Yoga Vacations Special offer: More and more people are seeking vacations that are relaxing rather than chaotic, that help them renew their sense of health rather than keep them running frantically from sight to sight. Yoga Vacations highlights over 100 different vacation centers and retreats for both the beginner and advanced yoga practitioner. It includes detailed, thoughtfully written entries providing information on teachers' styles and philosophies, recommended levels of experience, and activities and services, as well as the basics on accommodations, meals, and fees. The author, a 25-year yoga instructor, makes a distinction between yoga vacations and retreats to help readers customize their perfect getaway. Some destinations are strictly retreats - places for quiet, in-depth yoga study - while the vacation settings listed allow free time for nearby shopping and sightseeing. “If you are wondering which yoga retreat to attend check out the book. This book lists more than 100 different yoga vacations all over the world and gives information on accommodations, philosophy of teacher, style of yoga, criteria for students, meals, description of yoga room, sample daily schedule, cost of retreat and more. Color & black & white photos are included. Enjoy!” —Annalisa Reviews

Stretch and Surrender Special offer: This unique yoga manual combines hatha yoga with the 12-step recovery process. Its author, a hatha yoga teacher and "adult child of an alcoholic", found that the spiritual aspects of yoga gave her no tools for confronting her codependency issues, while 12-step meetings failed to address the physical aspects of her recovery. In Stretch and Surrender, she "synthesizes the best healing aspects of both systems." She provides instructions and photographs for an assortment of basic yoga poses, combining each one with an affirmation to be contemplated while holding the pose. |
