Product Review
Perfect for beginners or folks with a bit of yoga experience, The Little Yoga Book is a perfectly portable antidote to stress. The book is based on a "gentle, flowing yoga" called Hatha yoga. It features poses to undo tension related to computer use, and packs in more than 40 illustrated poses for improving flexibility and stamina, 7 powerful breathing exercises for soothing both your mind and body, and 10 individual workouts, from a quick workplace refresher to an intensive at-home program.
Author Erika Dillman started practicing yoga after being diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome. She was nervous when she went to her first class: "I couldn't shake from my mind the pictures I'd seen in yoga books of gaunt, solemn men, wearing what looked like giant diapers, with one leg wrapped around their necks, and cold, expressionless women in Jack LaLanne-style polyester unitards nonchalantly twisting, bending, and lifting themselves into torturous positions." Dillman successfully dispels myths like these, explaining how she slowly learned that yoga can be an uplifting, individual pursuit, and one that reduced her fatigue, boosted her flexibility, and may very well have saved her sanity. Her awe and respect for the art of yoga is palpable, making The Little Yoga Book a big pleasure to read.

Reader Reviews
This book is a great start for a person interested in yoga. The pictures are helpful. The descriptions great. It is a wonderful size for taking to the gym or anywhere. If you are interested in getting into yoga this book would be of great assistance. I have given a couple away as gifts so far.
