'Iyengar knows what the body needs, and he's introduced to the West the Easterner's best path to health and well-being.'
Time Magazine

One of the world's masters of yoga invites both those new to yoga and those who are experienced practitioners on an inward journey designed to increase their physical health, emotional vitality, mental clarity, intellectual wisdom and spiritual bliss.

Light on Life conveys his discoveries from a lifetime of intensive yoga practice, study and teaching, and explains the role that yoga postures and breathing techniques play in our search for wholeness, the external and internal obstacles that keep us from progressing along the path, and how yoga can help us live in harmony with the world around us. Beyond the physical benefits that have drawn millions to the practice, Iyengar shows how yoga can improve our lives in many practical and life-changing ways.
