How to use Yoga demystifies the art of yoga, making it accessible to everyone who would like to start to practice at home, safely and effectively. The first part, Towards Physical Well-Being, presents a selection of 41 postures and variants, which can be attempted by beginners of all ages. The following section, Towards Mental Peace, introduces simple techniques for breath awareness and control. The second part, A Ten-Week Course, presents a unique course for beginners of postures and preparatory breath control techniques, with a photographic catalogue for each week. The book also includes a section on postures helpful for common problems, such as headaches, stiffness, pain in the shoulders and backache.
