In 30 Essential Yoga Poses, Judith Lasater draws on her wealth of yoga practice and teaching experience, as well as her training as a physical therapist, to present this comprehensive guide for beginning students and their teachers. 

Drawing on her experiences as a mother of three, a long-time yoga teacher, and a physical therapist, Judith Lasater presents easy-to-follow programs of yoga poses and breathing techniques to help a woman stay flexible and healthy throughout pregnancy and the postpartum period. 

If you think that you have to excape to a cave in the Himalayas to find the enlightenment that yoga promises, think again.  In Living Your Yoga, Judith Lasater stretches the meaning of yoga beyond its familiar poses and breathing techniques to include the events of daily life -- all of them -- as practice.

Using the time-honored wisdom of the Yoga Sutra and the Bhagavad Gita to steer the course, she serves up off-the-mat practices to guide you in deepening your relationships with yourself, your family and friends, and the world around you.  Inspiring and practical, she blends her heartfelt knowledge of an ancient tradition with her life experiences as a daughter, sister, wife, mother, friend, and yoga teacher and practitioner.  The result: a new yoga that beckons you to find the spiritual in everyday life.
