Pros & Cons
Pros
It is how we customarily move through the world that really makes a difference. I know my career trajectory depends on my ability to do such physical work. The rest is up to you your persistence and, commitment.
This book is superbly written with great images to clarify every point. Negative reviews of this book are preposterous, because it is foolish to expect a miracle from a text-book. The book has lots of pictures including pictures of children and people... Read More
Gokhale method is a book about how to sit, stand, lie down, and walk with posture that maximises our spinal and muscular strengths and minimises degenerative harmful positions.
This is probably because locking the knees means you don't have to balance as much. The resulting body architecture/structure provides more space for unimpinged nerve energy and circulation flow.
The book is phenomenal, but the instructor greatly improved my technique and confidence. I find this book supremely well crafted and useful. There are the lessons in the book and then there are tweaks for your personal situation.
Cons
Esther gokhale is a con-person who ripped me off for the cost of the class (expensive) and this book. The physics are just not realistic. Esther has some strong delusions about biomechanics and physics.
It is so amateurish, it's unbelievable. Buy at your peril. But the content is ultimately unhelpful.
If you have low back pain and the x-ray shows a disc 'abnormality', the doctor says, lookee here, your x-rays shows there's a disc problem in your low back.

Price
I would pay 100 times the cost of this book for the exceptional perspective it has provided me over the last 10 years
My physical therapist sells this book at cost she believes in it so much
I can honestly say that if this book cost 1000 i would consider it money well spent
Do yourself a favor and toss twenty dollars at this book see how it goes

The gokhale method as presented here did help me find a way to better posture

I didnt do it completely in isolation also saw a chiropractor a few times for immediate relief and have also been using lumbar support which the book doesnt exactly recommend but i mostly credit my pain free back to the steps particularly the sitting lying and standing advice
