Editorial Reviews

07/20/2015
Spiritual teacher Judith (Wheels of Life) “stumbled into yoga” in 1975, and now travels the world teaching workshops in the chakra-based method that she has developed. She leads readers through the seven chakras, devoting individual chapters to the practices she dubs Enter, Align, Activate, Soften, Attune, Illuminate, and Awaken, along with comprehensive descriptions, clearly worded yoga sequences, and photographs. The text is addressed to different levels, with Judith specifically aiming at teachers. In addition to asanas (postures), the author emphasizes the importance of pranayama (breath practices) and meditation, without which, she asserts, no study of yoga is complete. Readers can practice the sequences as a daily routine that includes all seven chakras, a weekly routine with a different chakra each day, or even as an intensive monthly routine. “Yoga is a spiritual language that we speak with the body, mind, and soul,” writes Judith, who promises to serve as a knowledgeable guide to the “Inner Temple.” Accessible and relevant to yoga students and teachers, the book will appeal to those seeking a deeper understanding and experience of the chakra system.
