Book Summary
In this first-of-its-kind guide to "Jewish yoga, " Steven Rapp gracefully blends aspects of hatha yoga, the shapes of the Hebrew letters, physical fitness, and spiritual wellness to connect yoga practice with Jewish spiritual life -- and vice versa. This easy-to-read, easy-to-understand guide shows how anyone can incorporate yoga into their life. Drawing on the sacred texts of Judaism, made even more relevant by Rapp's poetic insights, Aleph-Bet Yoga introduces a new way for people to relate to spirituality -- through the shapes of the Hebrew letters -- by connecting us to them physically through yoga technique. Includes easy-to-follow instructions, black-and-white photographs showing each yoga pose, the relationship of the Hebrew letter yoga pose to its equivalent hatha yoga pose, and a list of resources for further information.
