Yoga: The Path to Holistic Health
by B.K.S. Iyengar, Daphne Razazan
In this comprehensive and highly illustrated guide, the world's leading teacher of yoga shares his unique, holistic approach.
For Iyengar, yoga is more than just a form of exercise; it is a holistic experience that benefits the body, mind and spirit.
He outlines the philosophy and ideals behind this ancient practice and explains how yoga can help to counter the stresses of modern
living.
Designed for every level of ability, age and physical condition, there are detailed instructions for beginners, intermediates
and advanced students.
Clearly illustrated, step-by-step instructions explain how to perform each yoga asana, or posture, correctly, while a unique
360-dgree view of the final pose shows exactly how to position each part of the body.
A special section introduces B.K.S Iyengar's innovative use of props, enabling beginners or the less flexible to practice the
classic yoga asanas more easily and effectively.
A further section illustrates sequences of asanas to treat or prevent a wide range of ailments.
In addition, there is a 20-week yoga course, personally formulated by B.K.S. Iyengar, which progresses from simple to more challenging
postures.
