Savvy Senior: Chair Yoga: Safe, Simple, and Beneficial for Older Adults
By Jim Miller
Dear Savvy Senior,
I’ve been hearing a lot about chair yoga lately. My New Year’s resolution is to improve my health and get moving again, but I have trouble getting down on the floor. What can you tell me about this type of yoga?
—Arthritic Abby
Dear Abby,
If you’re looking for a safe way to get active again but find traditional exercise routines difficult, chair yoga may be the perfect fit.
Chair yoga is a gentle form of yoga that’s done either sitting on a chair or using the chair for support while standing. It adapts traditional yoga poses so they’re accessible to people who may have limited mobility, balance issues, or difficulty getting down on the floor.
This practice helps improve flexibility, strength, and balance, boosts circulation and mobility, and promotes relaxation while reducing stress. This makes it an effective and safe way to stay active and support overall well-being at any age.
A typical chair yoga session begins with simple seated postures, such as gentle twists, stretches for the arms and legs, or movements that open the hips and shoulders. These exercises loosen stiff joints, improve posture, and increase flexibility in areas of the body that often become tight with age.
It can also include standing poses like modified lunges or gentle balance work,
BLOOD DONATION
From page 1
Red blood cells can be stored for about 42 days, while platelets, which are critical for cancer patients, last only five days. When donation opportunities are lost in large numbers, especially during December, inventories can take weeks to recover.
FLOODING TURNS A SEASONAL DIP INTO AN EMERGENCY
This winter’s flooding has turned what is normally a seasonal dip into an emergency situation. Road closures, evacuations, and unsafe travel conditions have prevented donors from reaching donation centers and forced Bloodworks Northwest to cancel blood drives outright.
The impact is especially severe for Type O negative blood, which is considered the universal blood type and is often used in emergencies when a patient’s blood type is unknown. Emergency low levels of O negative blood can limit hospitals’ ability to respond quickly to trauma cases.
Flooding can also increase demand. Weatherrelated accidents, cleanup injuries, and evacuationrelated incidents can all lead to a greater need for transfusions, placing additional pressure on already limited supplies.

with the chair always nearby for stability. Breathing exercises are often incorporated throughout the practice, encouraging participants to slow down, deepen their breath, and cultivate a sense of calm. Sessions usually end with a short period of guided relaxation or meditation, leaving participants refreshed and grounded.
TO GET STARTED
HOW
To get started, you just need a sturdy chair without wheels and preferably without arms, and some comfortable clothes. The goal with chair yoga is to stretch, not cause pain. So go only as far as feels comfortable and don’t push beyond your limits.
SEATTLE-AREA HOSPI
TALS FEEL THE RIPPLE EFFECTS
Hospitals throughout Seattle and King County rely on Bloodworks Northwest to manage blood supply logistics and ensure blood is available when needed. When inventories drop, hospitals may be forced to delay non-emergency procedures or carefully prioritize limited supplies for the most critical cases. While patients may never see these behindthe-scenes decisions, the availability of blood directly affects patient outcomes. Maintaining a stable supply depends on donors across the region stepping forward, particularly after disruptions like flooding.
Bloodworks Northwest notes that community response after emergencies is often strong, but timing matters. Donations are needed as soon as conditions allow, not weeks later.
SAFETY COMES FIRST
Bloodworks Northwest emphasizes that donor safety remains the top priority. Residents should not attempt to travel through flooded areas or unsafe road conditions to donate. Appointments can be rescheduled, and donation centers adjust operations based on access and weather conditions.
Once roads are clear and travel is safe,
donating as soon as possible helps stabilize inventories and prevent further shortages.
HOW QUEEN ANNE AND MAGNOLIA RESIDENTS CAN HELP
Bloodworks Northwest says donors of all blood types are urgently needed to keep hospitals stocked with blood for cancer patients, trauma cases, and premature babies across the region.
Community members who are healthy and able to safely reach a donor center or blood drive are encouraged to make an appointment as soon as possible. Same-day appointments are often available.
Residents can schedule a donation by visiting bloodworksnw.org or by calling 800-398-7888. Appointments can also be made by texting BWAPP to 999-777 to download the Bloodworks app and book directly.
Those whose appointments were canceled due to flooding are encouraged to reschedule once conditions improve. Even one donation can help save up to three lives, making blood donation one of the most direct ways Queen Anne and Magnolia residents can support the broader community during the busy holiday season and ongoing flood recovery.
