I bought this book after watching her demonstrations in YouTube. However, the book is mainly about General Yoga, focusing on face exercise just on the first 40 pages out of 212 of the book.
It is good, but it would be much better to acquire an instructional on face exercises video with better and more expanded explanation for better results.

This book is not primarily about face muscle exercises. It is, however, about exercises that will help your face - and particularly your neck. The approach is holistic, emphasizing how attitude, thoughts, overall health, energy, stress and other factors all come together to build a person's facial features. The one exercise called "budha face" is worth the whole book in my opinion. The author has a philosophy of facial beauty and a system for cultivating it. I own a few different books on this subject: one that uses acupressure, one that strengthens face muscles and this one that emphasizes a whole-body approach. I find that each contributes in its own way. The yoga poses in this book are selected for their capacity to cleanse, stimulate and stretch in such a way as to benefit the face and neck regions. I think they're great. The reason I don't give this book 5 stars is that the section on specific exercises for the face is not comprehensive enough. I think that other books do a better job on facial muscle exercises. However, overall, this book is very helpful.
