Reviews of Yoga From the Heart:

"While Andiappan's practice may be unattainable for many readers, his attitude of delight and discovery in the body's potential is accessible to all. In Yoga from the Heart, Andiappan has created an album of inspiration for yogis of all practices and levels." - Yoga Journal - USA

"While yoga is of course, about much more than simply the physical asanas, this book is a stark exhibition of what can be achieved when physical, mental and spiritual practices come together." - Asia Spa Magazine - Hong Kong

This book is comparable to the "Light on Yoga" but with the names of the asanas only, the picture speaks for themselves. - Yogakalai - India
