Anywhere, Anytime, Any Body Yoga by Emily Slonina
Anywhere, Anytime, Any Body Yoga is for anyone who is interested in improving their health and flexibility but does not have the time or money to visit a yoga studio or cannot sit on the floor or twist like a pretzel.

The postures work out every part of the body, and the book also features exercises that can be done in comfortable positions with many simpler alternatives.postures can be done anywhere the reader desires, be it standing in lines, in waiting rooms, even while watching TV.
The exercises in this book help relieve commuter stress, keep your body flexible, and prevent blood clots, jet lag and anxiety. An example of the breadth of the audience for this book and the many ways it can benefit readers is exhibited by the numerous poses for individuals with limited mobility; people in wheelchairs, or those with injuries or weight problems. Everyone can all improve their strength and well-being by learning and practicing chair sun and moon salutations — which are fully explained and illustrated in this inspiring guide.
