Description

Embrace Yoga’s Roots: Courageous Ways to Deepen Your Yoga Practice explores the yogic traditions of the past, bringing them alive today, and preserving them for the future by examining what separates us, reflecting on our part, taking action for equity, and moving toward liberation together. The teaching format of this book offers tools, resources, and a framework for deep personal inquiry as readers explore:

Separation: How colonization, cultural appropriation, and oppression

results in trauma for yogis and separation from yoga traditions.

Reflection: Understanding the causes of separation and our individual roles

either supporting separation (knowingly or not) versus creating unity and

equity in yoga.

Reconnection: Exploring specific and concrete skills and solutions for living

and practicing yoga as unity.

Liberation: Integrate a more honorable and ethical practice in your life

supporting personal growth by following the ancient teachings.
