Accessible Yoga by Jivana Heyman
"A treasure trove . . . what Yoga, capital Y, is all about." -Donna Farhi"Nothing less than a gem." -Judith Lasater
"A vital tool." -Book Riot
This daring, visionary book revolutionizes yoga practice, making it truly accessible to everyone-in every body, at any age, and in any state of health
Yoga practice has so much to offer us physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. But many of us feel discouraged to practice because we see young, slim, flexible, well, and able-bodied people dominating yoga spaces. Yet, yoga is truly a practice for all-conferring enormous benefits to our overall well-being as our bodies change, age, and navigate various health challenges.
Jivana Heyman, founder of Accessible Yoga, views yoga as a basic human right-saying we all deserve to practice it in whatever state we find our body or mind. Accessible Yoga offers a simple, clear, and wonderfully adaptable practice for all people regardless of ability, health, and body type. Heyman has spent over twenty years sharing yoga with people of all abilities and backgrounds, and in this book, he shares his knowledge by breaking down complex yoga poses, breathing practices, meditation techniques, and yoga teachings into clearly understandable and practical tools we can use every day, regardless of our limitations or challenges.
