About this item
"I have practiced yoga nearly twenty years now, and I appreciate the spiritual and healing aspects of my practice as much, if not more, than the physical. Thank you Ally Hamilton and Yogis Anonymous for providing both the physical challenge, and the tools for healing and balance in my life. Yoga and life are journeys, and this book is a wonderful guide along the path! Namaste!" -- Greg Louganis, four-time Olympic gold medalist "This is a stunningly generous book about what it means to move through life with grace, presence, and forgiveness. It's less of a treatise on yoga and more of a lesson on how how to be human. You'll close the cover feeling more compassion for yourself than any yoga class could ever bestow. I was deeply humbled and greatly inspired by Ally Hamilton's courageous take on life, love, loss, and surrender.
About the Author
Ally Hamilton grew up in New York City and graduated from Columbia University with a B.A., having done an English major and Psychology minor. During her senior year, she wandered into a yoga class thinking it was going to be too easy for her, and that yoga was "stretching on the floor." After having her ass handed to her, she was hooked. Not only was the physical challenge appealing, she discovered yoga was a way of being, not something you do for 90 minutes on a mat.
Ally is a Santa Monica-based yoga teacher, writer and life coach, who connects daily with yogis all around the world via her online yoga classes. She's the co-creator of http://www.yogisanonymous.com, which has been featured in The New York Times, Yoga Journal, Self Magazine, Shape Magazine and The Wall Street Journal. She's a regular contributor for The Huffington Post and Positively Positive, a wellness expert at MindBodyGreen, and writes an almost-daily blog at http://blog.yogisanonymous.com. Her first book, "Open Randomly: Fortune Cookies for the Soul" is available on Amazon. Her next book, "Yoga's Healing Power: Looking Inward for Change, Growth and Peace" is due from Llewellyn Worldwide in August, 2016. She's the mama of two amazing kids and one energetic Labradoodle.
