Im Yoga vereinen sich innere Ruhe und Ausgeglichenheit mit einem starken, flexiblen Körper. Die Asanas kräftigen und lockern die Muskeln, entspannen den Geist und stärken die Konzentrationsfähigkeit. Dabei kann bereits die kleinste Haltungsänderung große Auswirkungen haben, denn ein Muskel arbeitet niemals isoliert, sondern immer in einem komplexen Bewegungssystem. Wie genau das funktioniert und wie Wirbelsäule, Atmung, Nervensystem und Körperhaltung zusammenhängen, wird in dieser dritten, vollständig überarbeiteten und erweiterten Ausgabe detailliert und anschaulich erklärt. Gemeinsam mit der Bewegungstherapeutin Amy Matthews hat der anerkannte Yogaexperte Leslie Kaminoff in seinem Klassiker Yoga-Anatomie erstmals die Auswirkung der einzelnen Asanas auf die Muskelgruppen, Gelenke und Organe für Sie zusammengefasst sowie die Bedeutung der jeweils passenden Atemtechniken erläutert. Neben aktualisierten Informationen liefern Ihnen zwei zusätzliche Kapitel noch mehr Wissen rund um die wichtigsten Haltungen, wobei nun auch die besondere Rolle des Nervensystems im Yoga betrachtet wird. Auch in dieser Ausgabe werden über 150 Asanas durch exakte anatomische Illustrationen so detailgenau beschrieben, wie es anhand von Fotos niemals möglich wäre. Sie erhalten damit – egal, ob Einsteiger oder Profi – ein völlig neues Verständnis über die positive Wirkung von Yoga.
