Is stress getting to you? Need a little extra oomph after a late night of studying (or partying)? Or maybe you’re just looking for a peaceful way to regroup and relax. If so, yoga is just the thing for you!



Practicing yoga will make you feel great—inside and out. It helps to limber your body, calm your mind, and give you an overall sense of strength, vitality, and well-being. From Sun Salutation to deep relaxation, breathing practices to meditation, this book guides you through a complete hatha yoga session much like you’d get from a professional instructor. With how-to tips on adapting poses for your particular needs, lots of variations to challenge you, and a rundown of the specific health benefits of each pose, you’ll get all the advantages of a classroom workout in the comfort of your own private sanctuary!



So next time you feel like you want to stretch your body, soothe your mind, and get energized all at the same time, find a quiet spot and just say, “om.”
