Over 16 million Americans – and millions more around the world – practice Yoga regularly. This episode explores the benefits of maintaining a Yoga practice, its effect on longevity, and how the physical, mental, and spiritual changes that accompany this practice contribute to a healthy lifestyle. The episode will cover some of the popular reasons for practicing Yoga, including improved flexibility, muscle strength, posture, blood flow, stress reduction, and improved breathing. Our guest, Aman Keays, is a certified instructor with BKS Iyengar, who will discuss his Yoga practice and teaching, and his study of Vipassana Meditation. Importantly, we will take an in-depth look at practicing Yoga in later years, the benefits and the necessary adjustments. Our Radio show continues to take an exciting look at aging, with mainstream and alternative approaches to living to 100. Join us.
