Do you think you are too old to practice yoga? Are you
scared that it is too difficult? Not if you practice with Vasanthi Bhat.
Her style is simple, yet powerful, and suitable to all age groups including
seniors ages 80 years and over.
"During my short trip to USA, in the year 1991, my daughter and son-in-law
found that as I was breathing it was laborious and I was asked to get myself
checked for any heart problem. Upon return to India in 1992, I had my stress
test done and everything was normal.
In 1993, while going for my usual walk, I experienced some discomfort and
sweating, so I stopped for a while and thereafter completed my walk. I had my
stress test again. My cardiologist found angina and prescribed some
medicines.
In 1995, I came to USA, and had my stress test at Kaiser Hospital and they
confirmed the symptom of angina and advised to continue the medication.
Being interested in Naturopathy, I joined yoga classes conducted by Vasanthi
Bhat at the Indo American Community Service Center (ICSC), Santa Clara,
California.
After two years of regular yoga practice, I had my stress test at Valley
Medical Centre. This time, I was found to be normal and no sign of angina was
detected. So I believe yoga had it's effect and healed me of my angina
problem and I still continue doing yoga regularly.
My present age is 81 years and walk everyday about three to four miles which
helps me keep fit."
