Book Reviews of Yin Yoga
Book Review: lifetime of yoga
Summary: 5 Stars
I started yoga over 20 years ago for an injury. Yoga was like this, slow, calm and peaceful. I have done starter level yoga for all these years, and have watched yoga become "Power, Hot, Strength" and many other unfun things. New yoga requires the perfect body type and hip alinment.
So I am back to YIN Basics, my hip pain is under control again. In two weeks I can get twice as deep into the postures, pain relief now lasts 24 hours. I like being a perpetual beginner, and I am really enjoying YIN yoga.
If you do not have a yoga block, I suggest you get one.I highly recommend this and Yamura Body Rolling if you interest is pain control, increased flexability, not ultra yoga.
Book Review: Very Helpful Book
Summary: 5 Stars
Yin yoga has been a wonderful addition to my practice. Our western lives are so yang-based and it feels so good to give your body permission to hold these poses for 3-5 minutes each...like a series of mini-meditations. This book is very helpful, including instructions on how to get into the poses as well as suggested sequences. I would highly recommend this book to anyone beginning a yin practice.
This book includes a large number of poses (plenty for anyone beginning their yin practice), however, it does not include all yin posees I have seen described in other sources. It hits all of the main ones and then some, though.
Book Review: Yin Yoga Stretches more than tissue
Summary: 5 Stars
I took a Yin Yoga workshop from Sarah Powers and that's how I came to connect with Paul Grilley's book. I use this in my yoga classes and after spending the summer working on my "yin" yoga I have noticed a marked increase in my flexibility. This book is full of very valuable information. Paul covers all the bases! I have a number of students wanting to purchase this book. You won't be disappointed with this book. You can read it ina couple of hours but will find you keep refering back to it because there is so much information in it.Book Review: Great works come in small packages
Summary: 5 Stars
Paul Grilley's book, Yin Yoga, is absolutely straightforward, simple, and effective. As a long-time practitioner of yoga, exercise, and instructor of movement, Paul struck a perfect balance between background and context on the one hand, and practical how-to on the other. I recommend this book wholeheartedly to anyone with a body and a mind, as adding the Yin-perspective into one's thoughts is a fundamental shift in being able to take care of one's body and life.Book Review: Great book!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great book for anyone wanting to learn or do Yin Yoga. The poses are usually held a little longer but it has many benefits and feels great on your body! The book explains Yin Yoga practice and has a lot of great information! There are sample routines to help get you started! Each pose has photos that show you how to do the pose as well as a description that is very easy to understand and explains how to carry out the pose! This book is wonderful!
