Great yoga DVD,
By Fe (Vancouver, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Element: Yoga for Stress Relief & Flexibility (DVD)
I love Element Yoga DVDs and this quickly became one of my favorites (if not the one).As the others Element DVDs, it was filmed in a nice garden overseeing the Pacific Ocean (which I find very pleasing and relaxing). Ashley's voice is soothing and her instructions are very clear and precise - it allows me to close my eyes and tune in my breath in several poses, especially during the "Stress Relief" sequence. The DVD has 2 sequences: Stress Relief (~35 min) and Flexibility (~30 min). You can play each of them separately or the complete program. The "Flexibility" sequence consists in vinyasa techniques with hip openers, hamstring stretches, shoulder openers to increase not only flexibility in the muscles, but also in the connective tissues. The "Stress Relief" sequence focuses in breathing techniques, forward bends, and longer holds. I find this sequence lives up to its name - after practice, I'm calmer, more relaxed, and refreshed and I prefer to do it before I go to bed. Overall, it is a great addition to my Yoga practice at home and a great balance to my p90x/asylum workouts.

Excellent stretch practices.,

This review is from: Element: Yoga for Stress Relief & Flexibility (DVD)
As other revieweres have noted, these two practices (which you can view one after the other by choosing the 'complete' routine on the disc menu) are not typical yoga in that they are not about strengthening the body. They are strictly about stretching and relaxing. I found the lack of being warm a problem at first--I don't like to stretch cold--but that is really my only complaint about this DVD (other than wanting a bit more attention paid to the hip flexors--a problem area for many). Ashley does manage to get you a bit warm with eagle pose and so after the first few poses you're totally comfortable. She does some breathing and mindfulness exercises but doesn't dwell too much on them, so you get the gist about relaxing and de-stressing in your mind (as well as your body, which she stretches nice and thoroughly) without it getting preachy or new-agey. I felt very relaxed afterward. My body just felt restored. This will be a good DVD to use when you just feel wound too tight mentally or physically.

Excellent DVD,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Element: Yoga for Stress Relief & Flexibility (DVD)
Je voulais améliorer ma flexibilité et soulager des incomforts dû au faît que je travaille assise à un bureau toute la journée. Ce DVD est exactement ce dont j'avais besoin. Les bienfaits sont exactement tel que décrit : dissout les tensions, relaxe les muscles et l'esprit et augmente la flexibilité.
