Peace in Precision Town & Country, August 2009 Iyengar yoga is known for its meticulous attention to detail—but with that intensity, as this writer discovered, comes life-changing transformation.

Suck the anal mouth to the brain! Soften your sacro-iliac joint! Roll the trapezius up, and then down to your lower back!” It’s not easy, but somehow, in the intense concentration, I find a semblance of peace. By Yael H. Ballesteros > VIEW PDF
