There are a few options: a DVD and/or a book may be ideal for someone who values their own space and privacy, or has tried yoga before. A gift voucher for a yoga instructor/studio or a yoga class pass (say six visits) is a more expensive option, but can allow the person to have support and guidance from an instructor.

Reiki healing has been used for many years. It involves a Reiki practitioner who channels and manipulates healing energy. Many people have reported that Reiki healing sessions have helped them immensely in innumerous health conditions.

Giving the gift of healing is a powerful present.
