Aging gracefully and staying healthy is a priority for many of us. In this episode, we're joined by certified yoga instructor Will Thomas, who shares his insights on the importance of stretching and strengthening as we age.

We explore breathing and stretching exercises that help listeners connect with their bodies, emphasizing the significance of focusing on how everything feels and incorporating breath into the practice. Additionally, we discuss the challenges of deep breathing and how strengthening muscles can improve lung capacity and overall health.
