Yoga Blocks





I love these yoga blocks from Veda as well as the strap that comes with it. Yoga should never hurt and never force your body into a position that hurts. With these blocks and strap you can get your body into those harder poses slowly and in the right way so you don't hurt your body.

Great for when you want to reach the next level or do some poses you might not be able to obtain without either of these. Very easy to use. Search on the web and you can find out how to implement these into your yoga routine.

The Veda Yoga Blocks can be found on Amazon.


What Veda has to say about their prduct.

Reach your goals faster with this set of yoga blocks and strap
Blocks and straps are essential tools in yoga, especially in the beginning if you're not so flexible. The blocks and strap enable you to reach deeper into your positions and complete yoga poses previously unattainable. Don't strain your body into bad positions, keep good form by using the blocks and strap to perform the exercises safely and correctly and work towards your goals.
High density durable foam
The Veda yoga blocks are made of EVA foam, which is extremely lightweight yet incredibly firm giving you great balance and a lifetime of yoga use. Made to the studio standard size of 9" x 6" x 4" these are the only blocks you will ever need. Reach deeper into your poses with correct form and alignment with support from the Veda yoga blocks.
Yoga strap included - extend your reach!
Modify your pose and practice correct form by using our included yoga strap. When you're struggling to reach your feet or grasp hands in certain poses a strap enables you to bridge the gap and work on your flexibility over time. Enabling you to join in on any yoga position, no matter how difficult, the strap makes it possible.
Veda yoga straps are made of premium non-stretch cotton twill which is both durable and soft to skin. The metal D-ring buckle enables you to easily tighten and release the strap. Works well even in hot sweaty conditions.
Money Back Guarantee
If for any reason you are not 100% satisfied, please return your Veda Yoga hand towel within 30 days for a no-questions asked, full refund.

DanceCrazy Stretching Strap & Exercise DVD



Stretching is so important. I have always tried to stretch everyday. You know that one good stretch that just makes you feel good all day long? Yes that is the stretch I am talking about. This kind of stretching is a bit different but great for those who do yoga, pilates, or any other exercise where stretching is a must. I love that this takes you from the beginning, so if you are new to stretching with or without a strap this is a great DVD to start with.

DanceCrazy is one of my favorite companies to find dance video how to's, exercise equipment, as well as some awesome food choices.

The  DanceCrazy Stretching Strap & Exercise DVD can be found on Amazon.


What DanceCrazy has to say about their product.

This is a DVD - there is NO exercise strap/band included.

This is DanceCrazy's DVD on using stretching straps and bands to get the most out of them. It's a great beginner's workout, and if you have a stretching strap, this is for you!

We think you'll love this thoughtfully created step by step beginner's DVD to stretching (and using stretch bands and straps).

Stretching to be more Flexible










I have been doing Yoga on and off for many years. Yesterday I had an appointment with the disability Dr. and boy did I learn just how un flexible I really am.

Years of not doing Yoga regularly on top of having Fibromyalgia has not been good to my body, so I am going to try and get into doing Yoga on a daily basis.

I now know where I need to work on. Lets just say I didn't walk away from the appointment feeling very good about myself but I guess it is good for disability case. This Yoga Stretching strap is really going to help me achieve results. They might not be as good as I once was but will bring me closer to being able to move more easily.

Lets just say after doing what he wanted me to do, I was worn out, tired, and in severe pain. So here to more stretching, and flexibility in the future for better health.

Need a little extra help touching your toes?























Even at my size I have always been able to touch my toes except for when I was  pregnant. I recently found out that most of my children could not touch their toes. Crazy right. I thought the school had them stretching and exercising. It does show you that you can not assume the school is doing their job keeping your children healthy when they are away from home.

I know that touching your toes does not mean you are healthy but it does mean you have flexibility. All of my children could touch their toes before they went to school. So to remedy the situation I have had them working on stretching touching their toes and even having them do some yoga which they enjoy.

With having Fibromyalgia I can't quite stretch and bend like I used to from the mere fat that has built up on my body, but I can still touch my toes, and almost do a split (the fat on my thighs would probably bust open if I pushed my body all the way to the limit) which is quite amazing in itself.

Childbirth is easier with the more flexibility you have. Stretching is so very important to both health and mind. I usually stretch after I am done meditating which feels great.

I really like how this strap can be made to help people like me stretch just a bit further as well as helping get into yoga moves you just want to get a little closer to the correct pose. Do take caution and never over stretch. Stretch a little more each day if you are not already stretching everyday so that you do not have muscle strain or hurt your body in any way.

You can purchase the DanceCrazy Ultra Stretch Strep on Amazon.

What DanceCrazy has to say about their product.
The DanceCrazy Ultra Stretch Strap!
Simple, yet extremely helpful in stretching.

Brand New from DanceCrazy, an aid in stretching muscles before or after a workout. Great product for people who have always found stretching unassisted to be difficult. Allows you to finally get a good stretch on your own!

NeeBooFit Resistance Loop Bands 6 Piece Set







My husband had to go for rehabilitation for his leg injury and it was one of the first time we were introduced to resistance bands. My husbands was a lot longer then the NeeBooFit Resistance Loop Bands 6 Piece Set because it was to exercise his whole leg and knee area, but for the most part was as thin as the medium resistance band in the NeeBooFit Resistance Loop Bands 6 Piece Set .

I was more used to seeing the kind that are like a bungee cord instead of flat like the NeeBooFit set. I want to increase my stretching ability while building on my work out at my own pace. Resistance bands help me to achieve this. Depending on how my Fibromyalgia is from day to day I might need to go to a less resistance band for a few days and then go up on my good days. 

I really love these for yoga poses as well. Even my children are into these bands. They want to learn more about them and what exercises they can do with them. What I like most is that they want to do it themselves I don't have to ask them or remind them to do something active they just grab them and put them to use.

My favorite part is that when we are all done using them they go right into their own bag for storage.

You can purchase the NeeBooFit Resistance Loop Bands 6 Piece Set on Amazon.
