This guide aims to show you how to achieve a fit and supple body through the practice of postures (asanas). Easy-to-follow and especially chosen for beginners, these work on all the body systems, toning the muscles, stimulating the circulation and improving overall health. The first part presents a carefully chosen selection of 41 postures and variants which can be attempted by beginners of all ages. The second part is a course for beginners, specially devised by the author with a program of postures and preparatory breath control techniques. The book also includes a section on helpful postures for common problems such as headaches or backache, as well as information on tools required for home practice.

An extremely well written and easy to use beginners book on yoga. Covers all the basics, from the asanas (and how to do them properly, with full step by step illustrations of how to do them), through a 10 week beginners course, right up to Pranayama (yogic breath control) and pratyahara (meditation). extremely well recommended for all beginners.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great value - an excellent home-study yoga book, 16 Nov 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Use Yoga: A Step-by-step Guide to the Iyengar Method of Yoga for Relaxation, Health and Well-being (Hardcover)
An excellent home-study yoga book!

This Iyengar yoga book focuses on postures (asanas and includes a ten-week course, outlining asanas for every day of the ten weeks.

The yoga itself is easy to do, since you can support yourself with various accessories such as pillows and blankets until strong and flexible enough to do without them.

Each posture is described in words as well as full colour photos, and the programmes are illustrated with minature pictures of the postures required - a very useful aide-memoire, I thought.

It's a nice, big book, full of information. Among my favourites!
