Chair Yoga - Day 6 - 20 Minutes Seated

[@AmyGoehner]

Thank you, Carol. I find myself looking forward to this class every day, which is about the biggest compliment I can share. Your gentle encouragement is so effective. See you tomorrow!

[@BottomsDown]

Wow, thank you! It warms my heart to know that my encouragement keeps you coming back for more. Keep it up and I'll see you tomorrow.

[@lizbeardmore4473]

I loved the flowing movements of Day 6, really getting the blood circulated, with the added bonus of feeling warm on this cool morning, as we begin to move into winter weather. Thank you Carol. Namaste xx (My post from Day 6 of the 28 day challenge has popped up here, back to when I had considerable muscle/joint inflammation. It is has been such a joy, with the help of steriods and your wonderful, gently, mindful stretches to experience my body opening and softening again.)

[@BottomsDown]

Isn't yoga lovely? I'm so glad you are enjoying Bottoms Down. Keep up the great work and I'll see you tomorrow.

[@lizbeardmore4473]

This just gets better! Waking up with such stiffness in my arms, it was such a joy to stretch them (in different directions!). Looking forward to Day 7! Thank you Carol. Namaste xx

[@BottomsDown]

[@BottomsDown]

Thank you for the feedback. So glad the challenge is going well for you.

[@mindfulpeace8060]

Love this one with the twists! I did 5 practices in a row. Love it, because it gets me into stretches I need for the muscles I do not stretch often enough. I like the slow pace, and focusing inward, and the space of time! This is so good for me!! I am very grateful for finding your channel this morning!

[@BottomsDown]

Yea! So glad to hear that. Keep going strong. See you tomorrow.

Wow! Have just found your channel, Carol, and I LOVE it! I have done the first 6 lessons of the 28-day challenge in the last two days! Being in the chair has made it so much better because of my issues with arthritis. Thank you ❤

Best chair yoga ever, yuo feel your doing yoga❤

[@BottomsDown]

I totally agree! We do all the yoga poses, we just don't get up and down off the floor. Keep up the great work. See you tomorrow.

[@jemis4823]

Day 6 so wonderful thank you so much, see you tomorrow Jemi

[@BottomsDown]

You're welcome! I'm so glad you liked it. See you tomorrow, for sure!

[@vacoulterYOU]

Day 6 felt great, too. I love that this is building toward a “full” yoga workout … I assume even with standing we’ll still be avoiding going down on our knees which is bad for my arthritis. In a variety of classes it seems that modified knee work and child’s pose are considered no problem at the easy level. However they are the death of ne even though I still want some good stretches and even heart work. Thank you! Looking forward to growing in this again after all these years.

[@BottomsDown]

You are correct. We never get on and off the floor. We remain seated in the chair or we stand. I'm so glad you have joined us on this journey. Keep it up and yes, it builds to some challenging yoga poses. See you tomorrow!

[@joannvorndran8769]

I'm truly enjoying this. I've never liked yoga as I always felt to distracted but this is not the case. Thank you

Adding this chair yoga to my morning routine has been such a gift. I am doing yoga in a bigger body. The only trouble I’m having is in forward bends. My belly is really in the way. Any ideas how I could approach them a little differently?

[@rebeccajorgensen6182]

Oops! Just saw your reply to this question from an earlier comment. 😁

[@BottomsDown]

Yea! I'm so glad that you're adding Bottoms Down chair yoga to your morning routine. What about taking your feet and legs wide. Then as you forward fold, you have space between your knees for your upper body. Give that a try and see what you think. Keep coming back!

[@shirleymcintyre4732]

Thank you so much❤

[@BottomsDown]

You are very welcome. See you next time!

[@sarahtremain8134]

I’m already noticing more movement thank you. I’m worried about the standing positions as I’m not very stable. 😊

[@BottomsDown]

Hey there - I'm so glad to hear that you are noticing improvements. First of all, remember that you can stay seated and continue to do the poses from a seated position. Or, you can choose from over 180 classes on the Bottoms Down KZbin channel (kzbin.info) that are all seated. Scroll down to the section Chair Yoga by Position and select "all seated". I've also included a link below. Keep up the great work! Let me know how it's going. kzbin.info/aero/PLD2LeigHmZ4GKGIaoFmuAJaeKu1wToiLM

Hi, I’m a 280 lb woman. 63 years young What’s the best way to modify when you can’t bend to the floor or cross your legs. I do what I can do.

[@BottomsDown]

Welcome! So glad you've joined the Bottoms Down community. The modification for bending forward is to put your forearms on your thighs and let your heart/chest fall forward, keeping your back flat. Cross at your ankles instead of legs. Way to go and keep up the great work! We all just do what we can do.
