It can be easy to believe that yoga is a practice for the young especially as the vast majority of images depicting yoga feature very youthful women engaging in impressive feats of flexibility. However, we do not need gymnastic skills, years of training and fewer than forty candles on the birthday cake to make yoga part of our lives. As a form of exercise and meditative practice, we can embrace yoga at any stage of life, and gain many benefits from doing so.

In recent years, some fantastic yoga practitioners have been working hard to gain representation and depict the true diversity of yoga. Yoga is a broad and adaptable practice that can be used by anyone (whatever their health status, body type, gender, or ethnicity), and it can be particularly helpful as we grow older.

One key factor that separates yoga from other forms of exercise is that in bringing attention to and coordinating the breath with the movement of the body, yoga is a practice in mindfulness. It holistically supports our wellbeing by promoting a mind-body connection and can help us both prevent and ease the symptoms of many common health conditions.
