Yoga Practice Essentials, covers many of the topics taught in Yoga Teacher Training programs. The chapter on anatomy and physiology offers a functional overview of the muscular, skeletal, respiratory, cardiovascular, digestive, and nervous systems and explores how to increase the health of these systems with yoga practice. Additionally, the section on nutrition and whole food plant based diet explains how to incorporate healthful, plant based meals that increase your immunity into your lifestyle.

I have also included access to free downloadable audio recordings of two guided meditations and a yoga practice class. (Please send an email request to the email address listed inside the book - thank you!)
