Yoga Foundations Product Review and GiveawaySince the onset of my illness, I have tried many alternative healing techniques including yoga, meditation, acupuncture etc. Most have fallen to the wayside for various reasons, either they were not effective or I found it difficult to keep up with the routine because of my illness. But I found both Yoga and meditation to be highly effective and have missed having them as part of my routine, so when Hillary Rubin contacted me in regards to reviewing her Yoga Foundations DVD I was quite excited. What's the Product?
First Impressions I was looking forward to bringing Yoga back into my life. It has been about a year since the last time I did Yoga and I think that my health has suffered since letting it go. Hillary's experience immediately resonated with me, she was diagnosed with M.S. in 1996 and credits Yoga with her recovery and maintaining her health. I was also diagnosed with a neurological disorder in 2000, so I can relate to her experience as well as her desire to find a healthy alternative to medications. I am really excited about adding this to my weekly routine. How I used it
The DVD starts with various options. The main menu gives you three: to play the class, play bonus selections or meet Hillary and her students. I selected play the class. You are once again directed to a menu with additional options. The first option allows you to start the full class with or without music. The second option allows you to start the full class with an explanation of each pose and choose to have it with music or without. I chose to start the full class with an explanation of each pose and I chose to have it without music. I found the class to be quite challenging certainly not because the 'class was challenging' but because my current health issues made it quite difficult. I can say that I found the instructions and demonstrations of the poses to be quite helpful and, overall, I thought the class was well run. I persevered, but found that it was beyond my current physical level of capabilities. I decided to go back to the menu and see if I could locate the 'chair yoga' that Hillary mentioned in the class. It was listed on the main menu under Bonus Selections. Under this selection, you were given three options - pose demonstrations, chair yoga and heal with natural breath. I tried the chair yoga first and was quite impressed with both the instructions and techniques. I would definitely recommend this class for beginners. Actually, I watched all three sections in the bonus selections and found all three to be incredibly helpful and would suggest that anyone new to Yoga or just getting back into Yoga view the chair yoga, pose demonstrations and heal with natural breath prior to starting the class. I would say that each of these instructions combined provide for an excellent foundation to Yoga. Hillary did a fantastic job of explaining each pose and breath as well as providing you with a solid understanding of why each is important to your overall well-being. Overall I would definitely recommend this DVD to anyone interested in trying Yoga for the first time or just getting back into it, but start with the bonus selections since it will make your experience much easier and more enjoyable. How does Mother Earth feel about this product? Mother Earth loves any product that encourages inner-growth and health. Although I don't think she is a big fan of the product packaging. When someone comes out with an eco-friendly way to distribute DVDs I hope Hillary jumps on the band wagon. Is it a Healthy Product? Absolutely. Hillary Rubin shows you a concrete path to creating a healthier lifestyle and healing your body. How does this product impact my wallet? The Yoga Foundation's DVD is comparable to other Yoga DVD's, but is worth the investment to find something that can provide you with a step-by-step path to creating a healthier you. Would I recommend this product to a friend? Absolutely, especially if they are interested in Yoga or finding an alternative to their current health regimen. Bottom Line:
4 stars. Hillary gives you an excellent introduction into Yoga without, as she states, "ever doing a single 'pretzel' pose."

The first thing I did was simply sit back and watch the DVD. I often find that due to my lack of coordination I tend not to follow classes very well and get lost easily.
