I'm a writer for Gilbert Guide (the foremost resource for everything senior care) and also a huge proponent of yoga as not only a fantastic mild fitness regime but also a wonderfully restorative exercise for the both the mind and body. The practice is especially helpful for older people, as it strengthens the body, helps relieve pain associated with achy joints, assists with blood circulation and contributes to sounder sleep. The following videos can be found on Amazon.com:

If the person to whom you give one of these videos greatly enjoys the experience of gently stretching through yoga, you may even recommend s/he tries a local yoga studio. This can be a great experience not only because of the physical benefits but also because yoga communities tend to be kind, thoughtful and welcoming. I speak from personal experience when I say that joining a yoga studio is rewarding on multiple levels.

I recently wrote a blog on this topic, which you can access at: http://www.gilbertguide.com/blog/2006/11/21/yoga-for-seniors-stretching-your-memory/

If you live in Dallas, San Francisco, the bay area or NYC, you can click on this link to find local studios that offer classes for seniors:

Whatever video you choose, I’m sure your loved one will be extremely grateful for assistance in staying active, strong and alert. I hope this information helps-
