Produktbeschreibung

Yoga continues to be a growth industry with an estimated thirty million people in North America now practicing either privately or in most cases with a class. Though the yoga market is fractured by the great number of competing schools and philosophies, what they all have in common is the ending of the session with a period of relaxation coupled with inspiring readings.

Soul to Soul fills just this need with a beautiful collection of 150 inspiring perfect-length readings plus tens of quotes that are just right for ending a yoga class or private session. Honoring many spiritual traditions, it's the perfect teaching tool or gift for yoga teachers and practitioners, or for anyone seeking uplifting messages for any occasion. Includes writing by Swami Kripalu, Thich Nhat Hanh, Deepak Chopra, Eckart Tolle, H.H the Dalai Lama, Don Miguel Ruiz, quotes from Rumi, Hafiz, Gandhi, Meister Eckart, Lao Tzu, as well as selections from the Bhagavad Gita, and the Yoga Sutras of Pantajali. Unlike most books intended for yoga teachers, Soul to Soul has strong appeal to teachers in nearly any tradition, and to a wider range of their students.

John Mundahl has been a yoga teacher and practitioner for over thirty-six years. He was a resident at the original Kripalu Yoga Ashram in Sumneytown, Pennsylvania, from 19771981, the four years of Swami Kripalu's remarkable stay. He is the author of twelve books, including From the Heart of the Lotus, the Teaching Stories of Swami Kripalu. He lives in St. Peter, Minnesota.
