This attractive overview answers the call for mainstream yoga publishing, presenting all the basics in a petite, giftable package for today's thriving yoga audience.
Yoga, the ancient mind-body practice, is booming in popularity, but there’s no attractively packaged overview for the mainstream enthusiast. Introducing The Little Book of Yoga. This petite hardcover presents all the basics for yoga lovers of every interest and skill level—beginner or advanced, committed or just curious.
The contents, broken into five sections for a customizable reading experience, include illustrated pose instruction and practical wisdom with rewards on and off the mat. Authoritative yet approachable, compact yet robust, it’s a timely offering for an increasingly relevant category. Fans will recognise it as the only yoga book they’ll ever need, and gift-givers will rejoice in finding the perfect present for the yogi in their life.

- A guide to today's popular yoga styles
- Overviews of yoga’s ancient roots, history, and spiritual foundations
- The basics of breathing and meditation, with exercises
