Review:
Firstly thank you to Random Things Book Tours, Quadrant Books and Miranda Mattig Kumar for having me on this tour and for sending me a copy of the book to review.
Now I have to admit that I love the idea of doing yoga but I'm so bad at keeping up with a yoga practice! So I do love a book that I can use to try and keep one going. But I do have to say this was a little more than that, it's got a really thorough explanation of what yoga is, to begin with, and before we even get to any yoga poses she explains all about human anatomy and physiology. And it's a nicely-thought-out explanation, we get very medical textbook-like images combined with easy-to-follow explanations, and seemingly very minimal medical jargon which makes it a much easier read. Each section is really well written, you can tell she knows her subject very well, and I haven't yet but I will use the QR code to watch some of her video tutorials. That said I loved how detailed the description of each of the poses were and that it had Alterations and modifications for each one so you could fit your own abilities.
Its a book I defiantly look forward to trying yoga from, and I might even manage to stick with it this time!
