To Life!: Yoga With Priscilla Patrick

Once upon a time Priscilla Patrick thought Yoga involved "gaunt beings twisting their bodies in strange contortions, chanting endlessly and eventually becoming distant and unco9mmunicative," But no more. The skeptic Priscilla has become an ardent practitioner and teacher of Hatha Yoga, both in person and as the star of a national television series. As she approaches her fortieth birthday, the author of To Life! Yoga with Priscilla Patrick finds herself not only 30 pounds lighter, but also in prime physical condition and fully equipped to deal with the stresses of everyday life. She owes it all, she admits, to Yoga. Remember her own prejudice, Priscilla Patrick has written a Yoga manual that is designed for "the middle-of-the-road American" - a simple, non-mystical approach that can be used by Yoga students of every size, age and condition. The book includes clear and easy directions for over 50 Yoga postures, illustrated with more than 150 photos, plus Priscilla's personal advice for happier, healthier living, from low-cal recipes and other dieting tips to hints on dealing with life's everyday problems. The title of the book (and the TV series) is no accident. In two words, it sums up the Priscilla Patrick approach, which is nothing less than a toast To Life!, ISBN13: 9780943274003 ISBN10: 0943274001 Material Type: paperback
