Yoga is one of the most beneficial complementary therapies for Parkinson's disease (PD), helping to increase flexibility, correct posture, loosen tight, painful muscles, build confidence, and in general, enhance the quality of life.

Peggy van Hulsteyn has experienced these benefits first-hand as a yoga practitioner for over four decades who was diagnosed with PD twelve years ago.

In Yoga and Parkinson's Disease, written with two certified yoga teachers, van Hulsteyn provides an accessible, easy-to-follow, and encouraging guide for bringing the benefits of yoga into your life, even if you've never done yoga before.

Yoga and Parkinson's Disease includes: Practical information about clothing, mats, preparing a space, and equipment.

Step-by-step instructions for those with limited mobility or unsteadiness.

Postures that can be done in bed to help you start your day.

Variations to ensure comfort and safety. Tips for making practice easy, approachable, and sustainable.
