Do you really still thinking that Yoga is infeasible at your age? Take a sit and stay young! Thinking about yoga inevitably brings to mind well-trained bodies and contortionist poses, something that may have always kept you away from yoga, inevitably making you think, "No, it's not for me!" or "No, I can't! " Especially at a certain age, aches and pains affect us so much in daily life, limiting us in activities and gestures, deciding for us what we can do and what we can't, to the point that they often cause total inactivity, which is absolutely deleterious for the elderly. It's very important to keep active, and yoga is the perfect means of getting regular exercise without overexertion.
