TV asks: “Just need a quick yes or no. Have been following your new age practices series. Was doing “Catholic” yoga. . . stopped that, got cleansed, but how about Somatic Exercises? They do have a “cat stretch” routine that doesn’t resemble yoga at all that I can see. But want to know before I start. I need something slow and gentle for health reasons.”

The Feldenkrais Method
CF writes: “I live in an over 55 community that is constantly promoting yoga and other ‘fitness’ programs. The newest program being offered to the seniors is the Feldenkrais Method . . . Are you familiar with this method of fitness? Is this another ‘New Age’ type program? I looked on the website and it sure looks like one to me. What concerns me the most is that no “religious” activities are allowed at the Club House, no services or Bible studies, yet they offer several of these “yoga” type programs. Would you be so kind as to help me address this?”
