  • This is a ten minute chair yoga practice that is great for people who work at the office or are seated most of the day. You'll get a good stretch but won't work up a sweat. Hope you enjoy! As always, move within a pain-free range, and don't forget to breathe deeply!

    Thank you for this! I am a holistic chiropractor in Minnesota and I shared this on social media for my patients working from home to uplift their mood and energize their body.

    i really appreciated this -- I am so very grateful for the incredible service that you and others are doing in making yoga that is gentle enough and short enough to take away any excuse on the part of even the most devoted self-care avoidant not to do some yoga every day. You are making my life significantly better!!

    Thank you so much Candace -- this was great! I am so grateful to all who create the very short yoga routines that I can actually get myself to use, and this one is great. Because of your helping me to set a bar low and gentle enough for me to actually commit to, I am doing yoga daily for the first time, at 59!

    That was awesome! It was my first time doing chair yoga, and I loved it. I feel so relaxed right now. At peace. With me having anxiety and depression, I don't feel like this very much lol. And being 100 pounds overweight, I haven't been able to do a yoga session... or even a regular-length chair yoga. I'm so out of shape! This was so perfect for me to ease into this! My Dr wants me to start with only once a week, and I think I finally found a video I won't feel anxious about keeping up with. Thank so much

    Thank you! I'm a yoga teacher who generally has a faster paced more intensive practice. This was wonderful and just what I needed right now! Everybody can benefit from chair yoga. You will never out grow it no matter how flexible or strong you get.

    Omg I got up at 4 am to do this. I used to do yoga daily and now I’m obese and I was using this to get my fix and to be a starter back into yoga. Awesome. That holding on to the back of the chair bend omggg my back was so tight it felt so good

    This 10 minute chair video is helping to restore my flexibility and actually save my life. I am so out of shape and stressed after years of sitting a lot for my job and relative inactivity. I can see a better future and this will get me started - it is the perfect beginning.

    This session was really good for my back. I've been incorporating yoga more and more into my routine because of the benefits it has been having for my body and mind. I've weight lifted for a year and it took a really big toll on my body. Yoga has been helping me release a lot of knots, tension, and stiffness. I love it so much. Your poses suggested in this video were really nice. They gave me a good stretch. Thank you for sharing. Namaste.

    Thank you Candace, your 10 minute yoga video was very helpful for me. I'm 46 years old and have been experiencing severe tightness in my body which causes me pain in my body. My walking has been a struggle but finding your video today and walking through these steps with you for the very first time has helped me tremendously. I felt the kinks popping in my body and I feel so much better. I will be making this a daily practice for me.
    Thanks again Candace

I have rheumatoid arthritis and my rheumatologist suggested yoga. My flexibility is near to none…or was I should say until now. I feel less stressed and my body feels relaxed and less stiff. I will continue daily! I look forward to your videos! Thank you again for giving me an opportunity to regain my flexibility.
