Yoga & Jyotish

Book excerpt: This unique book shows how you can tailor your yoga practice based on your personal horoscope. We are living in a world where so many things have a one-size-fits-all approach. There is a need to connect with our unique individual being on a deeper level. This applies to our yoga practice as well. In order for our sādhanā (spiritual practice) to be more effective, we first need to understand our kārmic journey, who we really are, our mental and physical make up, and our calling or dharma in life. Jyotish (Vedic astrology) is a wonderful science which can answer some of these questions for us. Once we know more about ourselves through the lens of our birth chart (horoscope), it becomes easier to find a Yoga practice (Āsana, meditation style etc) that naturally supports our journey in this life, a practice that is conducive to our unique being. We are all unique. Our Yoga practice should also be. Jyotish can help us individualize our Yoga practice. Our sincere hope is that this book will help you do that.
