Ananda Yoga for Higher Awareness was first published by Swami KriyAnanda in the 1960s to raise the Awareness of Yoga practitioners and to offer them a new dimension to their practice: the use of a positive affirmation to go with each pose. - Become aware of the energy flows in your body and their effects on your attitudes and outlook - Achieve harmony of body, mind, and soul - Cultivate attitudes of willingness, appreciation, kindness, and joy - Enjoy a greater sense of radiant health and well-being - Increase your self-control - Achieve a richer, more harmonious emotional life - Deepen your inner awareness.
Illustrated with photographs of the postures, this authentic "Awareness approach" adds an important dimension for advanced practitioners, while providing an excellent foundation for beginners.
Kriyananda\'s inspiring affirmations and clearly written instructions show you how to attune yourself to the consciousness of each pose, so that each Yoga posture becomes a doorway to life-affirming attitudes, clarity of understanding, and an increasingly centered and uplifted awareness.
THIS UNIQUE CLASSIC teaches hatha Yoga as it was originally intended: as a way to uplift your consciousness and aid your spiritual development.
His approach is in the tradition of the ancient hatha Yoga and of his own guru, the great Indian master Paramhansa Yogananda, author of the most widely read and respected of all books on yoga, Autobiography of a Yogi .
KriyAnanda brings the Yoga science back to its central focus as an integral part of the meditative science of Raja Yoga.
If you are seeking alignment instructions for Yoga postures, we highly recommend Spiritual Yoga by Gyandev McCord, for which this book is a valuable companion title.
This book does not offer complete detailed instruction in physical alignment for assuming each pose.
This classic Yoga guide can be useful for hatha yogis (and especially for those who practice Ananda Yoga (R) ) as a resource for deepening their understanding of the original, spiritual approach to Yoga postures, as well as Swami KriyAnanda \'s inspiration in creating the popular branch of hatha Yoga known as Ananda Yoga (R) .
