At the root, there is a vast and intriguing philosophy that teaches the ethics of nonviolence, patience, honesty, and respect. Michael Stone provides an in-depth explanation of ancient Indian yogic philosophy along with teachings on how to bring our understanding of yoga theory to deeper levels through our practice on the mat—and through our relationships with others.

It is certainly what we need now.'—Frank Jude Boccio, author of Mindfulness Yoga 'Few people on the planet have Michael's gift to explore and explain in contemporary language the profound wisdom of yoga. Highly recommended for teachers and students.'—Larry Payne, PhD, coauthor, Yoga for Dummies and Yoga Rx There is more to the tradition of yoga than toning and strengthening.
