⭐ Reader reviews
Reader rating
While Robinson successfully identifies the parallels between yoga and witchcraft, this text may not suit readers seeking rigorous academic analysis or traditional, unmodified yogic philosophy. It is best approached as a practical guide for those already interested in syncretic spiritual practices rather than a historical survey. The expanded content and illustrations are lovely additions, yet the core premise relies heavily on the assumption that these disciplines naturally align. Readers expecting distinct, separate explorations of either field may find the integration too abstract or overly generalized. However, for witches looking to incorporate breathwork into their rituals, it serves as a charming, accessible entry point.
