Salute (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798329005783)

Salute is a book about yoga and not about yoga. Moving breath by breath through each pose in the Sun Salute, this collection is about starting over and giving ourselves permission to fail. Each chapter reminds us to live in the moment, whether we're at home, on a beach in Barcelona, in a park in Cadiz, or at the gym in Provincetown. Salute reminds us to accept and appreciate what we have in the now.

"Salute reminds me of Natalie Goldberg's, Writing Down The Bones or What I Talk About When I Talk About Running by Haruki Murakami in which writing and running practice become metaphors for any number of other expressive practices, and how those practices teach us about life. 'We are a part of everything, ' Goldberg says. Murakami says, 'You make do with what you have. As you age you learn even to be happy with what you have.' Bob Merckel says, 'There is no perfect.' Salute reassures me that the imperfections I see in myself are only stepping stones to 'doing it better.' That I can always choose to be at the beginning of something, and stand in the light."
-Lynne Rees, author of The Hungry Writer and Real Port Talbot
