|
![]() | Yoga Explained: A New Step-by-step Approach to Understanding and Practising Yoga by Mira Mehta
Buy used from: £10.33 A fine book with emphasis on the philosophy and conceptual framework of yoga. Many asanas illustrated, but that's not the USP of this more academic book.
|

Buy new: £7.31 / Used from: £7.95 Straight from the source - this is a truly enriching read that tells you the hows and whys of Krishnamacharya's yoga. "The Yoga of the Yogi" is strongly recommended, but not listed on Amazon.

|
![]() | Sivananda Buried Yoga by Yogi Manmoyanand

|
![]() | The Seven Spiritual Laws of Yoga: A Practical Guide to Healing Body, Mind, and Spirit by Chopra, Deepak M.D.
Buy new: £2.92 / Used from: £2.92 Chopra can be credited with bridging the East-West divide. He does get a LITTLE fluffy in places, but this is a great book nonetheless.
|
![]() | Shaolin Warrior - The Way Of Qi Gong

|
![]() | Qigong: Essence of the Healing Dance = [Ch i Kung] by Garri Garripoli

|
![]() | Eight Simple Qigong Exercises for Health - The 8 Pieces of Brocade [2001]

Buy new: £15.79 / Used from: £21.61 "We come forth now, 1500 years from the founding of our Order, for three reasons which work in concert: sharing our philosophy, self preservation, and conquering ignorance". The straight dope.
|
![]() | The Secret Art of Seamm Jasani: 58 Movements for Eternal Youth from Ancient Tibet by Asanaro
Buy new: £5.60 / Used from: £4.64 The author comes across as a bit arrogant, but this is powerful stuff. Really interesting and original. Impossible to find out any more though unless you can track down the elusive Asanaro himself.
|
![]() | The Secret Art of Boabom: Awaken Inner Power Through Defense-Meditation from Ancient Tibet by Asanaro
Buy new: £7.67 / Used from: £3.68 A nice partner to Seamm-Jasani. Really interesting stuff.
|
![]() | The Tibetan Book of Yoga: Ancient Buddhist Teachings on the Philosophy and Practice of Yoga by Geshe Michael Roach

|
![]() | The Field: The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe by Lynne McTaggart
