Your Body, Your Yoga: Learn Alignment Cues That Are Skillful, Safe, and Best Suited To You
Your Body, Your Yoga goes beyond any prior yoga anatomy book available. It looks not only at the body’s unique anatomical structures and what this means to everyone’s individual range of motion, but also examines the physiological sources of restrictions to movement.
Two parts are provided in this book: Part 1 raises a new mantra to be used in every yoga posture. The answers presented run through a spectrum, beginning with a variety of tensile resistance to three kinds of compressive resistance. The reader will discover where his or her limits lie, which dictates which alignment cues will work best, and which ones should be abandoned. Part 2 will take these principles and apply them to the lower body, examining the hip joint, the knee, ankle and foot, and will present how your unique variations in these joints will show up in your yoga practice.
