Summary: a truly useful book
Comment: Yoga is a practical philosophy & exercise regime that requires little equipment & less fanfare than almost any form of exercise other than walking or jogging. & with yoga you don't have to cope with traffic, people hurtling in opposite directions, pavements, potholes & pooches.
The one thing to remember about yoga is it's not a form of exercise that's in a hurry. The whole point is to slow down, extend & flex yourself slowly, deliberately, carefully.
A ten week course of Asanas is clearly illustrated as well as the Asanas for headaches, menstruation, stiff necks & shoulders & so on.
There are cautions given - about having a teacher first help you with the inverted postures, & people with chronic ailments.
HOW TO USE YOGA is elegant & truly useful - a pleasure to own. It has really helped me unwind, unstaple & uncrinkle my body & soul from the hectic workaday world I insist they lead, especially as I live far away from any yoga teacher.

Summary: Excellent for folks new to yoga practice!
Comment: I have really enjoyed learning yoga with this excellent step by step guide. Although its lighter on theory and explanation of the sutras and philosophy behind yoga than some of the other texts on yoga, its one of the best I've seen on how to do the asanas correctly. When you are thoroughly confused by yoga instructors who are busy teaching 60+ folks in the same classroom, this book will be a far superior mentor and friend than expensive yoga teachers! Highly recommended. Other than the Hatha and Ashtanga yoga books written by BKS Iyengar, I dont see anything better out there.

Summary: Wonderful beginners yoga book.
Comment: I actually returned a few other yoga books but keep this one. It has lots of help with getting into positions etc. Also has good background on yoga. Nice pictures.
