Yoga Revolution (eBook, ePUB)

Building a Practice of Courage and Compassion

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

It is time to address the dissonance between the often superficial way yoga is currently being practiced and the depth of yoga's ancient universal spiritual teachings. In this clarion call to action, Jivana Heyman offers a blueprint for cultivating a practice based in the ancient wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita and the Yoga Sutras in service of those experiencing exclusion and oppression. Heyman illuminates the yogic mandate of seva-or acts of service that see, care for, and uplift those around us-as a way to serve the world without losing your way. Through pose sequences, practice prompts such as "Embracing Failure," and stories from yoga teachers who are implementing seva in their classes, Heyman shows you what it means to serve, how to serve, and how to promote inclusivity through your service. Our job, says Heyman, is not to clear our mind through yoga practice, but rather to expand it so widely that it can embrace the entire universe.
