Simple Exercises and Breathing Techniques to Relieve Asthma and Respiratory Disorders.
From the bestselling author of 'Yoga In A Box' comes a comprehensive guide to understanding and managing asthma through yoga, encouraging sufferers away from exclusive reliance on drugs in favour of using the ancient wisdom of yoga to control the condition themselves through the powers of breathing and of the mind.
The number of asthma sufferers has risen sharply since the mid 1980 with Australia having one of the highest incident rates in the world. Although many people are able to control their condition with drugs, it is still a serious condition often resulting in death.
In 'Yoga Beats Asthma', qualified nurse and experienced yoga teacher Stella Weller reveals how yoga can help sufferers move away from reliance on powerful drugs for treatment. The powerful breathing techniques and exercises outlined in the book show sufferers how to support their respiratory system and help prevent, control and lessen the severity of an attack.
This essential resource is ideal for sufferers of all ages, as well as parents of asthmatic children who want to help treat the problem naturally.
