"Any student of yoga will find treasures to cherish within its pages." -Yoga JournalWINNER, PEN Oakland Josephine Miles Award for Best Poetry BookWINNER, Bay Area Independent Bookseller’s Award for Spiritual BooksEighteenth Anniversary re-issue of this beloved volume, still inspiring thousands of yogis around the world. The transformative paths of yoga and poetry converge in "Yoga Poems: Lines to Unfold By," a landmark volume of poetry by award-winning writer and internationally renown yoga instructor Leza Lowitz. The ancient holistic system of yoga, hugely popular today around the world, helps us to open our hearts, recovering our emotional core and connection to the world through breath, movement, and awareness. Poetry, called the “original breath,” seeks to do the same through words, images and sound. Like yoga, the alchemy of poetry awakens the soul, changing the way we see ourselves and the gifts of the universe. Inspired by yoga postures themselves (think of the names of the poses--Tree, Bridge, Eagle, Sun Salutation, Monkey-- to name a few!) these 60 poems range from the whimsical to the philosophical, the personal to the universal, structured around the Eight Limbs of Yoga. “Hatha-Yoga at its best is both precision science and poetry of the heart. Leza Lowitz’s inspired poems capture well this dual spirit. I have been enjoying them for their depth and grace.” Georg Feuerstein, Ph.D., author, "The Yoga Tradition""I thank Leza for winding down the road of intimately describing her experiences within her yoga practice, extracting the essence of the yoga postures with her keen observation, and communicating them to us through potent poetry." -Rodney Yee"A set of elegant poems inspired by the study and practice of yoga. Lowitz . . . writes here with a Zenlike spareness that lends clarity both to the poems and the reader's appreciation of the yoga experience. YOGA POEMS serves as a window onto a landscape made more vivid by the physical ingenuity and spiritual richness of yoga, and any student of yoga will find treasures to cherish within its pages.” —Yoga Journal
