Chair Yoga for Seniors Over 60 Made Simple by Dr. Ron Daulton, Jr.

What I especially like about this book is that it is easy to understand and follow along. There are goals to set and how to pick the right chair for you and accessories.

The workouts consist of warming up, cooling down and the exercises themselves. What I love is that the exercises are shown in pictures pointing out what your hand and legs are doing and in what directions, also  the details are written out.

Love that there are  sections for beginners and advanced classes for harder exercises.

Also love how they target different areas of your body. I'm more into the strength exercises and balance and there are some for those problems areas.

They also tell you how long the exercise will be so if you have just a few minutes don't pick the one that will take 20 minutes.

Love mindfulness at the end and help for your mental stability.

Benefits of using this book are outlined at the very beginning. Gives you advice on how to breathe also.

A KEEPER, handy for daily routines.

Balance Exercises for Seniors Made Simple: Easy 10-Minute Fall Prevention Exercise Routines to Help You Maintain Your Independence and Reduce Your Fear of Falling in Just 28 Days by Dr. Ron Daulton Jr

Love this book as a lot of it relates to me. I have the disease he mentions and I do get vertigo. It's a nightmare when they occur and he explains how to get over them and how to still be able to exercise.

What I love is that the book is easy and simple to understand. There are links to videos that show you how to do the exercises. There are simple beginner lessons, advanced and also challenges that go further.

There's a lot that comes into play when you're a senior, one over 65.  The science is explained in detail along with pictures.

Everything in your daily life plays a role  in balance: disorders, diseases, strokes, arthritis, cardio issues, medications, dehydration, nutrtion, not being active. The book has so many more listed and also solutions on how to fix all that.

The problems go on: right shoes, lighting at home, rugs, clutter, etc that also need attention.

Love the exercises themselves, easy even with weights and resistance bands to promote muscle and bone strength.  Love the energy these give me after doing them. No more naps for me.

Set your goals for daily routines,  seasonal balance challenges with solutions.

References are also included at the end along with  about the author.
