Chair yoga, avoiding burnout, developing new habits, and healthy eating.

This book takes us through the journey of Maya. An overworked attorney, wife, and mother. Feeling unhappy with her body shape, she experiences burnout, which leads to mood swings. She admits that she has become overweight and low on stamina with falling energy levels. She recognises this is due to a lifestyle that is mostly sedentary – sitting at a desk all day or tired on the couch at home. When challenged by a colleague to re-define her relationship with her body. She is encouraged to take up chair yoga and to slowly build up a daily routine. Maya is able to overcome resistance and setbacks through journaling and researching how the body works. The reader learns alongside Maya to discern how  patterns of self neglect can creep into their lives. We gain insight into incorporating movement and healthy eating habits.

The book offers a practical approach and is  accompanied by access to a video library, which can help achieve the correct movement and body alignment. The reader has the choice of switching between reading and listening to the audio book by scanning the QR codes provided.

I liked the simplicity of this book, and the Yoga exercises it shows you had to perform. As an "older" (not elderly) woman who has not had an exercise routine for years, this is a great one to start at this stage in my life. If you have a chair, you can use this book to create an exercise routine that will be easy for anyone of any age with almost any physical limitations.

amazing narrative guide

I really enjoyed the narrative style of this book with the option of audio portions through qr codes. The illustrations and examples of exercises were great as well

Good if you like reading

If you are looking for a strictly a guide with exercises - skip about 3/4 of the book, that’s where there exercises and descriptions appear.

However, if you are interested to read a quite significant amount of back story - this guide is for you.
