Book Synopsis How Not To Teach Yoga: Lessons on Boundaries, Accountability, and Vulnerability Learnt the Hard Way by : Tori Lunden
Download or read book How Not To Teach Yoga: Lessons on Boundaries, Accountability, and Vulnerability Learnt the Hard Way written by Tori Lunden and published by Tori Lunden. This book was released on 2021-02-10 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tori has done a lot of f*cked up things in the pursuit of being a "good" yoga teacher. She didn't mean to be f*cked up; f*cked up things just happened while she was busy attempting to be a personable sage and humble expert on philosophy, mediation, anatomy, functional movement, energy healing, and everything else a yoga teacher is supposed to be good at. It never occurred to her that how she was going about teaching all this expertise might be, well, f*cked up, or potentially even harmful to herself and others. It's a common misstep for yoga teachers: we get so focused on learning everything there is to know about yoga that we overlook the importance of learning how to skillfully teach these things to people. Despite our best of intentions and, usually without realizing it, we fall into common traps like manipulation, elitism, imposter syndrome, and bewilderment when it comes to applying any sort of personal and professional boundaries to what we do. This is a book about how we all mess up and how we can all do better. No Shame. No right or wrong answers. No arbitrary life advice. Through a mix of personal stories, guided reflections, and best practices taken from her experience as a social worker, Tori offers up an easy-to-follow guide for any teacher wanting to show up more reliably for themselves and those whom they teach.
Book Synopsis The Yoga Teacher by : Alexandra Gray
Download or read book The Yoga Teacher written by Alexandra Gray and published by Grove/Atlantic, Inc.. This book was released on 2008-08-12 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This novel of a British woman’s decision to ditch her job and devote herself to yoga is “drolly funny...a winning depiction of a modern spiritual quest” (Kirkus Reviews). Grace is a pharmaceutical rep, making good money visiting doctors to pitch her company’s latantidepressant, a job that’s been getting sort of...depressing. So is her long-term relationship, which has been slowly fizzling out. The one thing that makes her feel better, that allows her to transcend her unsatisfying life, is yoga class. Then, inspired by a conversation with Dr. James, a physician interested in Eastern medicine, Grace decides to pursue a new path as a yoga teacher. After a trip to California to study at the White Lotus Foundation, she returns to London to start her new life. But teacher training did not prepare her for the motley crew of students she encounters—the octogenarian industrialist desperate for distraction; the supermodel who indulges yogic aspirations when she tires of kabbalah; the American film star who uses yoga classes to conceal a scandalous affair. Her one solace comes from her correspondence with Dr. James—now in Vietnam on a quest of his own. Both inspiring and hilarious, The Yoga Teacher gently skewers our preference for a quick-fix nirvana over the rigor of practice—as it follows one woman’s search for love and meaning in a world numbed by materialism and psychotropic drugs. “Gray portrays the world of Westernized yoga, from its true disciples to spandex-wrapped poseurs, in this uplifting tale of starting over...an inspiration for anyone who’s ever yearned to pursue a dream.”—Publishers Weekly
