| |  | Keyword Search: George Frideric Handel | Home » Bringing Yoga to Life: The Everyday Practice of Enlightened Living | | | | | | | Description: | | Internationally renowned and bestselling author Donna Farhi moves yoga practice beyond the mat into our everyday lives, restoring the tradition's intended function as a complete, practical philosophy for daily living. Expanding upon the teachings of Patanjali's Yoga Sutras, the core text of the yoga tradition, Donna Farhi describes yoga's transforming power as a complete life practice, far beyond its common reduction to mere exercise routine or stress management. This is the philosophy of yoga as a path to a deeper awareness of self. Drawing upon her years of teaching with students, Farhi guides readers through all the pitfalls and promises of navigating a spiritual practice. Farhi's engaging and accessible style and broad experience offer important teachings for newcomers and seasoned practitioners of yoga alike. And because her teachings of yoga philosophy extend into every corner of daily life, this book is an equally accessible guide to those seeking spiritual guidance without learning the pretzel bendings of the physical practice itself. As one of the top teachers worldwide, Farhi's exploration of the core philosophy of yoga is destined to become an instant classic. | | | Features: | |

An easy, relateable readMar 03, 2009 As a writer, yoga studio owner and yoga student myself I am constantly reading books of a yoga nature. "Bringing Yoga into Life" was a nice, easy read that was very easily relateable for me. I always appreciate when an author is able to give the sometimes heavy yogic philosophies a modern view.

Bringing Yoga ToLife, Donna FarhiApr 25, 2008 This book is a an absolute essential for any Yoga Practitioner. I have been practicing yoga for over 5 years and teaching for over 2 1/2 years. I keep rereading this book so I can have the knowledge and experience from this book embedded in my body and brain. I have highlighted, underlined, bookmarked many pages in this book to share with my yoga students. I could not say enough about this amazing book.

Pure FluffFeb 06, 2008 Not to be too negative, but from my angle, this book contains nothing of substance. It's Farhi's journal entries for a period in her life (as far as I can tell) that add nothing of value to the discussion of or learning of yoga. Save your money.

A Real GemJul 27, 2006 I really treasure my copy of Donna Farhi's "Bringing Yoga to Life." No matter how many times I've read it, I can always pick it up and glean some new insight or perspective from any passage. Her writing reflects genuine depth, wisdom, and experience, and she has a real gift for expressing sentiments that we intuitively realize but may not yet be able express ourselves. Note that this is not your typical manual of physical postures (there are certainly plenty of those available), but a very unique work that speaks to the process of integrating one's practice into daily life (which is what yoga is really about). Highly recommended.
