  La bonitez y cantidad de información son directamente proporcionales en este mini libro. Toca temas que van desde el origen del yoga, poses y beneficios hasta los chakras, ejercicios de respiración y meditación, incluyendo un path to enlightenment. Vamos, todo lo que me gusta últimamente en poco más de 200 páginas.

  This cute book is a combination of bite-size information on yoga poses, breathing tips, and meditation advice; along with an easily digestible presentation of the history and philosophy of yoga. I had flicked through it on occasion over the last few years, however I finally picked it up and decided to read it front to back. The tone is light, yet it shines a light on yogic culture that the mainstream glosses over. The book explains the journey of yoga through history, and how it can be a way of life - encapsulating all aspects of the human experience and perspective, with physical poses only forming a small part of the concept of yoga as a whole. Various interesting yoga practices are outlined, with advice on how to try them if the reader wishes. I didn't expect to get as much out of The Little Book of Yoga as I did; it opened my eyes to the depths and potential of yoga, as well as a rich history. A great little book for anyone interested in yoga!

  Started having this book on my bedside almost two years ago, occasionally taking a glimpse, trying out a pose, a few pages every few weeks, then actually started reading it only recently.
  A really sweet little book about yoga. It goes through telling you about the yoga lifestyle, the poses, lots of it, what they’re good for, how to do them properly etc. And it ends by expanding way beyond the poses, how to live the yoga spirit, doing meditation, breathing and all that comes with it. I had no idea Yoga was so “big” as in what it all is beyond doing poses on a mat. I really enjoyed it.

  If you want to learn about the 8 limbs of yoga, this is a great resource. It is simple and concise with enumerated details of each limb.

  A nice book for a beginner that breaks down the Sun Salutation and other poses, and their benefits.

  Part of my New Year's resolution (OK, every year) is to do more yoga and get more flexible. Sigh. Anyway, this book is the best short one I've read on yoga anywhere. It puts yoga into its historical context, talks about the different types of yoga, and about how yoga has spiritual dimensions that often get lost in the physical shuffle. A beautiful little book, and now there are no excuses for making progress in 2016. Hooray.

  Although a short book, this was a great overview of all aspects of yoga and yoga philosophy. I recommend it to anyone new to yoga.

  Just a simple reminder to practice yoga just as often and as diligently after you walk out of the studio. An adorable coffee table book.
