Book Description
"How do you live your yoga practice? Start small. Make a commitment. Follow through. Keep doing it until it works for you. Test it out - don't just do a practice in your room. Try it in real-life situations. You can bring the practices into whatever you do - cooking, gardening, driving your car, working, being with people. An ordinary life infused with practice becomes a meaningful life." With these simple and encouraging words, Swami Radhananda invites us into her latest book, Living the Practice. This collection of Swami Radhananda's previously published writings brings together her signature intelligent and inspirational teachings. Originally written for her column in the well-respected yoga magazine, Ascent (1999-2009), her essays stretch beyond the norms of "stretch yoga" into a place of profound wisdom. Her essential message? Yoga has the power to transform your life. Swami Radhananda presents yoga as a living system that we can engage with everyday, a journey of continuous learning and growth. Sharing examples from her own life and the keen observations from over thirty years of teaching yoga, her essays explore the potential of yoga to transform our minds, our self-image, our bodies and our hearts. Swami Radhananda is a compassionate guide on the yogic path, offering spiritual support in our efforts to live the practice.

Living the Season
Author: Ji Hyang Padma
Publisher: Quest Books
ISBN: 0835630870
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
As the Rig Vedas and Buddhist sutras foretell, as well as the Hopi and Mayan calendars, we are in the midst of complete transformation—ecologically, economically, politically, culturally. This graceful introduction offers creative safe passage through the sometimes overwhelming transition, drawing on ancient and contemporary spiritual practices particularly useful for these times. The endings we experience are always the beginning of something else. Hence author Ji Hyang Padma organizes teachings around the four seasons. In living connected to natural rhythms—the stillness of winter, the renewal of spring, the ripening of summer, the harvest of autumn—we touch a wholeness that is the source of healing and happiness. Practical exercises at the end of each chapter promote this state of being and bring the mind home to its innate clarity. Ideally suited to anyone experiencing personal change—through career, relationships, or world events—the book provides a way into Zen for beginners as well as a refresher for the more advanced.
