How Yoga Really Works

By Jax Pax

How Yoga Really Works will take the reader on a journey to discover the basic physiological and psychological functions of yoga. For the science-minded reader, this book explains, in simple language, how the claims to yoga's health benefits are scientifically valid and not just "spiritual woo-woo". From relaxation and anxiety reduction, to healthy weight management, to improving posture and slowing the ageing process, the reader will gain confidence in explaining the effects of yoga within just a couple hours of reading. How Yoga Really Works is suitable reading both for teachers, and for beginners, who are curious about yoga's potential as a healthy lifestyle booster.

"This is a fascinating read, which clearly, in simple terms, explains the physiological benefits of yoga."
