Gentle Yoga Practice for Breast Cancer Patients
This video is a short, gentle yoga practice that has been created by Mass General Cancer Center breast cancer care providers and instructed by Luba Zagachin, Mass General Cancer Center yoga instructor. The movements in the video are similar to those recommended after surgery for breast cancer, and may address some of the discomforts related to treatment. However, as is typical of any yoga practice, the linking of the movements to a steady smooth breath is the main focus. At the end of the practice, there will be a short rest, called "savasana" at which time you can sit in a chair or lie down. Make sure not to skip this part, before moving on with your day. Namaste.
