Book Description
From the Jacket:

The hectic pace of urban life takes its toll of the city-dweller. Both his general health and mental well-being suffer as a result of the strain. This practical book explains in detail the systems of the human body and the techniques of Yoga. The authors show in a step by fashion how it is possible to use Yoga to combat the tensions of a fast paced life and achieve physical and mental tranquility. A special chapter on Yoga and Heart breaks new ground in using the ancient art of Yoga to combat coronary ailments - the most notorious killer in our times.
