Yoga
The goal of calming and relaxation exercises is to help change the way you perceive a situation and react to it — to help you feel more in control, more confident or secure, and to activate healing processes within the body. Give yoga a try!

Yoga - Come As You Are
Yoga can strengthen the key muscles that help with better balance and teach us how to keep a calm focus when we experience life’s challenges, according to Judi Bar, Yoga Program Manager at Cleveland Clinic. Judi will introduce you to yoga and take you through a variety of poses in these videos.
This yoga DVD is in the style of “Come as You Are” yoga – it is easy to do anywhere, at any time, and is designed for all fitness levels. Start with one simple yoga move daily for the first week. In week 2, watch the DVD and try to do a few stretches or yoga postures each day. Build up to doing the whole DVD by week 3 or 4. A regular yoga practice will increase flexibility, strength, and balance. It will also help you to feel more balanced and relaxed.

Relieve, Relax, Recharge
Meditation
Boost your physical and emotional success by embracing stillness and cultivating your inner calm. Building in 10 minutes of meditation each day can help make you train your mind and body to relax and focus.
Research tells us that meditation also can help reduce stress and pain. Overall, it helps you become more centered and grounded, which helps minimize the negative effects of everyday frustrations — like traffic jams or cranky kids.
It also lets you focus on what you’re doing in the moment and not on the distractions you faced that morning or anticipate facing later on. That focus helps make workouts and activities more productive in the limited time available.
Meditation doesn’t magically make life easier or better. But it can help you better cope with what life throws your way and concentrate on the things that are meaningful to you.
