Hatha yoga adherents focus on struggles between opposing energies: hot versus cold, yin versus yang, and positive versus negative. Many baby boomers would add middle age versus gravity to their own list of forces which-while not exactly opposed-definitely don't seem to get along quite as well as they used to. Twisting into a triple inverted pretzel and walking up a wall with legs pulled over your head may have been easy enough in your protest days, but the golden years call for a kinder, gentler breed of Eastern exercise. But can you ease up on the routine, yet still retain the spiritual and mental focus derived from other styles? Does a guru sit in the woods when he goes camping? Of course!
