Publisher Description
The practice of yoga improves flexibility, strength and balance, reduces stress and anxiety, increases energy and decreases fatigue, as well as facilitating the flow of prana (vital energy) and helping balance the koshas (sheaths) of the physical and metaphysical body. Yoga features 90 poses in beautiful pen and ink line drawings. Accompanying the image of the pose are both its Sanskrit and English names and a brief description of how to achieve the pose correctly, the precise meaning of its name and how it benefits the body. With each position exquisitely illustrated and written by an experienced yoga teacher, Yoga is a must-have for beginners and dedicated yoga enthusiasts alike.

Perfection
I searched through tons of books before this one popped up. Exactly what I was looking for. Poses with both English and Sanskrit names, a brief description, and a picture. I loved the author’s use of illustrations, no distraction of clothes, tattoos, hair, or “hot yoga bodies”; The focus is the asana. Yoga is a beautiful, simple, and to the point book.
