Easing into Practice: Deep Inquiry Yoga (The Easing Into Practice Collection Book 1)

Taught by Hatha Yoga Therapist, spiritual director and comparative religion scholar Kim Beyer, Deep Inquiry Yoga is a collection of simple practices to apply within the stable and easeful asana, an invitation to the body, breath, mind, intuitive/wisdom self and a taste of joy to simmer together. This is a simmering that cooks you, so you might become an even more fragrant and nourishing dish for yourself and others. Some of the exercises can be done as a small appetizer in a studio classroom or can be used as the central offering of a retreat or during a home meditation time. As always, begin with the practice that is calling to you on a given day - this choice honors the budding intuitive wisdom that is one of the great fruits of a Hatha Yoga practice. That intuitive self is the foundation of an art ultimately free of studios, teachers and outer lessons and expectations. For each student, there is a shape and sequence for Hatha Yoga - you, and Mystery's grace, will one day be your very best teacher. Twenty-five years of sharing the techniques in yoga studio, hospital, college and university and community education centers back up these practices. All are appropriate for beginners but challenging as well for seasoned practitioners looking for the elusive "more" within their practices.
