This is yoga for those who don't know their asana from their elbow. Bad back from sitting at your desk all day? Tech neck from looking at your phone too much?

Get rid of that stiff neck, achy back, and those tight hamstrings with fully photographed step-by-step fixes to help you feel flexible, relaxed, and twinge-free. From tension headaches, jaw pain, and rounded shoulders to pelvic floor weakness, runner's knee, and tight quads, this head-to-toe guide to the body will show you simple poses and quick stretches to ease your aching muscles. If traditional yoga has not worked out for you, or if you simply do not have the time or money for fancy gym memberships, this book will show you how to get a quick fix of yoga that will make a big difference to how you feel.
