Yoga practice aims at transforming the heart and mind of the practitioner. But how can this practice produce such a transformation? And what does this transformation consist of?
It is often said that asana (posture) practice is a transformative experience. While this sounds good, it is rarely specified what such transformation consists of. And it is even rarer to find an account of how such a transformation can come about as a result of asana practice. In this book, the authors use their rich and diverse backgrounds, their shared interest in the wonders of the body and the mind, as well as their love for yoga, to offer both practical explorations and theoretical survey of the subject. The book has four chapters:
