RATING:
B
This
book is far from new to me, as I have had a copy in my possession -
on and off - for circa a decade. I first purchased a copy second hand
at a library sale in NSW, hoping to teach my son Yoga as part of his
home schooling studies. However, he preferred walking and gardening
as activities and the book sat round on the shelf - til my best
friend Ralph encouraged me when I was toying with the idea of taking
up Yoga in order to help my arthritic back.
My
'incurable' (according to Western medicine) back was cured and
multiple additional benefits began to appear as I got more and more
involved in Yoga... When I moved to England in 2009, I only bought 3
books with me and could not cram my copy of this book in my suitcase.
It has only been recently that I picked up a second second hand copy
online and have slowly re-read it. I have used the Sivananda style of
Yoga mostly, although I have also practiced Tibetan Heart Yoga when I
had a full half hour spare.
I
would recommend this book to those seeking a companion to home Yoga,
beginners looking to practice safely in their own home or have a
guideline to out-of-class top ups, and the more experienced
practitioner hoping to add something to - or as in my case - review
and renew their practice.
