Swedish yoga instructor Ulrica Norberg offers a fresh look at Hatha Yoga, often called "the way of the body." Yoga, according to Norberg, is a discipline that does not strive after an abstract idea of perfection but rather encourages us to fulfill our own individual potential. Beginning with the history of yoga and an overview of its diverse forms, she explains proper breathing before focusing on asanas, positions intended to increase consciousness, relaxation, strength, and concentration. Through the gorgeous full-color photography of Andreas Lundberg, Norberg takes yoga off the mat and onto the forest floor, the serenity and beauty of her poses even more striking against the breathtaking backdrop of nature. This book is sure to inspire and guide beginner and advanced yoga practitioners alike. Book jacket.
