1001 Pearls of Yoga Wisdom
An accessible, poetic interpretation of yoga practices, with artists illustrations throughout.
‘ …I just want to tell you how useful and inspirational this book is. I use it for lesson planning and have been quite moved at times to ‘open the book at whatever page’ and find just what I’m looking for at the time.
Thank you so much – it has brought a lot of yoga wisdom and joy to me and is very thought provoking. It’s a bit like the wardrobe in The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe’, or the Tardis – such a little book – yet in touch with the whole universe.
Thanks, Jane Rothery
