Hatha Yoga: The Complete Mind and Body Workout

This is one of the better books on Hatha yoga available today. As a yoga practioner and teacher I have a huge collection of yoga books and find that I return to this book and Ms. Pegrum's Ashtanga yoga book time and time again. She gives a great overview of yoga and great advice on the asana. The information is easily understood by those new to yoga and a nice condensed version of information for yoga teachers. Certainly worth the money.

Juliet Pegrum, the author of four prior books on the sacred arts of Vastu and Yoga, has written another wonderful introduction to the healing art of Hatha Yoga. With a no-nonsense approach coupled with her intimate, detailed instructions and photographs, this book is a must for both the novice and the seasoned yogi. What makes Pegrum's approach so fresh is her absolute lack of pretense - it's all about your commitment to the practice, she is just your guide. Everyone who is serious about Yoga cannot miss it!
