Review
“I’m grateful for Jasmine’s attention to the mind, as well as the body. I came to yoga following an injury and approached the mat like an active volcano, terrified I’d hurt myself again. Her practical suggestions are great for creating a practice that supports our individual needs and our impossible schedules, and her attention to Seva, or ‘selfless service,’ is both an inspiration and a challenge to our lives on and off the mat.”―Megan Stielstra, author of Once I Was Cool
“Yoga works best when it is tailored to each person’s individuality. In the Yoga Body & Mind Handbook, Jasmine honors this need by offering the kind of personalization and guidance that respects each reader’s specific abilities.”―Mark Whitwell, Master Yoga Teacher and author of The Promise and Yoga of Heart
“Jasmine presents a full introduction to yoga―perfect for beginning students as she outlines poses and sequences in a clear and accessible way. She explains the deeper foundations of the practice including breathing and meditation techniques, Ayurveda, and yoga philosophy. Jasmine also encourages readers to contemplate ways to take yoga off the mat to benefit the community―a true gift of the yoga practice.”―Renee LaRose, senior event manager at Yoga Journal
“Jasmine Tarkeshi has so much unique hands-on experience working with yoga practitioners. As the co-founder of Laughing Lotus Studios, Jasmine is one of the leading voices in the sophisticated San Francisco yoga scene, where she is loved. Her book is a timely and contemporary reflection of her life’s mission: to share the sacred wisdom of this ancient healing practice.”―Rob Sidon, publisher of Common Ground Magazine
