1,001 Pearls of Yoga Wisdom by Liz Lark |
|
|
|
 This compact book is a marvelous compendium of tips, quotes, and other gems of wisdom that cover the vastness of yoga and the exploration of its practice. The first 25-pages provides a general introduction to yoga followed by seven themed sections: Starting Your Day Well, Throughout Your Working Day, Time for Yourself, Relating to Others, In Times of Trouble, Winding Down, Ending Your Day Well.
The yoga postures, meditations, breathing exercises, mantras and mudras are interspersed with inspiring quotes from the classical texts of the Bhagavad Gita and the Upanishads, as well as from many modern Indian and Western teachers. The yogic practices range from basic to esoteric, and give this book depth as well as accessibility to all levels of yogic experience. The most enjoyable and unique facet of many of these yogic gems is how they reference other practices, creating a fascinating web of exploration and discovery throughout the book. This is a great book to have near your yoga mat or meditation cushion, and would be a great gift for anyone interested in the practice of yoga. Buy 1,001 Pearls of Yoga Wisdom by Liz Lark 2 Comments

I also highly recommend it. It has given me knowledge and inspiration. The sections on different yoga paths was especially helpful to me as a beginner. When I am finding it hard to make my way to the mat, it helps me by offering insights and wisdoms that propel me a few inches forward into a deeper understanding of my own path, which then inspires me to continue my practice. It is a lot of book for such a small price, too!

The challenge, and the opportunity, that Yoga presents to us is the possibility of breaking the conditioning cycle. We do this by becoming aware of the depth and pervasiveness of our patterns and, at the same time, by working to change them. And true transformation begins at the moment that we become aware of our actual condition. Gary Kraftsow |
