• Yoga Workout - Beginner's and Intermediate Levels - Stephanie Foster | DVD | (27/12/2000) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £15.99

  If you are interested in experimenting with yoga but find the idea a bit intimidating, Stephanie Foster's Yoga: Beginners Level is an excellent starting point. While she emphasises that her tape is not a replacement for a class, it's still a comfortable way to familiarise yourself with many of the positions, which you can use without the video to stretch and relax. The first half of the beginners' portion of the tape defines the poses, with two students demonstrating each posture as Foster explains the movements; one student demonstrates the full position while the other shows how it may be performed while seated or using a wall for support for those who aren't yet supple enough for the full pose. The rest of the beginners' section uses the postures in a moving sequence, stretching and working each part of the body. Hatha yoga can be a wonderful tool for improving posture, increasing flexibility and enhancing relaxation. Foster recommends viewing the entire tape at least once before attempting the poses. This tape is a nice respite from a hectic day, and many of the movements, once mastered, can be discreetly performed while sitting at your desk. --Jenny Brown, Amazon.com

  After an ecstatsy induced car accident 12 year old Lizzie lies dead on the roadside - slowly she is taken into the light - but is pulled back to earth when she is revived by the doctors. Lizzie feels sure that during the 184 seconds that she lay dead something latched on to her and came back into her world. The nightmares and visions that follow only crystalise her belief that she should have died in the crash... Then the disturbances start at first merely tappings and bad smells - but soon the activity escalates. Lizzie seems to be the focus but according to others she's just playing games for attention. Only when Kate her mother is confronted with inexplicable events does she face the possibility that they may be the victims of a poltergeist infestation.
