Putting it all together.
If, like me, you have a shelf full of well-thumbed yoga books but no guru or serious yoga teacher, you may be grasping some aspects of Yoga beyond the outer aspects such as Asana practice, but perhaps are perplexed as to how it should all fit together as a real-life living experience. This book addresses this issue extremely thoroughly, offering for the first time to my knowledge a complete integrated course incorporating Asana, Pranayama, Kriya, Karmas.... all the aspects of a living Yoga practice which are usually written about separately. The course begins with the easiest cleansing techniques and basic joint-loosening exercises, and a suggested time-frame before continuing to the next lesson. There is no need for guess-work, everything is set out and explained. I am so grateful for this book tying things together in a coherent way, it is the book I have been waiting for! The diagrams are clear and there is plenty of accessible information without intellectualism or waffle, but this is not dumbed down by any means. This may seem expensive, but when you hold it in your hands you will see what excellent value this is as it contains more information than a stack of Yoga books and presented in a much more usable format. Excellent.
