Hoboken, NJ (August 4, 2020) – Yoga After 50 For Dummies, written by Larry Payne, PhD, founding president of the International Association of Yoga Therapists, takes the guesswork out of starting or continuing yoga at 50 and beyond. Step by step, pose by pose, AARP’s newest For Dummies title shows how to adapt stances and breathing to your changing body in order to reap the benefits of this ancient practice, as well as how to use yoga to calm the mind and body.
