Yoga as Medicine offers a wealth of practical information, including how to: -Utilize yogic tools, including postures, breathing techniques, and meditation, for both prevention and healing of illness -Master the art of becoming more in tune with your body -Communicate more effectively with your doctor -Adopt therapeutic yoga practices as either an alternative or a complement to surgery and to expensive, sometimes dangerous medications -Practice safely Find an instructor and a style of yoga that are right for you. With twenty chapters devoted to the work of individual master teachers, including such well-known figures as Patricia Walden, John Friend, and Rodney Yee, Yoga as Medicine shows how these experts have applied the wisdom of this ancient holistic practice to twenty different conditions, ranging from arthritis to chronic fatigue, depression, heart disease, HIV/AIDS, infertility, insomnia, multiple sclerosis, and obesity. Defining yoga as "a systematic technology to improve the body, understand the mind, and free the spirit," Dr. McCall shows the way to a path that can truly alter your life.
