Description

Yoga: Critical Alignment is an innovative, illustrated guide to new
practices that release the tension held in the body to create a new
balanced alignment. In yoga, even seasoned practitioners have the habit of
working the body from the surface layers of muscle. The muscles are linked
to will power and discipline, and working hard on the mat can create
unhealthy strain in the body. Author Gert van Leeuwen teaches his unique
sequences of standing postures, inversions, forward bends, backbends,
twists, and pranayama to get you to optimal alignment and ease. Each
thoughtfully sequenced practice is meticulously illustrated so that you can
keep this book at your side while you practice. Core topics include: • The
role of the skeleton in movement chains and sequences • How to enhance the
body's mobility and deepen body awareness • Cultivating a meditation and
pranayama practice • Instructions and refinement: inversions, standing
postures, forward bends, backbends, twists, seated postures • Planning
lessons for a home practice or a studio environment
