Yoga playlist

What are five simple exercises to do at home?

View all responses

I’ve been going to PT and doing exercises for my foot problem (plantar fasciitis) for many months now. I think my heel might finally be feeling better. I’ve walked 1-2 miles a couple of times recently and it seemed OK. Here’s hoping I can get back to walking 3 miles daily soon—before the dreaded snow comes. This is prime walking season in Massachusetts. 👟🍁

In addition, I do a daily exercise to help prevent vertigo.

Finally, I do a bit of yoga most days. I have three 15-minute yoga videos in a playlist on YouTube that I do in rotation (one per day). These videos are the correct level of difficulty for me. (I’m not a Warrior 3 kinda gal.) The three videos together cover my five top stretches:

  1. downward dog
  2. seated twists to the right and left
  3. warrior 1 & 2
  4. forward fold
  5. child’s pose
Warrior 3 is no bueno for me

I’ve tried this last video a few times and it’s a bit too advanced for me, but I really like this instructor. I may try to work my way up to it this winter.

    1. I’m grateful my neighbor dragged me to a yoga class about 10 years ago and I liked it. I’ve seen “chair yoga” offered in several different settings including in our senior center.

  4. Ty Mary! I’m making a desktop link to this page so I can try some of these soon. I’m determined for 2027 (approaching fast!) to be a much more physical year.

  5. Thank you for sharing. 🙏. I try and exercise regularly but the last 8 weeks or so have been hard with various ailments requiring antibiotics but I’m determined to get back into both aqua classes, some form of yoga or pilates plus daily walking 😊
