Summary

Dahn Yoga for MS is an instructional DVD designed to help MS patients gain energy and reduce the symptoms of MS with simple exercises and gentle workouts. But Dahn Yoga for MS doesn't just focus only on the physical; it also teaches MS patients how to reduce their stress and how to gain mental focus, both of which are pivotal to fighting the effects of MS.The DVD was inspired by Cathy Downie, who began taking Dahn Yoga in 2005 and quickly discovered its healing effects as her MS symptoms, including fatigue and pain, began to lessen considerably. Working with both the MS Society and the Dahn Foundation, she began teaching Dahn Yoga classes to MS patients, which eventually culminated in her helping to develop the instructional DVD Dahn Yoga for MS.Dahn Yoga for MS is a step-by-step program, primarily taught by certified Dahn Yoga instructor Dawn Quaresima, which features interviews with MS patients who have practiced Dahn Yoga. In addition to the basics of Dahn Yoga, viewers will learn how to utilize sitting, standing, and floor positions, how to gain energy through simple breathing techniques, and how to quiet the mind for meditation.
