About the Book
Shoosh Lettick Crotzer's Yoga for Fibromyalgia is the first yoga book devoted exclusively to managing the symptoms of this arthritis-related condition. Her comprehensive program of twenty-six illustrated yoga poses, breathing techniques, and guided visualization and relaxation sessions can be practiced regardless of age or yoga experience. She teaches how to use simple props—a chair, a blanket—to modify poses to support your body and your changing needs, and suggests how to use each pose to ease the effects of daily activities, such as sitting, driving, and gardening. The poses are modeled by yoga teacher Deirdre Carrigan who has fibromyalgia.
Shoosh combines all into eight practice sessions:
- four sequences for pain relief
- one sequence to reduce fatigue and improve sleep
- three sequences for maintaining body awareness and general flexibility
The Living with Fibromyalgia section discusses lifestyle concerns, such as sleep, nutrition, exercise, and managing daily movement. Shoosh's work is grounded in compassion, offering hope for improving quality of life.
