I found this book to be useful in my journey to learn more about chakras and build my yoga practice. I would recommend to others who are on a similar journey.

I enjoyed "Essential Chakra Yoga". This is a wonderful book to introduce you to using yoga to open and enhance your chakras. I think this would be a good book to improve one's yoga practice.

I would like to thank Netgalley and the Publisher for providing me with a copy free of charge. This is my honest and unbiased opinion of it.

As a yoga teacher myself I found I enjoyed see how the author became so interested in the Chakras, not just how they pertain to a yoga practice in general but how she, herself, came to know them and use them thought her daily life. I felt much of what she talks about in the book to be what I would say my students during a class... especially when there are new students who may not yet be familiar with yoga or chakras.

Her explanations on each chakra was lovely and able to grasp even to someone who might be new to chakras. She gives an in depth but easy to understand outline of each chakra. The thing I liked best about this book was she gives small exercises to practice throughout and larger poses to practice once she delves deeper into each chakra throughout the rest of the book. This is definitely a book I’ll be keeping on my bookshelves and recommending to people who seem to want to take a deeper dive into the practices of chakras.
