Yoga Link: Harmonizing the Hips, Shoulders and Core 3-DVD Set



very helpful
I found these DVDs to be very helpful for my shoulders & hips. I have not done the core DVD yet but judging by they others I'm sure it will be awesome. Been trying to do the shoulders on 2x a week as is suggested by Miller. Seems to be keeping my shoulders more in place than they have been. Chiropractor said they are better in alignment. I would def recommend these for people willing to put in the work for self healing.

I adore Jill Miller.
I am a yoga instructor and adore JM. Though there are a couple moves I neither do, nor will I teach from this series. I find that they could compromise existing injuries. That said; if you are tuned in, your body will tell you "nope", bad idea, if you approach this slowly (use the pause button if necessary). However; that being said, most of the poses are innovative and enlightening. Focusing on new things about disconnected places within. As for the aforementioned "too much" poses, most normal range of motion people won't even come close to the danger zone of injury (if it doesnt exist prior), their range of motion won't allow for extremity. As always, having a professional to ask regarding your own individual needs is wonderful (even if you yourself are a pro!), outside perspective is great-and a necessity from time to time. In lue of that, go gently, and, if you are ready for the next intermediate to advanced step in your own work out, check out everything JM...

Great restorative DVD's - wish they were a little shorter
First - let me state that these are wonderful restorative DVD's for rehabing injuries. I find when I do them, my shoulder and hip injuries feel tremendously better in a short amount of time. I like the core DVD as well - I have no issues there, and it seems to be a good workout. All of these DVD's are about an hour in length, and come with an instructional section as well, which is even longer. You'll want to do that first a couple of times to learn the exercises and about what muscles you are using.

I typically workout first thing in the mornings, and was trying to do these afterwork when my shoulder and hip throbbed after sitting at a desk all day. It's really hard to fit in an hour after work to get all this in. Additionally, it's suggested that you do the hip DVD 5 times weekly, the shoulder 3-5 times weekly, and the core 3-5 times weekly. I'd pretty much have to give up my regular workout routine to fit all this in.

Now, if there were someway of combining...
