I AM AGED 60. CAN I DO YOGA FOR 30 MINUTES A DAY. WHICH ARE BENEFICIAL POSES..

Ans: Staying young is a state of mind as well as an outcome of a healthy routine for the body - both exercise and diet. If you follow a diet suitable to your digestive system and keep physically active your body will remain healthy and hearty. If you are a beginner, then start with morning walks and gradually easy Yogasanas under a certified trainer. If you have been doing any form of exercise, you can incorporate Surya Namaskar into your routine, starting with 4-5 rounds and going up to 11 rounds daily.

Ans: Namaste! It’s inspiring that you are active at this age. Namaste 🙏🏼
You can practice basic Sukshma Kriyas on your own, but I would suggest that you do therapeutic and restorative asanas with an expert. Keep up the good work.

Ans: Yes, you can definitely practice yoga at 60, regardless of your fitness level. Yoga is adaptable for all ages and can help improve flexibility, strength, and mental well-being. It’s important to start with gentle poses, focusing on breathing and gradual movements. Poses like Tadasana (Mountain Pose), Vrikshasana (Tree Pose), and Balasana (Child's Pose) are great for beginners and help improve balance and relaxation.

Working with a yoga instructor can ensure you're doing the poses correctly and safely, especially if you have any health concerns.
