Millions of readers adore Christopher Paolini's Inheritance Cycle: its earnest hero, its breathtaking battles and, of course, its awe-inspiring dragon Saphira. But there's so much more to the series than meets the eye—and Secrets of the Dragon Riders, edited by today's second hottest dragon-writer James A. Owen, shows readers what they're missing. Why might Roran be the real hero of the Inheritance Cycle? What does Paolini's writing have in common with role-play games and modern action films? Are teenage writers judged more harshly than their adult counterparts? The YA authors in Secrets of the Dragon Riders—some of them no older than Paolini when he wrote Eragon—each take on a different aspect of the series to engage and entertain Paolini fans.

Breathe Magic Into Your Yoga Practice A feeling of freedom, inner peace, feeling good in your body, clarity of mind-these are some of the things yoga can bring when you integrate its practices into your daily life. This beautifully illustrated book invites you to infuse the wisdom and tools of yoga with the soaring capabilities of your imagination, going beyond the mundane and into the realm of the extraordinary. What does yoga have to do with dragons? Well, in the symbolic sense, dragons can represent the energy of the breath, opening to its nourishing current like the spreading of wings. The movement of asana (yoga postures) on your mat can be like riding a dragon, requiring skill, strength, focus and courage. Dragons are wisdom-keepers, and yoga's wisdom is seemingly infinite. And the mystical energy of Kundalini-the rising serpent-could easily be represented by a dragon as well. Perhaps you even believe in dragons. Many people do, you know. Dragons have long symbolized power and transformation. To claim your power is to embrace your entire self, as well as the mission or purpose of your life. This book merges the realms of fantasy and reality, offering you a very readable yet incredibly detailed journey through the study of yoga.

When it comes to the physical practice of yoga, you'll find hundreds of photos and exceptional alignment instruction.

You are invited to do the poses that work for your body and just look at the pretty pictures if it isn't something you want to do right now. Beginners can focus on the single pose descriptions, and build simple sequences from the full ones offered. For the advanced and intermediate practitioners, you'll find creative and engaging sequences that will challenge you in the most delightful way Here is a Preview of What You Will Receive: Friendly, accessible instruction that allows you to start doing yoga right awayEasy to understand explanations of yoga's philosophical foundations, with encouragement to take what works for you and let the rest go, Step-by-step alignment cues to some of yoga's most fundamental (and fun) poses, Comprehensive yoga asana sequences that you can tailor to your own level of practice, A wealth of meditations and affirmations that gently but powerfully bring you a sense of clarity and calm, Energy healing techniques and visualizations, Step-by-step instruction on breathing practices (pranayama), A sense of personal empowerment, and much, much more Check Out What Others Are Saying . . .
