I got an Amazon gift card for Christmas from Cowgirl Warrior. How to spend such a gift?!
I bought "enLIGHTened: How I lost 40 pounds with a yoga mat, fresh pineapples, and a Beagle-Pointer" by Jessica Berger Gross. There was an excerpt in Yoga Journal and I was intrigued.
It arrived in early January and I devoured it in less than 4 hours. It's a really easy read and filled with great advice, funny anecdotes and some yoga theory. Two points that really resonated with me:
-truthfulness (satya): become more truthful in everything you do, including what you're eating and why
- moderation (brahmacarya): it's not your last meal! Your tummy should be: 1/2 full with food, 1/4 full with water, 1/4 full with air
Two thumbs up!
Namaste.
