5.0 out of 5 stars A must-read for both aspiring and experienced yoga students., August 26, 1998
By A Customer
Esther Myers, building on her background in Iyengar Yoga, finds a balanced and integrated style through the teachings of Vanda Scaravelli (author of "Awakening the Spine"). This book balances the history and philosophy of yoga with postures, breathing and meditation. She also includes personal anecdotes from her life, including her battle with breast cancer. Esther's approach is down-to-earth and her descriptions of the postures are clear, including drawings or pictures for each. I find myself going back to this book over and over, as a yoga teacher, to take in her simply profound wisdom and insight into yoga. "Yoga and You" is both inspirational and practical and highly recommended to anyone who is either just starting out, or has been practising yoga for years. An incredibly beautiful picture of the author with her cat shows a truly gently natured woman whom you feel you want to get to know as you read her book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Find a place for it in your library - a great reference., February 22, 2008
As good as 'The Joy of Cooking' is for cooks who love to cook; Esther Myer's book 'Yoga and You' is the same for Yoga Teachers. The book may not introduce you to anything specactularly new and different but this book is better written and more concise than most. It's a great reference - nothing is missing. I would definitely find a place for it in your library.
