Yoga Mind, Body & Spirit

Book Description

The ultimate guide to yoga for beginners and advanced practitioners alike, revealing how yoga enhances the connections between mind, body, and spirit.

In Yoga Mind, Body & Spirit, internationally renowned yoga instructor Donna Farhi presents the first holistic guide to yoga. This user-friendly guide, illustrated with over 240 two-color photographs and illustrations, sets forth the tenets of this gentle yet rigorous exercise as no other book has.

Integrating the teachings of every tradition, Farhi reveals how yoga enhances the connections between the mind, body, and spirit. She outlines the seven simple movement principles that underlie all human motion and provides exercises to help readers understand how they can achieve all yoga postures. She also discusses the ten ethical precepts that are the foundation of all yoga teachings and explains how to incorporate them into a spiritually and emotionally rewarding inner practice.

At the heart of Yoga Mind, Body & Spirit are more than seventy-five yoga asanas or postures. Each is pictured and described in detail, arranged into related groups--including standing postures, sitting postures, arm balances, and breathing practices--for easy reference. A selection of yoga practices of varying lengths and levels of difficulty provides challenges and inspiration for beginner, intermediate, and advanced students.

With its broad scope and holistic approach, Yoga Mind, Body & Spirit is the ideal book for today's mainstream audience looking to explore the benefits and techniques of yoga.
