Relaxation & Breathing for Meditation

Buy This Item Relaxation & Breathing for Meditation by Gaiam  Available from Amazon  $10.99  on 1-6-2009     The importance of the breath is familiar to anyone who practices yoga, as is its significance in the pursuit of a deeper, more meditative state. But it never hurts to be reminded of that connection, especially as yoga's growing popularity has turned it in a more active, less contemplative direction. The title of this DVD program pretty much describes the content; it consists of two approximately 30-minute sections, one ("Conscious Relaxation") devoted to several easy, relaxation-inducing poses and the other ("Conscious Breahing") focusing entirely on the breath itself. (Also included are an 8-minute "guided meditation" and an interview with instructor Rodney Yee.) It's unlikely that you'll break a sweat, and you won't "go for the burn," as yoga practitioners seem intent on doing these days--but you might reach a place of stillness that's considerably more profound. Note: The use of certain props (mat, blanket, pillow, chair) is recommended. <I>--Sam Graham</I> Reader Reviews I think I was expecting something a little slower and with more explainations. Rodney is very good at what he does, but I have used a few of his DVD's and noticed that he does stuff a little faster than I like. When I look for "beginner" instruction, this doesn't exactly fit my description. Maybe I'm just dumb...