If possible, consider joining a local chair yoga class. Many local senior centers, YMCAs, and community recreation centers offer chair yoga as part of their wellness or fitness programs. Some yoga studios and gyms may offer gentle yoga or chair yoga too. And if you’re enrolled in a Medicare Advantage plan, you may be able to access classes for free through SilverSneakers.com.
If attending an in-person class isn’t an option, you can also practice chair yoga at home. There are chair yoga apps and many videos you can access on YouTube to guide you through a routine.
SKI SEASON
From page 1
Repeated atmospheric river systems brought heavy rainfall instead of snow, leading to widespread flooding in western Washington and triggering landslides that disrupted travel throughout the Cascades. The return of colder weather has provided some relief, but meteorologists note that variability is becoming the norm rather than the exception.
Despite the challenges, the mood on the mountain this week was noticeably optimistic. Parking lots filled again, lift lines returned, and the familiar rhythm of winter recreation resumed. For many locals, Snoqualmie Pass is the most accessible mountain escape, offering a chance to ski or snowboard without committing to a multi day trip.
Travelers planning visits in the coming days are encouraged to prepare for changing conditions. Carrying tire chains when required, allowing extra travel time, and checking both resort and highway updates remain essential steps. Officials also remind visitors to respect posted closures and follow all safety guidance as crews continue to manage early season terrain. While the season’s start may have been delayed, the surprise snowfall has reset expectations and renewed excitement. If colder temperatures continue, ski operators say more terrain could open in the weeks ahead, offering hope for a strong mid to late winter.
Travelers planning visits in the coming days are encouraged to prepare for changing conditions. Traction tires are advised, and drivers should be prepared to carry chains when required, allow extra travel time, and check road conditions before heading over Snoqualmie Pass. Officials note that winter weather can shift quickly, particularly following recent storms. For now, the message from Snoqualmie Pass is a welcome one. Winter is back, the slopes are alive again, and ski season has officially arrived in the Cascades.
CHAIR EXERCISE OPTIONS
As an alternative to chair yoga, there are chair exercises you can add to your routine that can help improve strength and balance, reduce joint pain and prevent falls. To execute some of these exercises, you’ll need some resistance equipment like light dumbbells, water bottles, soup cans or resistance bands.
• Sit-to-stand: For this exercise, sit at the edge of the chair, feet hip-width apart. Stand up without using your hands, then slowly sit back down. Use hands lightly on the chair or use a walker or cane if needed for support.
• Seated marches: Sit tall and alternate lifting one knee at a time toward your chest.
• Seated bicep curls: With elbows tucked in, curl weights towards shoulders, then lower with control.
• Seated overhead press: Press weights overhead from shoulder height, then slowly lower.
• Seated leg extensions: Extend one leg straight out and hold for 2-3 seconds, then lower and repeat.
• Heel raises: Lift heels off the floor, pause, and lower back down.
For noticeable benefits, these exercises should be performed at least three days a week, doing three sets of 8 to 12 repetitions.

It’s a perfect bouquet filler, and it’s a short-lived perennial in Zones 5-9. Lisianthus – this one was ‘Champagne’ and looked like a foam-colored rose with a vase life over 10 days. There are several groups of lisianthus (aka prairie gentian) and unfortunately this stunner blooms only in early summer. It was a favorite, but also a temptation never to be repeated. It’s an F1 hybrid so I can’t save the seed, and even if I bought seed, it takes 130 days to mature started indoors in January. Goodbye dear lisianthus – I’ll happily buy you at the farmer’s market.
“What other lessons did I learn? Label everything twice, especially the dahlias. ”
Sweet Pea (Lathyrus) ‘Miss Wilmott’ – although not in my usual color wheelhouse, ‘Miss Wilmott’s in-your-face magenta will not be denied. An heirloom vine from the 1900’s, she was the best bloomer in my patch this summer and sported a distinctive fruity scent I loved.
Zinnia ‘Cupcakes Pink’ – this charming mix of singles and double Scabiosa-type flowers comes in every range of rosy, pink, including stripes that look like antique tea-towels. It tops out at only 30” tall, so it’s easy to fit in, especially if you favor cramscaping. Planted at the feet of tomato plants, mine are bursting out from under their (now vanquished) oppressors and still blooming in November with nary a spot of mildew. What other lessons did I learn? Label everything twice, especially the dahlias. Set alarms so you don’t spend so much time watering the tomatoes and dahlias that you forget to harvest the sweet pea seeds in time or order bulbs. Maybe 2026 will be the year of mindful abundance –including appreciating the abundance already in the garden.
