While there are many yoga books on the market today, little has been written about yoga as a personal-growth tool, this book shows readers how to use this unique blend of yoga and psychology to bridge the gap between body and soul. Photos.

This book gave great me great insight into using yoga in not just the physical realm. Having been part of my Ayurveda and Yoga workshop it added another dimension of being able to take yoga and discover what lies beyond the surface of our ego.

In the 1980s, author Michael Lee gained great insight and awareness about himself and life while doing yoga. He sensed that his body was a port of entry to a deeper level of awareness and realized that yoga transformed him mentally and spiritually as well as physically. Wanting to help others gain from his experiences, he founded the Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy program. Named after the mythical bird that burns itself on the funeral pyre and rises from the ashes transformed, the program is a powerful mind/body system of interwoven postures and non-directive theraphy that has helped thousands of people achieve inner peace and fulfillment. In this fascinating book based on Lee’s internationally acclaimed program, you will find an essential guide to achieving spiritual balance and living in the present moment. Through exercises and meditations, you will learn how to recognize and then release the body-stored memories, fears and traumas that trap you in the past. You will discover how to embrace your daily joys and fears to live your life to the fullest and findy your own true self. Like the phoenix, you will rise from the ashes harmonized in body, mind and spirit.
