Product Description

Yoga for Strength, Yoga for Flexibility. Yoga to become the Perfect Meditator. These are all worthwhile goals, but somehow they all seem to involve a struggle for things that are always in the future. But Happiness- that luminous and joyous state of rapture is our natural state! It's with us all the time, underlying all we do. Yoga for Happiness is a celebration of this fact!

The routines are accessible to a wide range of ability levels. The yogis demonstrate two or three different options for every pose so you can practice at a level that is suited to the unique being that you are. Whether you have done yoga once or one thousand times, you will dramatically improve your fitness, increase flexibility, feel more vital and develop a deep-seated sense of contentment.

As with any yoga practice the emphasis is not so much on what you do, but how you do it. Have fun with this DVD. Let it make you feel your best. When you feel your best, it is so easy to give to others.

Customer Reviews

Love this Yoga practice
I bought this DVD reluctantly, thinking I'd watch it a couple times. I fell in love with it. I've made so much progress, I'm now doing the advanced poses. I am definitely more flexible and have gained strength. Each time I do it, I get better and learn/feel something new. Some days I do the quickie 30 minute practice and then other days when I have more time, I do one of the longer sessions. At first I though the commentary was kind of cheesy but to be honest, I really enjoy the cheesiness...it makes me feel calm, happy and relaxed. I would highly recommend this video.

love it
Love this dvd compilation. Several options to choose from, 2 disks so that's great especially for those days where you don't have much time, but still want to get something in to ease your mind. I love the setting (in beautiful BC in a lush green park), and the background music works perfectly (not annoying)... the participants on screen are all at different levels, which is pretty cool to see (if you're watching the screen)! Made my husband feel good about himself when he tried it, seeing that he was better than the one guy who has (very little) flexibility!!!

Eoin has a quirky sense of humor, but I think that's his appeal.. ya sure, maybe it's a little cheesy, but it perks me up and his voice is relaxing. This is 'power yoga' so the Vinyasa style is quick- I think it's wise for beginners (or anyone) to watch the dvd once over before doing the workout anyway. Definitely does the trick, calms the mind and tones the body as well. My favorite workout is 'Strong Free & Happy'- challenging, and just the right length of time (53min). 'Full Happiness' is awesome too, but I don't always have 80min as the mom of a rambunctious toddler! The 'quickie' is great too when I just want to get some yoga happiness into a busy day, even if it's not very long (30 min).

If you do the 'Full Happiness' workout, you will be exposed to all of the key postures, and there will be no surprises when you try the other workout options. I guess that could be a criticism since all the workouts are essentially the same one, broken down into different length segments (same voice-over, same cueing, same background music). That doesn't bother me however, because I like the familiarity and find the combination right on the way it is.

All this to say that it is wonderful. I highly recommend it to anyone!

Good workouts - he's a bit flakey, funny!
I like the workouts and feel good doing this workout - however Finn is a bit of a hippy, flaky, peace, love, and all that instructor. I wish he would talk less about loving and more about form and what muscles you are working - More fitness less philosophy. Once you get past his quirky personality it is a great workout and I do the tape frequently, not sure that i will buy more though.
