I liked that each chapter has a thorough explanation of each ailment's difficulties, how to overcome them, success stories of others who have been healed using yoga, and a list of things to do to improve health, nutrition, and general well-being in addition to yoga.

But the yoga poses themselves were not what I expected. They had different names than traditional yoga poses. Many of the poses included actions did not seem to flow well through each posture when I tried them.

And the poses did not appear to help my ailments. Other yoga poses that I've tried with a yoga therapist or in yoga classes have helped me much better than the ones described in this book.
For instance, the chapter on menstruation doesn't even mention half-moon pose or pigeon pose, both of which are known to aid in relieving menstrual cramps.

I wish there were more poses recommended in each chapter, instead of just the 3-5 poses for each ailment. There's not a lot of poses to choose from, and the most of the same ones are repeated in various chapters again and again.

I was disappointed in this book. I suppose I just expected more from it. But it's still a good guide to understanding how some yoga poses will help the body to heal.
