Yoga:
The Path To Holistic Health
by B. K. S. Iyengar
In this guide to Iyengar Yoga--a form of hatha yoga, which uses specific
breathing patterns and meditations to achieve spiritual enlightenment--renowned
yoga guru Bellur Krishnamachar Sundararaja Iyengar draws on his decades
of practice to introduce students to the unique features of his discipline.
In doing so, he explains that Iyengar Yoga emphasizes precise alignment
in all postures and promotes asanas, a standing position in which the practitioner
balances on his or her elbows, arms, and head. Considering students of
all ages who may have physical limitations, BKS Iyengar also shows how
props--such as wooden gadgets, belts, and ropes--may be used to help the
practitioner attain perfect posture. Powells.com

to determine what posture reveals about muscular imbalances. Stiles shares
his understanding of anatomy and kinesiology, joint mobility and muscle
strength, and teaches a series of joint-freeing exercises that can also
