Internationally renowned yoga instructor Rodney Yee is the host of more than 17 bestselling yoga videos. In Moving Toward Balance, Yee outlines an 8-week program of basic yoga postures, meditation, and breath awareness intended to lead practitioners toward balance-physical, emotional, and psychological. Each lesson is illustrated with full-color photographs and is laid out in sequential order, so there is no need to flip back and forth to put together a practice session. And each pose is shown with variations to accommodate different levels of strength and flexibility. At the core of Moving Toward Balance, and what distinguishes it from other yoga books on the market, is its emphasis on a home practice, enabling readers to focus on what works best for their own body without the distraction of the classroom. In addition, both beginner and advance practitioners will appreciate Yee's advice on altering or extending the basic practice to address such specific concerns as back pain, stress, and emotional problems.
