Welcome to the world of yoga. Yoga Journal's Yoga Basics offers the first truly comprehensive introduction to the practice of this popular ancient healing art. Produced by a teacher of yoga for over 25 years and the editors of Yoga Journal, it offers all the inspiration and instruction you'll need to develop your own at-home yoga practice. Beginning with an exploration of the roots of yoga, the book goes on to describe a variety of hatha yoga styles-- Iyengar, Ashtanga, Kundalini, and others-- so you can choose the method that's appropriate for you. Featuring easy-to-follow instructions and 140 black-and-white photographs to illustrate the postures, Yoga Basics provides a thorough understanding not only of the mechanics of technique but of all the important elements that make yoga so much more than a fitness regime. In this unique book you'll find: * Tips on the use of the breath in yoga practice and breath awareness exercises * Guidelines for regular practice, including health and safety considerations * Dozens of illustrated postures-- standing, seated, supine, and prone-- with their benefits described * Sample Yoga routines that can be done in as little as 15 minutes per day * Instruction on the practice and power of meditation

Writer and editor Bruce Black began studying yoga five years ago, when his knees could no longer stand the stress of running. After taking classes for a few years, he started keeping a journal to explore his experiences on the mat. Out of his journal and his devotion to Anusara Yoga has emerged a book that delves into the nexus of yoga, writing, and life. In Writing Yoga, Bruce begins by sharing tips he has learned along the way: the benefits of keeping a practice journal, how to select just the right blank book, writing at different times of day, how often, and more. He has organized the book, by theme, into chapters with guided writing exercises. Part memoir, part writing guide, Bruce reflects on practice as life: the excitement of walking into his first yoga class, apprehension about bending backward, discomfort with body appearance, the yoga of family relationships, the exhilaration of coming into a headstand for the first time, deepening appreciation for his teachers, and waking up to the exquisite beauty of the world around him. And he weaves excerpts from his own journal throughout. Bruce guides you in stepping onto your mat and picking up your journal with curiosity and commitment. He shows how your journal can become a good friend, a confidant, a tool to deepen your experience of asana and pranayama, and a mindfulness practice in itself.

The Life Changing Magic of Practicing Yoga. Book 6 of the Creative Mermaids Live Your Creative & Vibrant Life Series is an intimate 30 day yoga journey that beckons you to start one of your own. Part journal prompts for healing and part personal essay on how yoga helped Sherrie heal, My Yoga Journal is a place for you to dive deeper into your yoga practice while simultaneously reading along with Sherrie's healing process. In 2017 Sherrie found herself in a world she no longer recognized. The mother of two small children, she was about to end her 13-year relationship with their father and suddenly had to refer to her youngest brother in the past tense. She was also months away from setting sail on her family's sailboat for a world trip, and that was suddenly no more a certainty either. Yoga, which previously had been something she had only dabbled in, became her bridge to her return to self. A place where she could move through what she described as her "vibrating pain." Through the moving meditations that Yoga gave her, Sherrie began to see how she had fallen completely out of alignment with everything she wanted from her life. And as she added journalling and essential oils to the practice she found a soul therapy that helped her peel away the expectations she had taken upon herself as a new mother and instead to find the woman she still was inside. One who was willing to meet motherhood as a woman rather than a martyr and to bring creativity back into her life even if happiness felt like a betrayal after the loss of her brother. If you find yourself wanting to deepen your yoga practice or being called to use yoga as part of your healing from the the grief process but are unsure where to begin, get your copy today.
