Book excerpt: Transform your yoga practice into an intimate, creative, and healing experience in this refreshing guide to yoga in the modern world “An inspiring read for all yogis.” —Michael Franti, musician, filmmaker, activist What if, instead of constantly pushing yourself beyond your limitations, you paused to really listen to your body’s needs? In Gravity & Grace, innovative yoga teacher and trainer Peter Sterios shares a unique set of practice principles to help anyone—from beginners to advanced practitioners and teachers—revitalize their approach to yoga by tuning into the subtle body. When our yoga practices become too rigid, overly focused on technique, or dependent upon ideals that are not suited to our bodies, we lose the full potential of what yoga offers—a truly personal pathway to physical well-being, emotional unfolding, and spiritual awakening. In this groundbreaking book, Sterios helps you embrace the full, healing potential of yoga as he shares wisdom gained from over 45 years of exploring yoga and the subtle body. He teaches that by developing a sensitivity to how the natural forces of gravity and grace are at work physically and psychologically, we become empowered to confidently decide how to practice each day. Through an insightful blend of practical theory and direct instruction, Sterios will guide you to incorporate awareness of physical and subtle anatomy into your practice, utilize the breath for greater well-being, and create flowing sequences that naturally meet your unique needs in each moment. For teachers looking to deepen their offerings, students who want to bring a more personalized and healing experience to their yoga practice, and anyone working with physical limitations (from injury, body type, age, or any of the myriad obstacles humans face), Gravity & Grace is the “no-style” yoga guide you’ve been waiting for.

Download or read book The Grace in Aging written by Kathleen Dowling Singh and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-08-05 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn to use your later years for awakening and spiritual growth. Encouraging, inspiring, and practical, The Grace in Aging invites all those who have ever experienced spiritual longing to awaken in their twilight years. Since aging, in and of itself, does not lead to spiritual maturity, The Grace in Aging suggests and explores causes and conditions that we can create in our lives, just as we are living them, to allow awakening to unfold -- transforming the predictable sufferings of aging into profound opportunities for growth in clarity, love, compassion, and peace. Kathleen Dowling Singh streamlines vast and complex teachings into skillful means and wise views. Straightforward language and piercing questions bring Singh's teachings into the sharp focus of our own lives; the contemplative nature of each chapter allows for an uncommon depth of inquiry. Examples from our lives and from the chatter in our own minds touch the reader personally, offering the chance to absorb the implications deeply and do the work of freeing his or her own mind. Ecumenical in spirit, tone, and language, Singh offers wisdom from teachers from a variety of spiritual backgrounds: Thich Nhat Hanh, the Apostles, Annie Dillard, and more. Lessening our attachments, decreasing our aversions, unbinding what binds us, we bear witness to the possibility of awakening for all beings. The Grace in Aging offers guidelines for older individuals of any wisdom tradition who wish to awaken before they die; no need for caves or seven-year retreats. This is spiritual practice for the lives we live.
Download or read book Grace in the Valley written by Heath Adamson and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps no psalm is more widely known than Psalm 23. Spoken by David during a time of great stress and difficulty, it summons us to lie down in green pastures and walk thru the valley of the shadow of death. Yet so often it seems we do just the reverse, lying down in the valley and fixating on the danger, fear, and uncertainty. We wonder where God has gone and why he doesn't make things right, never considering that perhaps what we perceive as a spiritual trial is actually an invitation from God. In this inspirational examination of Psalm 23, Heath Adamson asks the provocative question: What if the green pasture and valley of the shadow of death is the same place? Uncovering the rich historical and spiritual context of the shepherd's psalm, he explores how God has provided a place of rest for each of us, even in the times of unrest, uncertainty, moral ambiguity, and fear.

Download or read book The Awakening written by Pieter Swart and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2008-08 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are living in a time when Christians are running on empty. The reason is simple: we have replaced the abiding life in Christ Jesus with trying to live this Christian life in our own strength and ability. We have changed our focus from the spiritual to the natural. Only one person could ever have lived the Christian life, and His name is Jesus Christ. If He is not the center and source of our lives, then we can forget about living the Christian life. The new covenant is based on the fact that Jesus has cleansed man from all his sin by His blood. The main purpose for His shed blood was to set man free from the sin nature and give him a righteous nature so that God Himself could come to take residence in man. Pieter Swart was born and raised in South Africa, where he came to know the Lord Jesus Christ at the age of twenty-three. In 1986, Pieter married his wife, Linda, and they have two daughters: Maryke and Salome. In 1987, Pieter and Linda planted their first church. From 1988 to 2001, they were involved in church planting and pastoring several churches in South Africa. In 2002, the Lord called Pieter to station himself in Canada, from where he is called to reach out to the nations with the Good News of the Kingdom. Through the teaching ministry of Pieter and Linda, people come to the understanding of how to receive from God. Pieter also has a heart to see pastors breaking through in their communities.
Download or read book Awakening to the Infinite written by Swami Muktananda and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2015 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Having been raised as a Catholic and educated in the West, then trained as a monk in India since the 1980s, Canadian author Swami Muktananda of Rishikesh is uniquely positioned to bring the Eastern tradition of Vedanta to Western spiritual seekers. In Awakening to the Infinite, he answers the eternal, fundamental question posed by philosophical seekers, "Who am I?" with straightforward simplicity. Knowing who you are and adopting a spiritual outlook, he counsels, can help solve problems in daily life to do with relationships, work, children, sexuality, illness, and social injustice. In answering the question "Who am I?," Swami Muktananda of Rishikesh draws on the ancient teachings of advaita or nonduality, the truth that there is no division between ourselves and others at a fundamental level. The book is drawn from the many conversations he has throughout the year meeting with individuals from different backgrounds, cultures, and walks of life, as well as public talks and question and answer sessions. Covering subjects ranging from the spiritual path to everyday problems, Muktananda addresses questions with simplicity and compassion, from the standpoint of someone who is anchored in the infinite but fully in touch with the world. His teaching follows the words of Christ and the Old Testament as well as those of the sages of India, who all proclaim a universal truth that transcends all religions: 'You are not the body; you are not the mind; you are the immortal, divine Self. Realize this and be free.'"--

Each discourse is short enough to read as a daily inspiration, and deep enough to totally reset your thinking and understanding of life itself.
