Yoga For Wellness

Healing With the Timeless Teachings of Viniyoga

by Gary Kraftsow

Yoga For Wellness by Gary Kraftsow

This great resource is not only deeply rooted in the ancient traditions of yoga, it is clearly organized and easy to follow for a modern practitioner in today's fast paced world. It gives you the basic tenets of Viniyoga and encourages the development of a personal practice that will enhance your health and well being. Plus the value of yoga for overcoming ailments is explored in detail. Case studies are given and practice sequences are clearly described and illustrated.
     The sections of this book dealing with neck, shoulder, and upper and lower back issues formed the basis of practices used in a National Institutes of Health study. This study scientifically proved the value of these exercises for improving muscular and skeletal health. (For DVDs on these areas click here.) Further information in the book focuses on digestive, respiratory, cardiovascular, immune, endocrine, nuerological, reproductive and emotional health.
     The exercises in this book are certain to help those searching for alternatives to mainstream medicine and those looking for a way of becoming more involved in their own physical well-being.
