If you want to feel fit but are stressed for time then you need this book.
I've been practising yoga for three years and this book is all I've needed to help stay stress free and fit generally as well as remind me of how to do the poses.
The book is broken into ten minute Hatha yoga workouts or chapters for legs, arms, flexibility (stretching) and more. If you do all the chapters, you have a complete workout which you can do once a week and the exercises do keep you in shape, though you have to work at them.
There is an advanced workout at the end of the book, which includes headstands and one-hand poses. Very challenging and only for the very advanced.
What I like best about the book are the beginner and advanced ten-minute daily miracles, which are like mini-workouts for the whole body and can be done in the early morning before your daily chores or any time of the day.
There's even a section on diet and an appendix that covers health problems such as asthma and a list of recommended poses to alleviate the health problems.
Barbara is incredibly clear with her instructions and I love the colour photographs that map the poses.
This book is all I'll ever need on yoga.

Great book!

I had been interested in starting Yoga and found this book at my library. The fully-colored photographs convinced me to borrow it. As a beginner, I found this book VERY helpful. Aside from the photos, each pose is described step-by-step in detail, so it's very easy to follow. Also, there's a paragraph describing the benefits received from that particular pose (i.e. - what body part you're toning, stress-relieving purposes, etc.). At the end of each chapter is a list and of all the poses from that chapter's routine for quick reference.

I love how this book is divided. It starts with 2 different 10-minute sessions (beginning and advanced). The next few chapters are divided into what section of your body you want to tone. So if you feel like focusing more on your thighs and butt one day, you can just turn to that chapter and follow that routine. There's also a chapter on abs and another on your upper body.

This book is not only for introduction purposes. There is also a 40-minute routine for advanced Yoga students, with a bunch of headstands and shoulderstands I hope to be able to do one day! I defintely plan on buying this book sometime in the future.
