Yoga for Stress Relief works

I checked this book out at the library a few months ago. It worked. I felt stress melt away as I progressed week to week. When I returned it to the library I tried other yoga books, but I haven't felt the same since. I NEED this book and I plan to buy it very soon. It's on my wish list right now..... I bought it and it is a life saver.

I didn't realize how good this book was.....

I bought this book about 9 months ago, and then skimmed through it, and tried one or two exercises, and put it away. It didn't look enough like the yoga I was used to doing so I dismissed it. A few weeks ago, I started going through the 12 week program as outlined in the book, and I can't believe how wonderful it makes me feel! The first two weeks consist primarily of neck, shoulder, and upper back stretches which really relieves any tension stored there. The next two weeks adds in stretches for the lumbar region and legs, and then some more familiar poses, like shoulderstand, cobra, bow, and sun salutations are added through the rest of the program. It also includes breathing exercises and meditations, as well as recommendations for specific stress-related ailments. There are clear instructions and illustrations throughout.

I'm so glad I finally decided to give this book a try!!

Yoga For Stress Relief

Best of Breed. This book is the best one I have read on Yoga. If it included the headstand in a manner similar to Salutation to the Sun, the book would be perfect. (The headstand is not included). This book is also published in Spanish; titled Yoga para el Estres isbn 84-88242-75-1. Yoga para el Estres is exactly the same (text and illustrations) as Yoga for Stress Relief. Considering the large spanish speaking marketplace, I recommend that amazon look into acquiring this publication from the spanish publisher (Gaia Ediciones)for availability on amazon.com
