- breathing exercises (Pranayama)
- meditation

These practices can help you cultivate inner peace, physical wellbeing, and clarity of mind. Though the theme of this training is light-hearted, subjects are covered extensively.

What does yoga have to do with dragons? In the symbolic sense, dragons can represent the energy of the breath. Opening to its nourishing current is like spreading 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.
Perhaps you even believe in dragons. Many people do, you know. Dragons have long symbolized power and transformation. To be a Dragon Rider is to claim your power and embrace your personal purpose of your life. What is that purpose? It's up to you to find out.
When it comes to the physical practice of yoga, you'll find hundreds of photos and detailed alignment instruction. As with the entire book, the asana section is designed so you can self-customize. You can do the poses that work for your body, and skip anything that isn't right for you right now. Beginners can focus on the single pose descriptions, and build simple sequences. For the advanced and intermediate practitioners, you'll find creative and engaging sequences that will challenge you in the most delightful way!
Enjoy this special edition of Yoga for Dragon Riders with a new bonus practice!
