Yoga is for anybody and every body…old or young, flexible or stiff, thin or not so thin. It can be practiced for a lifetime, with the right approach. Our population is aging, and it is more important than ever to find a safe physical practice to preserve our healthiest bodies and brains. That is why I offer gentle, yet appropriately challenging yoga classes. As a yoga teacher, health coach, and retired doctor, my experience and evidence-based approach is perfect for aging bodies. The most rewarding moments come with the smile on a student's face who leaves class pain free and energetic - having doubted she could do yoga.

 The YOGI M.D. Podcast empowers the mature woman to make her health a priority in order to thrive in all the stages of her life. Defining health cannot be constrained by the simplistic formula of diet and exercise alone. That’s why we interview experts, to expand her definition of health to include physical, mental, emotional, social, intellectual, and spiritual well being. That’s why we talk to inspiring men and women who share the lessons they’ve embraced on their journeys to holistic health. That’s why we bring you “The Mindful Minute”, episodes with practical tips to make each day healthier than the last.
