THE BLACK & WHITE EDITION: THE ACCESSIBLE GUIDE TO YOGA'S INNER POWER. This is the Black & White edition of "The Book of Mudras, Bandhas & Marmas," offering the complete, high-definition visual guide to yoga's energetic systems at a more accessible price point.
Stop "doing" yoga and start feeling its power.
You've mastered the poses. You know how to move your body. But if you've ever wondered why a simple hand gesture can quiet your mind in seconds-or how seasoned yogis generate an "inner fire" on command-you are ready for the next layer.
This is where yoga stops being an exercise and starts becoming alive.
Welcome to Volume 2: The Book of Mudras, Bandhas & Marmas-the definitive guide to yoga's healing gestures, energy locks, and vital points. As the second installment in the landmark 12-volume series, The Grand Book of Yoga, this manual is built for those who want to feel what is happening inside them, not just go through the motions.
The Problem: Most "Energy" Books Leave You Guessing. Most guides on Mudras and Marmas are filled with vague descriptions and zero visuals. You're left wondering if your finger is in the right place or if you're engaging the right muscle.
This book fixes that.
What Makes This Volume Different? This is a high-definition visual masterclass. It is heavily packed with high-quality, high-contrast photographs that show you exactly where to place your fingers, how to engage each lock, and what each gesture should actually look like. No ambiguity. No guesswork. Just pure, actionable wisdom in a clear, easy-to-follow layout.
Inside, you will discover:
-
90+ Mudras: Hand and head gestures that act like circuit breakers for your nervous system. From "heart saviors" to allergy relief and deep meditative absorption.
-
The 8 Bandhas: The "power switches" of yoga. Learn to engage these internal locks properly to make arm balances lighter and your spine more supported.
-
Marma Chikitsa: The "secret" science of 107 vital junctions where your physical and energetic bodies meet. Learn exactly where to touch, press, and breathe to release decades of stored tension.
Who is this for?
-
Yoga Teachers who want to offer depth beyond simple physical cues.
-
Practitioners who have hit a plateau and know there is more to the practice than stretching.
-
Seekers dealing with stress, fatigue, or chronic tension who want a practical, visual tool for self-healing.
