In brief: Walking

Add walking to yoga and some weight lifting for best results.
Don't try to walk too fast, keep intensity low. Be sure th try to warm up first with warm pack on foot/ feet. Do not walk thru pain though. Alternative would be swimming laps.

In brief: Plantar fasciitis

35 y/o with plantar fasciitis would benefit with an exercise program that avoid high impact exercises if they have symptoms in their feet.
Stretching exercises for the plantar fascia daily would help.
