Breath

As water purifies the skin, so the breath is capable of cleansing the whole being. As you reconnect with the breath through effortless observation and increased awareness, a door to the unexpected is opened. There are infinite discoveries and benefits to be experienced: a feeling of lightness, renewed energy, a greater calmness and clarity of mind. The breath begins to cleanse and purify at a deep level. This book offers insights and images, distilled from Sandra Sabatini's yoga classes, to help you learn how to listen to the breath and how to approach some simple positions. Whether you are a complete beginner or already practice some form of bodywork, these suggestions can guide you naturally to a deeper appreciation of the essence of yoga. This approach to yoga has been developed by the author from its roots in the classical Indian tradition of Iyengar.
