Brilliant gift for a yogi
Beautiful stories, authentic feel, great cover and ideal for a present for a yogi that would like to understand the origin of various yoga poses. It’s in “short story” format so easy to read before bed. One at a time.

All the stories are so important
As a student of Raj’s and a weekly listener to his podcast, it is a great resource as a yoga teacher to have these stories in context to asanas and life. It’s a wonderfully illustrated book and simply delightful to read and contemplate!
