GEORG FEUERSTEIN - 'THE YOGA SUTRA OF PATANJALI'
 
This is "certainly one of the most profound and original contributions to the understanding of classical yoga".
 
Approximately two thousand years old, The Yoga Sutra of Patanjali is the landmark scripture of classical yoga. The translation and commentary provided by Georg Feuerstein are outstanding for their accessibility and their insight into the essential meaning of this ancient and complex text.
For anyone serious about yoga this book is a must - I read it frequently, and consider it to be excellent material for studying yoga.

VANDA SCARAVELLI - 'AWAKENING THE SPINE'


A book about "the stress-free new yoga that works with the body to restore health, vitality and energy".

For more than twenty years, Vanda Scaravelli has been transforming bodies and lives with her innovative approach to fitness through the proper alignment of the spine. Based on the natural principles of gravity and breath, her revolutionary yoga techniques for overall fitness listen to the body and mind, working with instead of against them to achieve dramatic results.

Scaravelli reminds readers, "if you are kind to your body, it will respond in an incredible way." 'Awakening the spine' offers a gentle way to achieve and maintain overall health and a naturally supple spine - at any age.

Vanda Scaravelli (1908-1999) was born in Florence, Italy. She studied for many years with B.K.S. Iyengar and trained teachers who teach her new form of yoga all over the world.

This is an outstanding book, a lovely, intelligent piece of work, that teaches us a lot about our minds, bodies and yoga, while retaining a certain innocent, intuitive quality. Highly recommended to anyone interested in the 'human condition'.
