Yoga & Meditation

This guide puts into amazing words a brief history of yoga, types of yoga, and the science of yoga so that you can understand the practice better.

Authors Marlynn Wei and James Groves have used the techniques in this guide with their clients and have created a streamlined eight-week program with illustrations, adaptable sequences, principles of yoga safety, breathing techniques, and meditation to give you a medically sound overview of the practice from a known and trusted brand, Harvard Medical School.

Wei began yoga during her residency training at Harvard Medical School and integrated the principles of yoga into her work with clients with anxiety and depression.

With The Harvard Medical School Guide to Yoga, you too can experience the same stress reduction and physical fitness benefits as her clients.

Meditations made easy!

As an executive, you believe that you have no time and that you can’t sit still, actually, you know this as a fact.

So maybe you’ve thought that meditation is not for you, but with this modernized approach, you’ll be meditating before you even finish the book.

In order to be more effective and live a happier and healthier life, you need to slow down and unplug. Get more done, do it better, but do less by consciously unplugging for a few minutes each day through meditation.

Unplug simplifies the practice for those overwhelmed and overworked, debunks the common misperceptions about meditation, and shows you both the science of the benefits and easy techniques and tips to incorporate meditation into your daily life.

No matter how busy of a working professional we know you are, you can enjoy the amazing benefits of yoga.

You’ll find a practical approach to integrating a personalized yoga routine into your life down to creating the perfect environment for yoga activities.

What is great about this book is that the chapters are organized by the body part that you want to focus on, so if that simple neck roll isn’t loosening you up from a hard day hunched over your computer, you simply check out the section on Yoga For The Neck.

With incredibly detailed descriptions of the poses and how to hold and breath during them, you’ll turn into a yogi in no time.

We’re not going to go into the benefits of practicing yoga because trust us, there are plenty, but in this book you’ll be able to learn about all of them and get the motivation you need to start practicing, even if it is just for five minutes a day.
