies in our diet, mainly due to their depletion in our soil. 

We need minerals! Vitamins cannot work properly without them and they are absolutely vital to maintain our mental and physical well being. Since the body cannot manufacture minerals, they must come from our diet. 

Life’s Abundance Minerals & Antioxidants drink mix is a delicious way to supplement your diet. 

This unique mix is made with a variety of freshly harvested sea vegetables and contains approximately 74-plant based, naturally chelated, trace minerals. For an additional nutritional boost, it also contains antioxidants from 11 nutrient-rich super fruits like acai, cranberry, goji, maqui and pomegranate ... making this a high ORAC beverage blend. ORAC stands for oxygen radical absorbance capacity and it's a way of measuring the antioxidant level, which is important because antioxidants are essential to good health. 

Unlike many liquid water enhancers made from chemicals, our formula is made with coconut water and aloe vera and it does not contain any added sugar, artificial flavors, colors or preservatives. The organic coconut water replaces electrolytes plus it is alkalizing, which helps to restore a natural pH balance in the body and counters the effects of an acidic diet. 

Instead of giving you a sugar crash like most other “health” drinks, our Minerals & Antioxidants mix gives you sustained energy. 

Give hydration a boost with Life’s Abundance Minerals & Antioxidants. In two delicious flavors, Cherry and Tropical Fruit, pour into a water bottle for a convenient, go-anywhere nutritious drink. Take it to the gym or give a bottle to the kids … it’s delicious, refreshing and nourishing!
