Gradual build up of muscle strength. Easy to follow. The shoulders to neck to top of head and chin positions need to be relaxed. Enjoy the whole body when exercising,. This can help to flow the energy. Clear demo. Alternative, Hover hands over a counter top or table doing the balance exercise. Help your balance to get better rather than challenge. Halfway tandem is good, one foot, beside, your other foot. Simple routine, will bring well being.... just “do” .....

Hi, my Mum isn’t quite this able. She’s 86 and has had several strokes which have affected her balance and mobility very much. She was able to do the seated ones, and she may be able to do some of these, but not the first one - getting up and down from a chair 10 times. Do you have any slightly easier standing exercises videos that last about 10 minutes?

[@edithmolino3590]

[@themovingintosleepmethod]

It's good to perform exercises daily. I would advice this sweet lady to relax her jaw, and allow her breathing to be free all the time. In the nervous system jaw muscles affect the way your body keeps you in balance against the gravity, so if your soften your jaw muscles, doing movement exercises gets easier. Continuous breathing is also important, any time you hold your breathing, part of the spine becomes stiff, making it harder to move freely.
