Customer Reviews

Love this book.

i bought this book a couple of weeks ago and am very pleased with it. Not only the poses and discussion about yoga itself, but the many meditations (something i am horrible at, and really need in my life) and the recipes-they all sound fabulous, i don't know which to try first. i enjoy the personal stories included in the book-they remind me that even imperfect people like me can do better with yoga and caring for oneself. There is only one pose that i can't seem to get from the description, but overall, she is fabulous at explaining each pose or meditation. Aside from the information, the book is well written, with a personal, caring voice and is just beautiful. Personally, i recommend it.

Yoga for Women

When I saw "Yoga for Women" for sale, I had to buy it immediately! This is the second book I've bought by Shakta Kaur Khalsa (the first was Kundalini Yoga -- also fantastic!).I knew it would be high quality not only because it is published by DK (well-known for its beautiful photography, layout, and design) but because it is written by such a gifted writer!Shakta has such a beautiful, lyrical, poetic way of expressing her deep well of knowledge about yoga.This book is so rich in wonderful healing, energizing, and nurturing activities. It is incredibly beautiful and inspiring. I literally felt better just reading it, even before I did any of the very accessible and effective "kriyas" (exercises).There's also a great section on yoga for relationships!This book would make a perfect gift for anyone who is interested in learning about yoga in a clear, uplifting, meaningful way.Thank you, Shakta, for blessing us with the beauty of your soul!

User Friendly and Personal

I love this women's yoga book. I truly enjoyed the combination of hatha yoga and kundalini yoga, the recipes and the meditations. I especially like the conversational and "personal touch" which makes this book both informative and "intimate". It's like practicing with a group of friends who are sharing instead of just lecturing.
