You: Staying Young Workout (DVD)
$19.99
As a senior, I wasted my money on this DVD. There's a lot of rolling on the floor. I didn't need a DVD to do crunches and donkey kicks. Not appropriate for older folks.

You: Breathing Easy: Meditation and Breathing Techniques to Relax, Refresh and Revitalize
$19.95
There was too much that didn't need to be included. They should've concentrated more on the breath work. The part(s) in which they did that weren't solid either, though.

I do like the previous work of Dr's Oz & Roizen, most of it at any rate (I do think they saturate the market with too many books-one per year). I primarily liked their first couple of books ("You! Owners Manual" & "You On A Diet"). They teach some very valuable information to the public. I suppose having Oprah as a means to get the information out has helped immensely.

From a personal standpoint, I much preferred Andrew Weil's "Breathing." He does a 40-minute dissection on breath work (its roots, its benefits, how different cultures perceive and use it for health benefits, its lack of understanding/teaching by traditional docs), then he teaches you how to breath to improve health. A truly excellent audiobook.

If your goal is to improve your health through breath work, I'd go with Dr Weil's book. That's my .02.
