At a time of uncertainty and call for reflection, this interactive workbook informs and demonstrates that Yoga is not about one’s ability to get into crazy poses, but instead, a practical practice and philosophy for self-connection. Written as a guide and re/introduction into yoga for both beginners and the seasoned, this book shares relatable lessons and a special meditation for calm. As a base and context, Teri Gandy-Richardson utilizes B.K.S. Iyengar’s metaphoric likening of yoga to the parts of a tree from his book, ‘The Tree of Yoga’(Shambala Publications, Inc.) to weave her personal stories, questions and perspective to illustrate how profoundly simple Patanjali’s 8 Limbs can be applied and incorporated into our modern lives for purpose and fulfillment. For anyone who has ever struggled with life’s challenges, this book may be read and experienced on its own, or in conjunction with the author’s courses for which it has been designed to support. Each is delivered with a style known for holding non-intimidating, and nurturing spaces for people to realize the value their efforts and personal strengths, while deepening their practice in self-discovery and calm.

In this courageous, groundbreaking book, Jeff Brown takes us on the spiritual ride of a lifetime. The book opens with the author's compelling journey, through a variety of spiritual approaches. Through decades of dedicated exploration and discernment, Brown exposes the transcendent notions of spirituality that limit our human experience. In his fiercely authentic, no-holds-barred style, Brown demonstrates that spirituality is a whole-being awakening, one that heartfully, embraces our entire human experience: our feelings, our stories, our bodies, our relationships with others, and the earth that houses us. Hands-on exercises throughout provide a direct experience of a vital new model. In 'Grounded Spirituality', the author lays down the tracks for an embodied way of being, one that leaves us 'enrealed,' integrated, and purposeful. Not transcending our humanness, but finding meaning and spirituality within in, right in the heart of our imperfect daily lives. Back to our roots, back into our bodies, back into all that makes us magnificently human. Home at last...

An inspiring and eye-opening memoir showing how Democrats can reconnect with rural and red-state voters, from Montana’s three-term democratic senator Senator Jon Tester is a rare voice in Congress. He is the only United States senator who manages a full-time job outside of the Senate—as a farmer. But what has really come to distinguish Tester in the Senate is his commitment to accountability, his ability to stand up to Donald Trump, and his success in, time and again, winning red state voters back to the Democratic Party. In Grounded, Tester shares his early life, his rise in the Democratic party, his vision for helping rural America, and his strategies for reaching red state voters. Leaning deeply into lessons on the value of authenticity and hard work that he learned growing up on his family’s 1,800-acre farm near the small town of Big Sandy, Montana—the same farm he continues to work today with his wife, Sharla—Tester has made his political career a testament to crossing the divides of class and geography. The media and Democrats too often discount rural people as Trump supporters; Tester knows better. His voice is vital to the public discourse as we seek to understand the issues that are important to rural and working-class America in not just the 2020 election but also for years to come. A heartfelt and inspiring memoir from a courageous voice, Grounded shows us that the biggest threat to our democracy isn’t a president who has no moral compass. It’s politicians who don’t understand the value of accountability and hard work. Tester demonstrates that if American democracy is to survive, we must put our trust in the values that keep us grounded.
