Yoga
Lot of people I have talked to feel that they are too old to practice yoga. I feel you are never too old to practice. Recently I was following a discussion in a group and discuss was around a question whether Shoulder stand can be practiced by people in middle age. Different people had different opinions. Then someone presented this video link. I feel this should stop the debate.
Here are few inspirations...
1. 93 year old Ida still practices yoga actively and teaches others also. A lot of her students are in 70s and 80s.
2. A 92 year old Yoga instructor featured in CNN.

3. Swami Yogananda - 99 Year old yogi.

Hi...
Thanks for visiting my blog and finding it inspiring. Please drop your name next time. Yes there are poses which help in reducing blood pressure like Nadi Shodhan Pranayam. In general yoga practice slows down the breathing and helps you relax. This also helps in controlling blood pressure.
Warm regards
