Finally, anxiety and insomnia relief! 5 out of 5
A few years ago I developed severe anxiety and panic symptoms that nearly led to a home-bound case of agoraphobia. On the verge of losing my job and desperate for a cure I stumbled across this on Amazon and decided that at the price it was worth a shot. Within days of starting these routines my symptoms were drastically reduced, eventually to the point that I was able to handle my disorder without the use of medication. (This is in no way to discount the role of psychiatry/psychology in treating this disorder, I believe they are an integral part of overcoming it, but this DVD truly changed the course my life was on.) The breathing exercises help to retrain your breathing pattern, which in states of panic and anxiety are altered, and can be implemented quietly during your day to day life without drawing attention to yourself. I have even used them in business meetings and nobody has seemed to notice.
I have also battled insomnia. In my case it was simply not being able to 'turn my mind off' at night. Again, the insomnia portion of this DVD has been able to do what before only potentially addictive medicines had done for me, calm my mind to the point of sleep.
I can't recommend this DVD enough. Thanks to Barbara for putting together such an invaluable tool for anyone suffering from stress related issues.
Versatile Effective DVD 5 out of 5
Yoga is good for various things. Increasing flexibility and developing strength for instance.
But it is also really good with helping with other things and someone who really knows yoga can put things together in a way to help with various health issues - some things have been found to help people with headaches or sleep better.
This is what this DVD does, helps relieve stress that manifests itself various ways, insomnia, headaches, lower back pain and other items which have been mentioned.
I have found it extremely good in what it does and use this often to help or maintain the benefits I have gotten so far.
