Yogawoman
Description
Narrated by Annette Bening, this is the incredible story behind the global phenomenon that is yoga. Originally brought to the West from India by a lineage of male teachers, there's now a generation of strong, inspiring women leading the way. With unique access to these world-renowned yoga practitioners and leading health experts, Yogawoman reveals how yoga has utterly transformed the lives of thousands of people across the world. Not only can yoga make you happier, healthier, and more fulfilled, but it is also increasingly used in the treatment of conditions including cancer, infertility, heart disease, anxiety and depression. Filmed across nine countries, from the busy streets of Manhattan to the dusty slums of Kenya, from the golden beaches of Australia to the serene piazzas of Italy, Yogawoman uncovers, for the first time ever, the worldwide yoga revolution.
