The author introduced his mother to yoga when she was in her fifties-29 years ago. Like anyone her age, she has aches and pains that come with age, but she lives with no physical restrictions and enjoys a full life at the age of 79.
She had a fall recently, fracturing her kneecap, but she thankfully bounced back fairly quickly, putting her quick recovery down to her regular chair yoga practice. The incredible benefits that yoga has brought her are evident; therefore, the author is confident about the benefits it can bring to the lives of others, too.
