Practice the 12 basic Yogic postures and the variations and advanced asanas, which are illustrated in easy-to-follow photographs. Discover the benefits of proper breathing through simple step-by-step exercises, and feel how this infuses you with renewed energy. Learn to relax physically and mentally, letting go of stressful situations by adopting a positive attitude and Yogic philosophy. Purify and strengthen your body and mind with nutritionally balanced meals, following dietary advice and imaginative vegetarian recipes. Unlock the hidden powers of your mind through meditation, explore the benefits of positive thinking and discover within yourself a broader sense of purpose.


The London Sivananda Yoga Center's Yoga Mind & Body is a comprehensive yet user-friendly guide for anyone interested in starting or expanding a yoga practice. All the essentials are covered, from the Sun Salutation and 12 basic asanas (the system of poses that make up hatha yoga) to relaxation, positive thinking, breathing, purification, and meditation techniques. The book contains more than 500 beautiful illustrations demonstrating both basic and advanced poses. The detailed instructions will enable anyone, regardless of age, sex, or physical ability, to start practicing yoga at home. The physical, mental, and pranic (energy) benefits of each pose are included, as well as a discussion of common alignment problems associated with each asana. The authors also give readers a taste of yoga philosophy and the yoga lifestyle, including a section on vegetarianism complete with dozens of recipes to refuel after completing those shoulder stands, forward bends, and spinal twists. --Ellen Albertson
