A Woman Discovers the Benefits of Yoga
A middle-aged woman writes about how yoga changed her body and her mind in this great article.

I stand taller and hold my shoulders up and back instead of slumping down and inward. My step is lighter, and my "core" abdominal muscles -- though still lined with a fair share of chub -- are damned strong.
