desire to be slim, yoga's popularity with celebrities like Geri and Madonna have made people aware that it can be used for weight loss. But don't expect aerobic style yoga withYoga Conditioning for Weight Lossfrom lifestyle specialists Gaiam.Anyone new to yoga is best off starting with the extra yoga session which provides an excellent introduction to yoga from Patricia Walden. Her advice, that it is better to practise for short periods every day (instead of one hour a week), is particularly pertinent to weight loss. Regular practice changes the mind--which in turn changes the body.Suzanne Deason's specially designed session incorporates a 10-minute warm-up to loosen the muscles, a core segment which works out the muscles and creates awareness of the body and a toning, relaxing cool down. Though designed with four progressive levels of fitness, featuring four teachers practising simultaneously, following one's appropriate level can be confusing. Though stunning, the Sedona setting combined with the soft American voice, the meditative music and the slow pace is very New Age. It's a sound session, but for those fired up to lose weight it's not engaging or motivating enough. --Lorna V

Yoga conditioning for weight loss, I got this dvd from ebay for under £5.00. I truly wish that I had not of bothered.
I need to loose weight(about 4 stone-Yikes) but just cannot find the strength or energy, anyway I used to work with a woman who was into yoga and she was pencil thin. I have never wanted to be that skinny but slim would certainly be nice! So I thought if she can do it,I can do it.(how wrong was I) Apparently yoga has loads of benefits one of which is its supposed to help you naturally loose weight and keep it off.,increase your energy and stamina while balancing the mind,body and spirit.
I never had the courage to go to a yoga class I didn't like the idea of every looking at me,so I had a look around the internet and came across this DVD.
Yoga conditioning for weight loss is set in Arizona(USA) and was designed by yoga instructor Suzanne Deason,it is supposed to be a programme that suits all levels of fitness from beginner to the extreme advanced. Well I'm a beginner so in goes the DVD,I'm all ready and prepared,really looking forward to the changes that I will in time be making to my body. OMG! I have it set up on beginners level and it is still trying to kill me! You need to be very bendy and slim before you try this dvd or it might also want to kill you! It is just about impossible to get into the positions that the instructor is doing and not mention the fact of trying to balance and breath all at the same time. So out comes the dvd,back in it's box to sit on the shelf and get dusty. The dvd does have bonus material which includes help on using the dvd(but that's just to tell beginners to start at the beginning,which I had already managed to work out for myself.)
It is of course always advisable to see your doctor before taking up any kind of exercise.
Advantages: You Really do lose wieght Disadvantages: Outgrow it quickly
...This was the first yogaDVD that I ever bought. I had just finished college and after christmas time I noticed that I had a little pouch where there wasn't one before. Both of my parents are overweight and I said "no way, jose." So I purchased this
DVD and when I first started it I thought, "this seems really basic." But when I actually focused and did all the moves and held the poses as long as the instructor, I could feel a slight burn and I would break a sweat. I continued to do this almost everyday for a month and the pouch I was beginning to grow was gone. And I love listening to Suzanne Deason. She has such a gentle voice and she is not intimidating even though she is an accomplished yogi (yoga teacher). She'll give you a very brief spiel on the benefits yoga has for the body, mind, and soul.
Now I am somewhat...
