This book is well illustrated and has excellent information.
For a few years, I have taken different a Yoga classes. However, I wanted to find a helpful book with Yoga poses in it for reference purposes. This book is quite helpful for me. I found several poses that were not given in my classes, foe example, Prayer Pose, Boat pose and several others.The illustrations are excellent and the descriptions are wonderful.My favorite thing about this book is that each pose is well describesdcand lists the benefits to the body. I was able to choose new Yoga poses for my shoulder and back that will be very healing for me.If you are new to Yoga or want to learn more about Yoga, then I suggest this book your you.

This book gave me the perfect preparation
This book is about yoga and it’s contains 30 yoga poses. After discussing the equipment it tells you the dos and don’ts s before during and after doing yoga. It also discusses how to avoid injuries due to Yoga, as well as safety tips. Then in Chapter 2 it includes the most often basic yoga poses with instructions as well as illustrations. Chapter 3 is about warm up routines. I found this book to be a all rounder, yoga is one of the most holistic approach to well-being for me. This book gave me the perfect preparation to do all the yoga I needed to at home. I now feel competent and have even mastered a lot of poses. Good book for yoga beginners.

Thank you for making yoga more understandable. Great read if you’re a beginner!
I suffer from several autoimmune issues that result in issues with pain, gait, digestion, neuropathy, insomnia, chronic fatigue, dizziness, and a host of other issues. I am 47 and was very active until the onset my health issues. Yoga has been suggested repeatedly. The author has laid this book out nicely...explaining the pose and it’s benefits. I will plan on following the routine she recommends until I am more familiar with the poses and their benefits. She also suggests different poses for different body parts/systems. It’s an easy read and I’m definitely motivated.

Good book but no pictures
I am enjoying this book. It has good descriptions of poses and sequences for a beginner, but unfortunately most of the pictures for the poses seem to be missing on the kindle version so I have to google as I read.

Yoga for beginners = ME !!!!!!
I am what you call a "5-year beginner" when it comes to yoga & meditation. I have not developed the attention span to sit alone or get on floor for extended periods of time. Although I have health issues (including severe back pain), I like to be active & moving when I exercise. Calming my mind, body & spirit is a hard one for me. The author helps with this issue. The book is easy to follow instructions on how to perform yoga, proper breathing, etc., and photos of each pose. I especially benefit from the chapter "Turning Yoga Into a Habit.". Thank you for this book, Tai Morello.

Great book for beginners
Great book for beginners!I really liked this book. It has dozens of great yoga poses to help you relax, lose weight, get rid of a cold, and more.Every pose is very well explained in terms of how to do it and what are its benefits.Unlike most yoga books out there, this book has illustrations for the poses, so that you can actually see how to do them, instead of just having to use your imagination.Good read!

A comprehensive guide to practising yoga!
I was searching for a good exercise to follow and to be healthy and I came across this book and I finally settle for Yoga. I am now aware of the importance of yoga and how it helps in staying health. Yoga brings not only suppleness to the body but also a sense of spiritual and physical well-being to those who practice it. Featuring over 170 postures from the main schools of yoga, The Yoga Bible is the ultimate, comprehensive guide to practicing yoga and finding a mental and physical balance in life. This book is perfect for beginners because it covers everything you need to know about Yoga and this book has detailed information on each topic.

Great beginner's guide that introduced me to Yoga basics!
I bought this book because I wanted to practice yoga. This remains my very favorite basic yoga book for my home practice. It has the best step-by-step directions for each pose, as well as modifications. It has photos of people in the poses, which I find much more useful than the drawings found in other books. Pictures are well suited and aid the instruction. I absolutely loved this book, it's a great beginner's guide that introduced me to Yoga basics, as well as the many styles of yoga and how best to structure a session.
