Ignite Your Creativity and Stoke Your Compassion: 40 Essential Yoga Postures (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781704539171)

If you get nothing else from this book, at least get this: YOU ARE ENOUGH. RIGHT WHERE YOU ARE IS THE PERFECT PLACE. NOW IS THE TIME.Yoga is a practice of being and becoming a more honest, kind, compassionate, caring, considerate, thoughtful, and mindful human being. Often yoga practice has been and is being marketed for its side effects: increased balance, strength, flexibility, bone density, heart health, anxiety and depression reduction, overall reduced health care costs and personal quality of life. While all of this is often true for most people who practice yoga, it is not and has not been the reason for yoga's development and flourishing. In other words, if practicing yoga doesn't seem to make you more honest, kind, compassionate, caring, considerate, thoughtful, and/or mindful someone is either not really teaching you yoga or you are not practicing yoga correctly.This book is intended as a yoga practice companion rather than a yoga practice manual. There are literally thousands of yoga books on what to do and how to do yoga postures. There are literally tens if not hundreds of thousands of yoga teachers who can tell you where to put your foot or how to use a yoga prop. This book is not intended to be used for that purpose. Instead, this is an exploration of the why. This is an inquiry into the what, how, and why to use your mind in a yoga practice.
