A subtle-body key to the postures - not another alignment manual. Most pose books organize by body part or by difficulty. The Keyed Āsana Reference organizes by the tradition's own logic: each of 108 āsanas - the full classical count, expanded from the 84 principal set - is mapped to the chakra it works, the prāṇa vāyu it moves, the nāḍī or granthi it opens, the bandha it engages, the kośa it touches, its place on the awakening arc, and its intent.

The book runs in both directions: look up a pose to see what it does, or name an outcome - calm, heat, opening, release - and let six cross-reference indices (by chakra, vāyu, intent, arc, therapeutic use, and classical source) pull the poses that serve it, ready to sequence. Organized into seven families - standing, seated seats, folds and twists, backbends, inversions, arm balances and core, restorative and supine - with full-color figures marking each pose's chakra activation and the direction of its prāṇa.

Cross-referenced to the Teaching Yoga manuals and 112 Meditations for the Yoga Room. Written for teachers building a sequence with intention, and for practitioners who want to know not just how a pose looks, but what it's for. Part of The Essential Way.
