Book Description
This is a book about yoga, a holistic system for creating and sustaining balance and harmony on all the levels of our being: body, mind, emotions and spirit. It's about yoga's boundless potential for healing, for bringing about beneficial change on all these levels. I've called it The Healing Power of Yoga because throughout my life yoga has proved its transformative healing power, most profoundly in 1993, when I had breast cancer. That experience left me with a deeper trust in the power of yoga to help us to face our challenges and to heal ourselves. The book draws on my experience of yoga, and on my work with others who are dealing with a life-changing illness, to explore how the yoga practices of body movement, breathing, relaxation and meditation contribute to healing. The simple yet powerful techniques I describe can be practised by everyone, for inner strength and inner peace.

Book Description
Discover the benefits of removing toxic energy—from increased energy, clarity, and focus to a stronger sense of connection with the people and world around you Purification (saucha) is a central aim of all yogic practices—the first principle of self-discipline (niyama) in Patanjali’s eight-limbed approach—as the ancient yogis believed that impurities in our internal body adversely affect our state of mind and prevent the attainment of true contentment. And kriyas—little-known ancient yoga techniques designed to cleanse the body, mind, and emotions—have far-reaching relevance in today’s society of over-consumption. In The Cleansing Power of Yoga, Swami Saradananda presents six main chapters of kriyas and other cleansing techniques relating to our five senses and the mind, each with a specific aim: • Clarifying our vision in life (sight) • Enhancing our communication skills (sound) • Optimizing our energy and allowing us to breathe more deeply (smell) • Nourishing us and enhancing our capacity to ‘digest’ life (taste) • Enhancing our connection with others (touch) • Simplifying our life and filling it with sublime thoughts (mind) Each chapter includes at least one yoga pose as well as a breathing exercise, mudra, mantra, cleansing chakra visualization and any more specific techniques relevant to optimal well-being in that area. Also included are routines for a wide range of conditions—from physical complaints such as headaches or tinnitus, to emotional ones such as sadness, guilt and anger. Unique, informative, and featuring beautiful colorful illustrations, The Cleansing Power of Yoga gives readers all the holistic detox tools they need to feel overall better, lighter, happier, and healthier in their own skin.
