Functional Awareness and Yoga is an essential book for all who wishes to deepen their yoga practice and discover strategies to reduce strain or discomfort on the mat as well as in daily life. It is also an excellent book of introductory concepts in anatomy as applied to yoga required during a yoga teacher training.

Finally, each chapter contains a mindful practice section to help readers integrate anatomical imagery into daily life in order to release unnecessary tension, improve posture, and support ease of movement. The reflective practice of Functional Awareness® changes how one goes through simple daily tasks in living and demonstrates how these small simple shifts can have a profound effect on ease in action and resilience in movement both on and off the yoga mat. Guiding readers through the essentials in body alignment by providing engaging explorations in body/mind awareness, the book offers a pathway to improve resilience and balance in action., Functional Awareness and Yoga provides essential foundations in functional anatomy with applications to help improve specific postures in yoga. Each chapter contains a practice section that integrates anatomical principles into daily life in order to release unnecessary tension, improve posture, and recruit effort efficiently off the yoga mat.

    One of the finest sellers I have encountered on EBay. This seller has a high level of integrity, posts the most accurate photos and descriptions, and answers inquiries with alacrity. In addition, my dress arrived in flawless condition suite seller’s care in packing it. I was highly satisfied either all aspects of my transaction, and this seller is truly a positive asset to EBay’s clientele, and more importantly, reputation.
