Why We Recommend This Book
This is a great gift to modern yoga teachers, making ancient yoga teachings on the subtle body clear and accessible while also carefully weaving them with Western anatomy. Tias Little takes us along on his fascinating study of Indian mythology, energy anatomy and the structural body. – Shelly
Book Quote
In the tradition of yoga, the subtle body suggests that which is fine, delicate, and infinitesimally small such as an atomic particle. It also speaks to the all-pervading spirit in the body as is one of the names of Siva. In this book I undertake an investigation of the subtle body, bringing together notions of the animating spirit that appear in traditional yoga sources with the anatomical body.
