Gentle Source of Strength

This is one of my all time favorite Yoga instruction books. The photographs, drawings and instructions with the poses are simple and easy to follow. The mind/body connection is explained in an easy to understand, flowing manner. Yoga encourages us, as women, to be fully present in our body, mind and spirit and to listen to our bodies, something we often neglect to do in the fast-paced, stressed out, harried lives most of us lead. My favorite chapter was Chapter Four - Life Events, which guides you through postures to bring into your basic program when your life is passing through particular events or emotional phases. Great book to own whether you're a novice or an expert!

A Gentle Empowerment

I loved this book! It is rare to find anything that validates you as you are, without telling you a million things to fix about yourself. This book emphasizes loving your body and mind and being gentle to yourself. It shows the poses with several advanced and beginner variations and is very easy to follow. I'm glad my friend lent it to me - and I'm here today to buy my own copy...Happy Reading!
