Yoga has been shown to help with balance, muscle strength, flexibility, and improving circulation.

These 10 workouts address how yoga can be used to alleviate pain and cope with various physical challenges from arthritis to heart health, back pain and diabetes.

In these exercise routines, Peggy Cappy demonstrates her signature yoga approach in a workout that anyone can do in a standing or a seated position; with or without the aid of a chair; at home; one routine or one segment at a time.

Programs include: Easy Yoga for Arthritis / Heart Healthy Yoga / Easy Yoga for Easing Pain / Back Care Basics / Easy Yoga for Diabetes / Survival Guide for Pain-Free Living / Part 1: The Basics / Part 2: Lower Body / Part 3: Upper Body / Part 4: Preventing Pain / Easy Yoga: The Secret to Strength and Balance.

If you are just starting out with yoga or rehabiliting from an injury this is the DVD for you. Peggy explains every movement before it's performed.

Overall, there are three participates - one that is always performing the movements seats, one that requires a chair for balance and one that performs the moves for the experienced yogi.

This 10-Disc DVD box-set divides itself fluidly into five sections so the user has the option to complete the entire program or pick one section; i.e. breathing, seated warm-up, etc.

Sometime, you might find one of the DVDs a little slow, but that's the point as it's geared towards people wanting to develop their strength and balance.

Indeed, throughout these wonderful DVDs, Peggy really makes us achieve much more balance - mentally and physically - in our lives. I was amazed at how I could actually attain balance in the majority of her poses the first time I did it!

I love all the programs and feel confident that I will also achieve much more strength in my body as well as balance as I work with her.

Every DVD I have purchased of hers is perfect for therapeutic as well as gentle Yoga in my life - as a 70 year old woman who's body is aging, but not defeated!

Even my regular Yoga instructor approves of her techniques so that's definitely two thumbs up for Peggy right there (do they even day that anymore, sorry?!)

Peggy's practices are so relaxing and effective. I want to be flexible and strong, without feeling like I have to stretch beyond the limits of my flexibility.

Peggy is encouraging and gives different options for your own level of flexibility. I particularly love the lying practices. I did the Lying Poses for Flexibility practice today and I feel incredibly relaxed (like I'd had an amazing massage!)

In closing, sure, I'm no spring chicken, but I'm an active person and have been doing Peggy's yoga DVDs for quite a while now and I have gained so much in my upper body strength and flexibility.

Furthermore, I am very impressed that I can get those results so quickly and so I would highly recommend this brand new box-set 'Easy Yoga For Everything With Peggy Cappy' from PBS for anyone (even if you are not a beginner, as you will gain oh-so much from these DVDs, believe me!) This is a Widescreen Presentation (1.78:1) enhanced for 16x9 TVs.
