| Dynamic Yoga Kia Meaux This book is an excellent introduction to dynamic yoga. I had been to a few classes when i bought it so I had a grasp of the basics but this book has been invaluable in helping me practise at home. What sets it apart from the other books I have seen are the step-by-step photos of how to get into each position, and how to move from one to another. Not only that, but it offers alternatives if you aren't yet flexible enough to reach some of the harder positions. These 2 factors mean that a beginner won't feel disheartened, or risk doing damage trying to stretch into a position they are not ready for. At the back of the book there are 3 practice sequences (of 30, 60 and 90 minutes) which make it easier trying to fit practise into a busy life. Just 15 minutes of dynamic yoga every day really does make a difference and this book makes that achievable. There is plenty of information on the background of yoga and starting out. I would highly recommend this book to anyone thinking of taking up yoga as it is clearly explained and the author recognises that few people have 90 minutes a day in which to practice! |

Samadhi The Highest State of Wisdom: Yoga the Sacred Science Volume 1 " The day that you attain a state of samadhi, not only will you stop identifying yourself with the objects of the world, but you will be established in your essential nature. You will become a yogi..." Yoga the Sacred Science brings Patanjali's Yoga Sutras to life in a very personal and helpful way. Swami Rama's description of the totality of the mind, the functions of the mind and the emotions, goes far beyond the concepts of modern psychology and provides insight into the intricacies of yoga psychology, making this an invaluable and inspiring edition from the therapeutic viewpoint as well as its practicality as a guide for living a healthy, balanced life |

Little Book of Wisdom A reader's comments: The little book of happiness should be owned by everyone. This tiny little book has a simple, non-cryptic message on every page and is perfect to dip into for a little inspiration. Perfect for even non-spiritual people, this book suggests small and practical ways to change the way we think and interact with people to help us be happier in our every day life. The Dalai Lama takes a non-dogmatic approach to showing us that we don't need to change our environment to achieve happiness, but by making small changes to the way we think inside, we can achieve true and lasting happiness, not just for ourselves but for the people around us and the world as a whole. I'm not even the slightest bit spiritual, but after reading this book, I was inspired to read "The Art of Happiness", also by the Dalai Lama. By taking on-board the simple advice offered, I am no longer stressed-out all the time, and find life a lot easier to take. I thoroughly recommend this book to anyone at all.
