A Friend,
By JustMe "JustMe" (Cambridgeshire) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Yoga: A Gem for Women (Paperback)
I have owned this book for about 12 years. Every time I go back to it it's like I am reading a whole new book. Geeta Iyengar is amazing because she takes all the detail and insight from the Iyengar method and presents it in such a way as to be so accessible and easy to understand, no fuss just simply stated - it is only now after 15 years of yoga that I can really and truly begin to appreciate the absolute and profound wisdom it contains (slow learner). I found it a great help during pregnancy and have appreciated her detailed understanding of womens' bodies as mine has aged and changed. I will never part with my copy despite the pages that are falling out of it! This is not a book for the absolute novice (my copy has the plates - images - altogether at the back which is initially annoying but understandable once you realise how each of these images is referenced multiple times throughout the text) and doesn't have the 'children's book' easy layout of some yoga books but it is essential for any serious female yoga student.

The biggest favour I ever did myself,

This review is from: Yoga: A Gem for Women (Paperback)
Since starting a yoga class 6 months ago I have lost 20 lbs and feel so much fitter, my posture has improved and back ache disappeared. My teacher recommended this book as a way of understanding how the exercises affect the body to bring about these benefits. It's useful and readable. If you are a lazy slob like I am, buy this book and take a class - you'll never regret it. It's a pleasant way to take a few years off your age and feel a whole lot better. I could swear I am a couple of inches taller with all that lovely stretching.
