5.0 out of 5 stars A lovely series of practices., April 3, 2004

By	YogaKat "YogaKat" (Oregon United States) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

This practice and the DVD entitled Yoga to awaken the Chakras are wonderful. Ananda Yoga uses affirmations during the yoga practice. It is very meditative and refreshing. You work on individual chakras thru yoga postures, breathing techniques, and positive thoughts. Yoga for Busy People is broken into 3-20 segments and you can do them individually or all together. Each segment ends with a visual-yoga nidra type of relaxation. Yoga to Awaken the Chakras goes thru each of the seven chakras again thru postures, breathing, techniques, and positive affermations.

If you have not tried Ananda Yoga yet, I would recommend starting with Yoga for Busy People. If you like it, try Yoga to Awaken the Chakras. I use both and alternate with my other Kundalini Yoga, Hatha Yoga, and Tai Chi personal practice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing results!, December 25, 2007

By	B. Elmit - See all my reviews

I attended a great ananda yoga class 4 years ago, that brought me not only inner peace, but helped me conceive my only child. Since then, I have moved overseas, and and after trying so many yoga DVDs without finding inner peace, I finally found this amazing and simple Yoga for Busy People. OK, the title left me in doubt, initially, but after just 3 sessions, I felt the way I was back 4 years ago, peaceful, more positive, healthier, and best of all, my blood pressure went back to normal. I also breathe easier now. I would recommend this for anybody looking to de-stress their lives. It is the best out there! And not to worry, the yoga poses here are so simple, even beginners will find them easy.
