The New Yoga: From Cults and Dogma to Science and Sanity!

 

Where did most of your yoga moves come from? A guru from the annals of Indian folklore? Or are those "thousand-year-old poses" really a twentieth century invention hidden behind a veil of tall stories? Were they based on movement science-or cooked-up creations with a big pinch of folklore? The New Yoga takes a brutally hard look at these critical questions. It proposes six radical steps to strip away the nonsense and provide common-sense yoga for the future, based on movement science:

 

- Stretching is not the primary goal. Really? Yes. More important are ten other benefits including two new buzzwords, proprioception and interoception.

- Mobility tops flexibility. Focus on better control over a safe range of movement.

- "Practice and all is coming." Not so! Despite the famous guru's oft quotes words, we may never achieve certain poses. Trying will lead to injury.

- Avoid repetitive stress and encourage brain health with frequent and varying moves on and off the mat.

- 'Pretzels' pushing extreme flexibility lead to injury and misplaced envy. Hyper-mobility is not something to envy; it's sad.

- Don't throw the baby out with the bath water. Maintain what works but question all for good evidence.

Rob Walker quotes a wide range of experts and speaks from his own 20-year yoga teacher-training experience. He dumps accepted dogma behind much current teaching and brings a fresh sparkle of evidence and science to twenty-first century yoga.

Smells amazing
I recently stayed at The Westin Anaheim and found I really loved their bathing line. I wanted to purchase it and bring it back with me but had absolutely no room in my luggage. I was very pleased to see I could buy it on Amazon. My husband’s bathroom has always been very sparse and kind of thrown together with random shampoos and body washes so I used this bundle to start transforming it into a nicer, better smelling bathroom that appears more cohesive and appealing. It absolutely worked and I also love how he smells after showering now! He loves that I’m all over him because he smells so nice! The scent of the products is very relaxing.

Great smell minimal lather
These were very expensive and I would hope that they would be very high-end products. They smell wonderful, but neither the shampoo nor the body wash is big on the lather, and you tend to use more than you probably should. The lotion is nice and smells nice as well. I have not yet used the soap disks. I do think the price point is a bit ridiculous for the amount of product you get, but I guess if you’re looking for the smell, then it is worth it.
