Peggy Cappy has done it again, but this time with a whole new approach to easy stretches: You don't even have to get out of bed to do them. Do these painless exercises when you wake up, or when you are ready to go to bed. They are easy and effective for balancing the muscles in the pelvis and to relieve back, hip, and knee pain. Exercises are done on the back or side, and one position is on the belly and is so comfortable you may just drift off to sleep while relieving back and leg pain from sciatica. Peggy has been teaching yoga for more than 50 years to students of all ages, 3 years to 103. A group of senior citizens is the inspiration for this book, her public television program the 5-Minute Yoga Fix, as well as the popular series Yoga for the Rest of Us
