Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: Arm Chair Yoga Question

Kandee, I'm not sure if this would be an option for you, but you might want to have a local yoga teacher come give your husband some private lessons geared specifically towards his abilities. Many yoga teachers offer private instruction - check your local yoga school and ask, and specify that you're looking for someone who can work with an older person in chair positions. Sometimes yoga teachers will even specialize in something like this.

You might then be able to get one of the office yoga CDs, and your husband could modify any of the poses that are too difficult with suggestions from the teacher. She should be able to work with him in person and also give him routines that he can practice on his own, maybe just using the tape as a general guideline.
