Yoga Therapy: Strong and Healthy: The Ryoho Way [Paperback]

Yoga sets out to unite the three levels of the human being, spirit, mind and body, into one healthy, graceful form—you! If our minds are disturbed we never feel well. If our bodies are sick or diseased we often feel unwell and if the spirit is not inspired we cannot be well, Yoga fixes it all; simply, efficiently and effectively. People often believe illness is to be expected, that pain is part of life and degeneration is part of aging—but the body wants to heal itself. If you cut your finger, it heals. If you sprain your ankle, it heals. Why do we fail to understand that the body as a whole can heal itself with the right approach? This book sets out which exercises and simple diet tips you can apply to your life to become clearer, stronger and more pain-free every day; from revving up your attitude and energy to toning your bottom, perfecting your posture, the easy-way to weight loss, and sorting out your insomnia, moods, period pain and hot flashes for good. This book will not only give you back your freedom of movement but also innate confidence in your power and ability to take care of yourself. The results are not temporary or superficial and with effort and persistence we can all live a pain-free life.
