Description
The Heart of Yoga is a comprehensive guide to developing a personal yoga practice, based on the principles of viniyoga. T. K. V. Desikachar, a renowned yoga teacher, presents a step-by-step approach to creating a tailored practice that addresses the individual's unique needs.
This revised edition includes 32 poems by Krishnamacharya, which capture the essence of his teachings. Desikachar's method is rooted in his father's fundamental concept of viniyoga, which emphasizes the importance of adapting practices to the individual's changing needs. The book covers all aspects of yoga, including poses, breathing, meditation, and philosophy, to help students develop a practice that is both physical and spiritual.
With The Heart of Yoga, Desikachar offers a practical and accessible approach to yoga, making it an ideal resource for those seeking to deepen their practice and achieve a greater sense of well-being.
