Sun & Moon teacher, Alison Zak, published a book!
Come and celebrate the release of Wild Asana in Alison's beloved home yoga community. Wild Asana: Animals, Yoga, and Connecting Our Practice to the Natural World is a 'nature memoir through a yoga lens.' It explores how we can connect with and become animals on our yoga mats, taking inspiration from common critter pose names, Hindu mythology, wildlife research, and more. Anne Cushman, author of The Mama Sutra and Moving into Meditation, wrote about Wild Asana: "In her paean to the interdependence of the human spirit and the natural world, Alison Zak flows effortlessly between science, poetry, myth, and memoir—reminding us that true yogis are both naturalists and mystics." To celebrate, Alison will read aloud from a section of the book, lead the group through a couple quick practices, and answer questions about writing, yoga, animals, and anything in between. There will be light refreshments and copies of Wild Asana for sale.
