Product Description:
Amazon.com:
Yoga instructor Barbara Benagh has practiced and taught yoga for nearly 35 years. She discovered yoga while living in England and began teaching there. She moved to Boston and opened The Yoga Studio on Beacon Hill in 1980.
In addition to her local classes Barbara teaches yoga seminars throughout the US and internationally. She is a regular contributor of articles to Yoga Journal magazine. She has several audio CDs of live classes available as well as DVDs, the latest being Yoga for Beginners released by Body + Soul magazine, and Yoga for Stress Relief that includes a discussion on meditation from the Dalai Lama.
Barbara was kind enough to answer some questions from Amazon.com about this unique line of yoga DVDs.
How are these DVDs different from other yoga DVDs?
I was drawn to working with Bodywisdommedia because they produce DVDs they are interactive. Rather than a 'one size fits all' single routine that is typical of most products, these DVDs offer choice, allowing the user to customize and change their yoga practice to suit their needs. No two persons are the same so the ability to change your practice - easing shoulder tension one day and an invigorating morning wake up the next - come as close as possible to allowing you to address your individual needs at home. Not only do people have different physical needs, but they have different time constraints as well. If you have only 20 minutes, there is a practice for you but there are longer practices as well (some as long as 90 minutes) that address the total body/mind connection. The sheer number of yoga sequences offered on each of these DVDs is a first. They are incredibly comprehensive.
How were you able to get the Dalai Lama involved?
This project dovetailed perfectly with the Dalai Lama's message that modern stress is one of the greatest obstacles to our mental happiness and physical wellbeing. Because we are long-time sincere practitioners, having a 30-minute lecture of the Dalai Lama teaching how to meditate on the Yoga for Stress Relief DVD was a perfect fit. Bodywisdommedia also has a broader relationship with the Office of Tibet and are releasing historic lectures with 'A Path to Happiness' being the first one.
How will potential buyers of these DVDs know which one is right for them?
The titles are very indicative of what appears on the DVD and therefore a good guide. I really enjoyed making Yoga for Stress Relief because it is incredibly relevant. We strove to make the sequences accessible to as many people as possible, whether they are a beginner or long time practitioner. Yoga for Beginners is a great, non-threatening place to get started and includes lots of sound technique developed over my 30 years as a yoga teacher. Power Yoga for Every Body is a bit more challenging taking you from the beginning level and gradually progressing to much more demanding routines.

I bought another DVD from this teacher, which I loved and gave to everyone last year as a gift. I checked out this stress relief DVD (and who doesn't need this now??) and love it - I will be getting this one for a lot of people this year. It is a great DVD with tons of great routines on it.

The best thing about this DVD is that it actually takes poses that are easy to accomplish, and lets you hold them for long periods of time. no sun salutations, no flow, just great stretchy poses and a lot of relaxation. I love this one - especially the lower back relief practice. After doing it 3 times a week for about 2 weeks, I am noticeably more flexible through the hamstrings, and always feel great after doing even a short "workout" from this DVD.
I have lower back problems, which ... Read More

Barbara is great in teaching how to reduce stress using yoga and how to use yoga to relieve physical issues. The DVD is orgaanized well so you can find what you need to do.
The breathing exercises are wonderful, very relaxing as you work on proper breathing and the lower back relief works well for me also. All in all a very good selection of routines to help with what ails you with excellant instruction on how to do the poses.

My stress reliever the first 3 years of college was a few drinks and adding in a party on the weekends. That wasn't working. My mom got me hooked on yoga this summer and sent me back to school with a few choice DVDs. Yoga for Stress Relief is my new favorite. Anyone who has way too much going on and under pressure to get it done and do it well can relate to insomnia, digestive issues and general fatigue. Getting this DVD has helped alot this semester.

This DVD actually works. I love the fact that there are multiple workouts to choose from, and each one has a specific purpose. There are workouts to help alleviate back pain, migraines, stress, neck pain and more. I have suffered from chronic neck pain for years, and this DVD includes workouts that truly help alleviate my discomfort. In addition, this DVD includes routines for general workouts. Whether you have 15 minutes or an hour, you will find a program to fit your needs. Great buy!
