Please put this stress-busting program back on the market!
Raquel's mind & body program was suggested to me when I participated in a Yoga program with an Indian instructor in Beverly Hills in the early 80's after revealing that I could no longer afford the expensive classes every day. I purchased it and picked up right where I left off in the other program! I loved the peaceful setting, the intensity (from beginning level to advanced), and it's stress-reducing, habit forming benefits. I had it on video, but the tape broke. PLEEEEEEZ put this product back on the market!

Relieve the body stress, relax the mind!
All the ingredients are here for a pleasant physical and emotional experience: a stunningly attractive movie star with the proverbial "perfect" body, topped off with a senuous voice to guide us through an exercise and breathing technique to improve the mind and body. Thus, this 1989 videotape "Mind and Body".

Superstar Raquel Welch has teamed with consultant, Dr. Joan Borysenko, Ph.D. and author of a book "Minding the Body, Mending the Mind" Dr. Borysenko is a specialist in the field of stress control techniques. Stress is defined as a feeling that we are being threatened either in body or in mind. She adds that we feel helpless to control the stress, therefore, the body goes thru body changes, hormonal, chronic and muscle, level of corticosteroids goes up, susceptibility to diseases, colds flue, etc. And, with relaxation techniques provided here, you can improve immuno function.

A concept of the Mind and Body is to relieve stress in the body by relaxing tensions in the mind. The two interact and they are deeply connected. The key to this technique is "breathing". Raquel instructs on how to breathe abdominally. The segments in this video include: an approximately 20 minute introduction to educate and prepare you for what is in store. Practice is essential.

Part One is appropriately called "The Body" as Raquel Welch demonstrates stretching that his based on her yoga techniques (another popular videotape also.) Cleverly, the stretches are named after animals, like the cat pose - on all fours and stretching that arched back. Or, she named the cobra pose - on the floor facing down and slowly lifting high, the upper torso.

Part Two is "The Mind" and Raquel will teach mental techniques, massage the face muscles, stretching, releasing the tension, meditating.

An important element in making an exercise videotape is the ambiance. Here, Raquel uses a chair or mat. The background is pleasing to the eyes, and the music is so soft yet soothing. You won't see Raquel in a bathing suit like her other video on yoga, but she wears an attractive peach/melon pant and top, or she does change to shorts (eeek! are those nylons underneath?)

Educating experience, physically and emotionally.......MzRizz.
