Review:
Yoga for your Type explores in much greater depth how and why to approach asana practice from the perspective of Ayurvedic principles. It's a handsome, accessible, clearly written, well-illustrated guide to understanding and formulating your practice so that it will promote doshic balance ...Nearly 150 pages of individual poses accompanied by charts detailing how people of different doshic types should approach each pose. The poses are very capably demonstrated by a roster of models... in a nice aesthetic touch, major sections are separated by artful photos of well-known teachers...Yoga for Your Type is inviting, wise and useful. - Yoga Journal
This extraordinary book represents a reunification of the wisdom of two paths which have until now remained largely separate in modern times. These pages are brimming with practical and immediately useful recommendations not only regarding adapting one's asana practice to one's specific body type, but how we can live in harmony with our unique selves. The authors have performed a meaningful and unprecedented service in delineating the inextricable relationship between Yoga and Ayurveda. This volume is a truly important milestone in the restoration of unity between these two teachings. - Scott Gerson, MD, Medical Director, Clinical Services, The National Institute of Ayurvedic Medicine, Author: The Sattva Program: The Ayurvedic Approach to Weight Loss and Maintenance. |
