Publisher's Synopsis
Yoga, an ancient practice and meditation, has become increasingly popular in today's busy society. For many people, yoga provides a retreat from their chaotic and busy lives. This is true whether you're practicing downward facing dog posture on a mat in your bedroom, in an ashram in India, or even in New York City's Times Square. Yoga provides many other mental and physical benefits.
This Modern Yogini Book offers a collection of down-to-earth personal essays that demonstrates the many ways yoga has transformed the author's life off the mat and why the author keeps showing up every day for more. Not only has yoga improved her health and mental well-being, but the study of this ancient practice has also taught her to take personal responsibility for her actions and to focus on the bright side no matter what life hurls her direction.
Whether you're at the beginning of your yoga journey or if you're already a way down the path, you will find this book full of inspiring, encouraging, and often humorous lessons learned from someone who has walked the yoga walk, both as a teacher and dedicated practitioner, for two decades and counting.
