Download or read book Light on Life written by B.K.S. Iyengar and published by Rodale Books. This book was released on 2006-09-19 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: B.K.S. Iyengar--hailed as "the Michelangelo of yoga" (BBC) and considered by many to be one of the most important yoga masters--has spent much of his life introducing the modern world to the ancient practice of yoga. Yoga's popularity is soaring, but its widespread acceptance as an exercise for physical fitness and the recognition of its health benefits have not been matched by an understanding of the emotional, intellectual, and spiritual development that the yogic tradition can also offer. In Light on Life, B.K.S. Iyengar brings readers this new and more complete understanding of the yogic journey. Here Iyengar explores the yogic goal to integrate the different parts of the self (body, emotions, mind, and soul), the role that the yoga postures and breathing techniques play in our search for wholeness, the external and internal obstacles that keep us from progressing along the path, and how yoga can transform our lives and help us to live in harmony with the world around us. For the first time, Iyengar uses stories from his own life, humor, and examples from modern culture to illustrate the profound gifts that yoga offers. Written with the depth of this sage's great wisdom, Light on Life is the culmination of a master's spiritual genius, a treasured companion to his seminal Light on Yoga.
Download or read book Iyengar Yoga written by Judy Smith and published by Lorenz Books. This book was released on 2015-04-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Iyengar yoga focuses on correct alignment of the body so that it can develop harmoniously and anatomically perfect. If the student practices with intelligence and awareness, there is little chance of injury or pain. As all bodies are different and people have specific weaknesses and difficulties, Iyengar yoga makes use of props to help students achieve the best possible poses within their limited capacity. The Iyengar method, which is renowned for its precision and attention to detail, involves the practice of asanas (postures) and pranayama (breathing). Because of the intense concentration required to position parts of the body, both skeletally and muscularly, the mind becomes focused and sharp, and this results in a form of "meditation in motion." Practitioners strive for this state of total physical awareness, mental clarity and ultimate serenity.

Book excerpt: Do you want to improve the overall functioning of your body--from the circulatory and lymphatic systems to the nervous system and digestion? Do you want a practice that emphasizes precision and alignment and gives preference to correct movement over quantity? Are you looking for a beginner's yoga practice that is adaptable to any body size or age? Do you want to reach the inner Koshas (layers) of mind, energy, and spirit outside the physical body to achieve vitality, clarity, and calmness? Do you want a yoga practice that allows a ton of props? If so, Iyengar Yoga is what you need. Yoga's origin can be traced back to more than 5,000 years ago, but some researchers believe that yoga may be up to 10,000 years old. The word 'Yoga' first appeared in the oldest sacred texts, the Rig Veda, and is derived from the Sanskrit root "Yuj" which means to unite. According to the Yoga Scriptures, the practice of yoga leads an individual to a union of consciousness with that of universal consciousness. It eventually leads to a great harmony between the human mind and body, man and nature. I've made a complete series on all 10 types of yoga. This is Iyengar Yoga; others are also available! Iyengar Yoga has its origin in India, though it is universal. Iyengar Yoga is for everyone. Iyengar Yoga is named after and founded by B.K.S. Iyengar, a direct disciple of T. Krishnamacharya. Iyengar yoga derives straight from the most ancient Hatha Yoga practice, but it has progressed into a very specific and clear method that is easily understood by modern practitioners. It is deeply embedded in the traditional eight limbs of yoga laid out by Patanjali in his famous treatise, The Yoga Sutras. The Iyengar practice stresses the development of self-knowledge mainly through Asanas (yoga postures) and Pranayamas (yogic breathing). Attention is paid to the cultivation of alignment, stability, strength, endurance, flexibility, focus, and awareness. Iyengar Yoga provides a straightforward, grounded route to the holistic well-being of body, mind, and soul. It is characterized by care and precision; it is systematic intelligence of the mind, body, and soul. It is perfect for studying the subtleties of the correct alignment of all ages and skills. It helps you become more mindful and self-conscious, both on and off your mat. This yoga style is an effective and sophisticated technique that can be practiced at all stages in life. The advantages are far-reaching and can aid the practitioner in every area of daily life. Improvements in strength, flexibility, athletic conditioning, general activity, and stance are very common, as are noticeable improvements in vitality and mental clarity.
