Stiff joints don't have to mean sitting on the sidelines.
Chair and Floor Yoga for Arthritis is a gentle, illustrated guide built for one goal: helping you move again, at your own pace, whatever your current mobility looks like. Whether you're working from a chair on a difficult pain day or ready for a full floor-and-standing flow, this book meets you exactly where you are and gives you a clear next step.
Inside, you'll find:
- A simple self-assessment that places you on the right starting level, no guesswork
- Three complete 4-week programs-seated, seated-to-standing, and full mobility flow-so you always know what comes next
- 52 step-by-step exercises, each with its own illustration, breathing cue, and easier or harder variation
- Four dedicated chapters for hands, shoulders, hips, and knees, so you can target the joint that bothers you most
- A flare-up plan for the days when your usual routine feels like too much
- Breathing and relaxation techniques to help ease pain and tension
- Everyday habits for building a routine that lasts well beyond the first four weeks
Written for adults living with arthritis or joint pain across a wide range of ages and mobility levels-not only seniors-this is a practice you can return to from a chair or the floor, using little more than a sturdy chair, a mat or padded surface, and a small amount of open space. A clear medical-safety reminder opens the book, and every exercise includes a safety cue so you always know how far is far enough.
Start where you are today. Your joints will thank you tomorrow.
