Hatha Yoga: Now Available!
This is the final Atkinson (Ramacharaka) title on the subject of yoga, and is somewhat intermediate between the very hands on how-to content of his work on Raja Yoga, and the abstract and philosophical discussions in Gnani Yoga. It combines scientific new thought with calisthenics and breathing exercises meant to strengthen the body, improve overall health, and aid with focus and attention.
A few passages under the "breathing exercises" section are taken from a previously edited work, "Hindu Yogi Breathing Exercises" also by Ramacharaka.

A Series of Lessons in Raja Yoga: Now Available!
This fine work on Raja (or royal) yoga was created by Yogi Ramacharaka- a pseudonym (it is generally held) for William Atkinson. it's quite good, and much more hands-on and instructional than many works, which tend towards mere philosophy. The ultimate goal is increased awareness, especially of the self but also in general, and exercises in mental focus and attention. Atkinson wrote two other full length works on Yoga; specifically Gnani (or Jnani) and Hatha yoga. I am editing them as well.

How to Hold Circles for Developing Mediumship At Home: Now Available!
This short work is interesting for two reasons, neither of which has strictly to do with the stated main topic; it is all about how to develop the skill of mediumship, but the occultist has perhaps more use for it in its admonitions regarding self awareness and focus, and the literary buff will find it more of interest because it's an exceptionally good example of the specific kind of mystic literature proliferating at the time, in the wake of the east-to-the-west expansion of spiritual consciousness.
