Product Description

Synopsis
Rachel Schaeffer's yoga programme is a method of uniting mind and body. There are postures, stories, and meditations to tone us spiritually as well as physically. Schaeffer shows how we can consciously develop twelve spiritual muscles, inner qualities such as acceptance, focus, flexibility, balance, peace, confidence, compassion, energy, and playfulness. The premise is simple: develop a flexible spine, and think more creatively; improve your physical balance and you can better balance work and play.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic - helps to move you deeper into your practice, 20 April 2001

By A Customer

This book is beautifully presented and it's structure helps you to move deeper into your practice in a very practical way, assisting in the integration of both body and mind. The session structures mean you can dip into a quality which you would like to work on. This has helped me to integrate my Yoga practice into what's happening in life and come out enriched from the experience ready to face the day.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must-have book for beginners and advanced yoga students!, 20 April 1999

By A Customer

Yoga is becoming very popular these days, and yet there aren't very many books out there that present yoga as clearly or beautifully as Yoga for Your Spiritual Muscles. The message of this book is that yoga can help you develop not only your physical self but your inner self as well. I really like how the author lists specific inner qualities (like Peace, Compassion, Awareness, and 12 other "spiritual muscles") that you can develop and then provides complete chapters with postures, breathing exercises and meditations designed to enhance each "spiritual muscles".

5.0 out of 5 stars A Beautiful Book About an Often-Misunderstood Subject, 14 Oct 1998

By A Customer

Rachel Schaeffer has created in this book a beautifully-written, wonderfully-photographed essay on the many uses and benefits of the much misunderstood but increasingly popular exercise discipline of hatha yoga. Once the province of those who either craved eternal youth or wished for withdrawal from the world around them, hatha yoga is now embraced by athletes, overstressed yuppies, and baby boomers looking for low-stress, low-impact fitness. It will work for all of these things and more, if properly taught in a balanced way, and this is where Ms. Schaeffer excels. I once believed that yoga could not be properly taught outside a class with an instructor always standing by. Rachel Schaeffer has happily disproved this with excellent instruction, precautions, and illustrations--and all this backs a truly holistic way of integrating the practice of yoga into a life that need not be withdrawn, nor in denial of the world, but full, rich, and deeply involved with the world and (in the most positive way) with oneself. A marvelous book!
