Balanced Yoga, The Twelve-Week Programme
Yoga is practiced in many different ways, each of which, however, has the same aim - the harmony and integration of the practitioner's whole being. As the body is often considered to be the best starting-point, this practical guide concentrates on Hatha Yoga, the Yoga of physical exercise. Balanced Yoga, as its title suggests, embraces a wide range of disciplines. Divided into a twelve-week programme, each of the lessons revolves around a guiding thought or principle which is manifested by related exercises or postures. Breathing and relaxation techniques, dietary advice, and aids to concentration and meditation are also included.Designed as a safe and practical guide for men and women, Balanced Yoga provides a simple but complete system of physical, mental and emotional maintenance.
