The world-famous violinist Sir Yehudi Menuhin said about yoga that it is “a technique
ideally suited to prevent physical and mental illness and to protect the body
generally, developing an inevitable sense of self-reliance and assurance.” Yoga did not

for the past four decades, allowing him full expression of his great talent.
Yoga can do the same for anyone. Old or young. Male or female. Busy or super busy. In fact, yoga in one form or another is practiced by several million people today. It has been part of the kaleidoscope of our Western culture for over a century now and has proven incredibly effective in the maintenance of a sound body and mind and even the restoration of one’s health. This is why several progressive insurance companies are now including yoga in their alternative therapies coverage.
Yoga is a tradition that looks back upon at least 5,000 years of experience and experimentation. Although it was created in India in a different cultural environment, the basic insights and laws on which it is based are valid anywhere in the world. Of course, there is much more to yoga than its potency as a system of health care. But this is for you to discover.
In this book, you will be gently but persuasively guided into the beginnings of yoga practice. The authors serve as knowledgeable and cheerful friends, motivating you all the way. Within these pages you will find no lack of encouragement, and everything is explained step by step. So, please, take the leap into what you will discover to be a rewarding and healing experience.
