The Ocean of Yoga
"An essential resource that offers insight into yoga's history, philosophy, significant texts, and practice"--
The Ocean of Yoga is a definitive guidebook to the core principles and practice of yoga—from its traditional roots to the latest scientific research.
Immerse yourself in the timeless practice of yoga with this essential and accessible guide. With a commitment to honouring rather than modifying the tradition of yoga, experienced teacher Amy Landry unveils the vast ocean of yoga—from its rich history, texts, and traditions to the core principles and practice.
Explore:
- A captivating overview of the history and evolution of yoga
- Key facets of subtle yogic anatomy, including prana, koshas, nadis, kundalini, chakras, vayu, and a map of the mind
- A practical framework inward that expands beyond the popularized eight-limbed approach
- Teachings on the tangible techniques, such as traditional joint movements, purification practices, mudra, meditation, mantra, and approaching yoga through an Ayurvedic lens
- Diverse paths, including Bhakti, Karma, Jnana, Raja, Hatha, Laya, and Tantra
- Guidance on living (and teaching) yoga through stewardship and lineage, while using the four aims and stages of life as anchors
- Foundational yoga texts, featuring the revered Bhagavad Gita and Patanjali's Yoga Sutra, alongside some lesser-known treasures
- The sanctity of Sanskrit, sound, and so much more
With a clear and inspiring voice, Landry offers pivotal insight to any student or teacher seeking a genuine connection to the depths of yoga.
