5.0 out of 5 stars If you only get 1 yoga book, make it this one!!!, February 3, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Yoga, Tantra and Meditation in Daily Life (Paperback)
This is a fantastic yoga book! It covers many different subjects relating to your Yoga practice from introductions to different types of yogic traditions to breathing, meditation, and actual yoga postures and routines. There is a section on Hatha Yoga cleansing techniques and even eye yoga. Swami Janakananda also discusses the chakras and kundalini. The last section really gets into meditation and how yoga can fit into your daily life.

Out of all the instructional yoga books I've seen this is by far the best! This is a very comprehensive book and I continually pick it up a read different sections.

Swami Janakanada is the founder of the Scandinanvian Yoga and Meditation School and you can read more about him at http://www.scand-yoga.org/english/om/janakananda.html.

Swami Janakananda also has a lovely CD out for the practice of Yoga Nidra which I highly recommend. Please see my other reviews on Amazon for more information. Namaste'

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the Best, January 25, 2005
By 
John Noodles (A Field in ND, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Yoga, Tantra and Meditation in Daily Life (Paperback)
This was neither my first Yoga book, nor my last, but it is probably my favorite. It is a comprehensive introduction to kundalini yoga, and covers basic asanas, pranayama, and various meditation and concentration techniques. It is a very practical book, written in a clear, direct style. Swami J. offers his instruction without necessarily advocating a radical change in lifestyle (e.g., vegetarianism is not required). If I could keep only one yoga book, this would probably be the one. It presents more than enough information and exercises to keep one working for years and years.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book, September 1, 2006
This review is from: Yoga, Tantra and Meditation in Daily Life (Paperback)
This is a great book on introduction and overview of Yoga. It covers postures, breathing exercises, tantra, and meditation. It also covers a bit about the different chakras, although this is only an overview and not detailed explanation. Overall this is a very good book.
