FOR A YOUTHFUL BODY AND A VIGOROUS MIND!

YOGA FOR PERFECT HEALTH gives you a unique approach to the hectic tempo, tensions and pressures of modern life. The exercises and postures will relax and rejuvenate both mind and body—and anyone from 7 to 70 can follow them without fear or alarm.

HATHA-YOGA, as described in this book, deals solely with the physical body. It is not a religion or a cult; it is a way to find better physical and mental well-being. Such famous people as Gloria Swanson, Yehudi Menuhin, Greta Garbo, Pandit Nehru, Marilyn Monroe and Elizabeth Arden are enthusiastic Yoga followers.

YOGA FOR PERFECT HEALTH is your guide to revitalized living 24 hours a day. Here are the tension-relaxing asanas or Yoga postures ... the marvelously effective breathing exercises ... the conceptions of balance and harmony . . . which have made Yoga the most famous and fascinating of the world's systems of self-improvement for perfect health.
