Download or read book Yoga Warrior written by Rudy Mettia and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-07-26 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "What was I doing in Myrtle Beach on that chilly January evening in 1990 with a loaded gun and a bag full of cash? I'll get to that shortly. And who was Larry? I'll get to that too. In fact, I'll get to a lot of things, many of them not very pleasant, as I tell you about the path I have taken in life." To get to the highest level as a world class yoga teacher took a lifetime of wrong choices. Rudy Mettia is not your typical yoga master and "Yoga Warrior" is a powerful story of Rudy's life that will inspire yoga students and non yoga students to never stop looking for their own version of enlightenment on their own warrior path! "To me, this book is inspirational in the sense it expresses the fact yoga is for everyone, and just because your past did not include peace, love and granola (mine did not either), it does not bar you from yoga wisdom. In Rudy's case, it's to the contrary - it has been his catalyst. You definitely won't find another rough and tumble story like this in the plethora of yoga books out there and for me that is refreshing. I can certainly recommend to you 'Yoga Warrior' by Rudy Mettia!" Bryan Kest Father of Poweryoga and founder of western based Donation yoga "Having practiced yoga with Rudy for several years, I've come to know him not only as an instructor but as a mentor and a friend. His gifts, wisdom and ability to overcome obstacles and setbacks have made him the teacher and man he is today." Arianna Huffington Co-Founder and Editor-In-Chief of The Huffington Post "Rudy is one of the most REAL Yoga Stars in the world. He brings ancient yoga tools into the modern world so we can relate. He is a No BS real dude who we can all relate to and be truly inspired by. As the Publisher and Co-founder of PositivelyPositive.com I come across the most inspirational personalities in the world, and Rudy is one of the tops on that list." Eric Handler Co-Founder of PositivelyPositive.com "From the moment you step into Rudy's class you are met with a warm enthusiasm and you feel at home. Here is a man who loves what he does and as he guides you from pose to pose you fall in love with the practice as well. Rudy makes the practice accessible and safe while gently pushing you beyond your perceived limits." Yariv Lerner Founder/CEO Udaya Entertainment "Rudy's say-it-like-it-is approach is refreshing, humorous, and heartfelt. Whether he's telling a story, teaching a yoga class, or simply engaging you in friendly conversation, you'll be seduced by his wit and charm." Jules Mitchell MS,Yoga Teacher, Yoga Educator
Download or read book Mindfulness Yoga written by Frank Jude Boccio and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2005-06-10 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether you have no background in meditation or yoga or have been practicing for years, Mindfulness Yoga is for you. This groundbreaking book introduces an entirely new form of yoga, Mindfulness Yoga, which seamlessly integrates the Buddha's teachings on the Four Foundations of Mindfulness with traditional asana yoga practice. Mindfulness Yoga emphasizes the spiritual side of yoga practice, an aspect often overlooked in a culture that tends to fixate solely on the physical benefits of yoga. Unlike any other Buddhism-meets-yoga book, Mindfulness Yoga presents the two disciplines as a single practice that brings health to the body and liberates the mind and spirit, awakening compassion and fostering equanimity and joy. Mindfulness Yoga will appeal to the many people who have an interest in yoga, Buddhism, and meditation, but who may not have been able to find a teacher who could bring these practices together in a meaningful, practical way. In the first part of the book, author Frank Jude Boccio offers a superb and lively introduction to the Buddha's teachings and locates them within the larger context of the Indian spiritual traditions. Then, in the second half of the book, Boccio offers three complete Mindfulness Yoga sequences, including over 100 pictures, with detailed guidance for body, breath, and mind. Special lay-flat binding makes this book even more useful as a practice aid.

Download or read book Yoga 7 Minutes a Day 7 Days a Week written by Gertrud Hirschi and published by Red Wheel/Weiser. This book was released on 2017-11-01 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 20 years ago, Gertrud Hirschi distributed a little accessible guide to yoga as a newspaper supplement. It was a big hit. Tens of thousands were distributed, and here, by popular demand, is a revised edition of her guide. This little book provides basic 7-minute yoga exercises for each day of the week. The exercises are organized by the mythological and planetary significances of each particular day. For example, Sunday's focus is on light, energy, and expanding one's heart; Monday is the day of the moon and its focus is on cleansing, introspection, and planning; Tuesday is the day of Mars and its focus is on expression, action, and pursuing goals; and Wednesday is the day of Mercury and is a more volatile time in which the focus is on the power of thought and finding balance. The gentle daily exercises, each including a mantra and a meditation, focus on various parts of the body-from the heart and shoulders to the pelvis and the digestive tract. By the end of the week, the practitioner will have experienced full-body yoga, and every part of the body will feel energized and strong. This is more than a book for the body; Hirschi has constructed a program that aims to heal and energize the soul and spirit. She encourages a practice that promotes a greater sense of purpose, embraces of the richness of life, and provides a sense of total peace and harmony. Clear, gentle, and affirming, this simple guide will be a hit with those new to yoga and longtime practitioners alike.

This book will shine light on darkness to invoke rising closer to our full loving nature, potential. No Matter How Dark the Stain is presented in three sections: Poems of love, innocence, and poems of hope from the time before loss, grief, and trauma Grieving poems for the loss of a child, and poetry about abuse and trauma Poems of getting over grief, healing poems, poems of hope and gratitude, poems of love, especially self-love.
