How to Use Yoga: A Step-by-Step Guide to the Iyengar Method of Yoga for Relaxation, Health and Well-Being Shown in 450 Photographs

Customer Reviews:

Good for beginners and teachers

By A Customer - April 15, 1999

The book is very similar in presentation to the book Mira Mehta published previously, Yoga the Iyengar Way, in that it has colorful, large photos. However, it is more geared toward a beginner and written more clearly. Only 41 asanas (poses) are presented, all of them basic poses. However, several variations of each asana are given, with clear instructions on the benefits of each variation.There are two wonderful features of the book poses for common pains. The 10-week yoga course is structured with a two page spread for each week. On the left-hand page is a list of asanas to practice on each day of the week. At the bottom of that page and the next are little photographs of people doing the poses recommended for that week. So, a beginner could follow the course just by opening to the appropriate page -- no flipping around through the book trying to figure out what the heck "Downward Facing Dog pose" is. The courses are also useful for teachers trying to... read more

At last: a yoga book that teaches sequencing!

By A Customer - August 28, 1999

I often had questions that arose during my home yoga practice, particularly about how to sequence the poses. I am so happy to have found Mira Mehta's "How to Use Yoga." This book is packed with information in a balanced blend of text instruction and pictorial guidance for each pose. Best of all, the author includes a ten-week practice course in an easy-to-follow format, along with sequences for common problems and special times, such as back pain, headaches, and menstruation. Get this book: It's like having a yoga teacher at home!

This is great!

By A Customer - February 15, 1999

This book will take you through a relaxing, powerful and healthy 10-week Yoga program. In the first half of the book, all of the asanas (postures) are described in step-by-step detail, and illustrated with large color photos. In the second half of the book is the 10-week program, one week at a time. There are smaller photos illustrating each step of the daily workout in this section. To make it easy to switch from the program pages back to the asana description pages, this crafty author and Yoga teacher has included sturdy, cardboard flaps on the front and back covers so you can mark the pages you are using most frequently during your daily exercise. The book is large, and doesn't slam shut if you lay it in the floor in front of you. It is one of the best books I have seen!
