In Yoga for Breast Care, senior yoga teacher Bobby Clennell offers a comprehensive program of asana (yoga poses) and pranayama (breathing techniques) designed to support breast health. The book begins with a description of breast development and structure, as well as the lymphatic and hormonal systems. After an examination into breast conditions including pain, fibrocystic breasts, dense breasts, and more, Yoga for Breast Care presents a variety of asana and pranayama divided into categories according to the position the body assumes: standing, sitting, twisting, inverting, bending forward or backward, and lying down. Also included are active and restorative sequences for immunity, energy, cyclic and noncyclic breast pain, cysts, and for pregnancy and nursing mothers. Practices for breast cancer survivors include sequences for those who have recently undergone breast-cancer surgery and are receiving intensive chemotherapy or radiation treatment and for those with decreased mobility and numbness in the arm, shoulder, and chest. Whether readers have experienced problems with their breasts or not, this book provides positive and practical methods for raising awareness and regaining confidence in the body.

I was hoping this book would explain, anatomically, what's going on when I experience breast-related pain and bad posture and give yoga poses to specifically treat those problems. The poses just seem like normal yoga poses, though the instructions and diagrams are easy to follow. The book starts out with some good scientific discussion of breast anatomy and function but lacks sources for most of this info. Clennell instead focuses primarily on spiritual pseudoscience, so I wouldn't recommend getting this if that's not your jam.

Another wonderful addition
I absolutely love the Yoga books from Rodmell Press and this book is no exception. As woman, we face a particular challenge when it comes to breast care - worrying about healthy breasts is a full time job. I have long believed that health and yoga go hand in hand and this is what Yoga for Breast Care focuses on. In this trade paperback sized book, I have found some easy yoga poses that are geared towards the health of my breast. The book is a combination of yoga poses and important information about breast and health. The poses are easy to do and actually serve to relax and manage stress, which is one of the huge issues in our every day lives. Written in a language that is easy to understand, the poses and the information are geared to help all of us feel healthier and more comfortable with our bodies. I particularly enjoy the pose that is actually on the cover of the book. It is wonderful for the whole body, including my very achy back. Another wonderful addition to my yoga library. Thank you Rodmell Press.
