This is one of the best audio presentations to come along in a while. McRae understands and makes clear the importance of proper alignment, the relationship between the physical and mental aspects of the postures, the many benefits of the postures, and the immediate and ultimate meaning of the practice in the context of daily life…Highly recommended for all levels of students. Richard Rosen, Yoga Journal, May/June 1998 This revolutionary yoga product is the first ever to utilize CD technology to create multiple customized yoga practices. The postures can be re-sequenced, repeated or skipped according to the practitioner's needs and preferences to create 100's of different yoga experiences. The CD comes with a 16 page booklet that includes sequencing guidelines, suggested sequences, and clear, detailed explanations of the pranayamas. The postures on the CD are accessible to beginners as well as challenging to those who have been practicing for years. The 17 postures include 3 inversions and 2 twists in addition to standing postures, back bends and forward bends. Both the physiological benefits and body/mind components of each posture are incorporated into the instruction. Includes a relaxation to an exquisite original musical piece from Mark Kelso's For God Alone.

Like the earlier volume, this program is highly recommended for all levels of students. Richard
Rosen Yoga Journal, October 2000 Capturing the spirit of yoga, Sadhana: The Daily Practice of Yoga, Volume 2 offers a technically solid hatha yoga practice grounded in the heart-opening tradition of Kripalu yoga. This new CD follows the same presentation style used on the best-selling Volume 1. Instruction is clear and precise, easy-to-follow, providing details of alignment and inspiration for the postures. The emphasis is on self-acceptance and the inner experience of the practice rather than on achieving perfect form. The compact disc includes instruction in the Ujayii Pranayma along with cues for using the powerful Dhristi (eye focus) and Mulabandha (root lock) techniques. The core practice of twenty-two postures is a carefully designed sequence of three backbends, four forward bends, one side bend, four spinal rotations, two inversions, and two balancing postures. One track features a flowing vinyasa of standing warrior postures that can be repeated to generate a "power yoga" experience. The overall result is an energizing, balanced, solid daily practice that is accessible to beginners as well as challenging for more advanced students. The CD is fully programmable, allowing for the design of multiple customized sequences. The 12-page booklet includes suggested practice sequences and detailed instruction in breathing techniques. Volume 2 is easily programmed in conjunction with Volume 1 or stands as a complete practice by itself. This perfectly produced CD can be used every day to create a fun, well-rounded, "feel good" experience.
