Description
Yoga for Beginners is the essential guide to getting started with yoga. With a friendly voice and step-by-step instructions, this book offers everything you need to start enjoying yoga's calming and strengthening effects on your life. This book is a guide to the practice of the primary series with a section on meditation and commentary on how each practice informs the other. While the book is appropriate for all levels of students and gives instruction at the most advanced level, emphasis is placed on the importance of maintaining a "beginner's mind." Rather than focusing on a direct and linear approach, this book explores variations to certain postures that are not traditionally offered in the Ashtanga system. This makes the practice accessible to a wider audience. It is sometimes assumed that practice is only for the young and fit; the approach offered here seeks to deny that assumption. Based on years of teaching beginners, the methods described here have successfully taken total beginners into the traditional postures in a surprisingly short period.
