Featured Anusara Yoga^® Product

This month's featured Anusara Yoga product is the long-awaited 10-DVD set, The Basics of Anusara Yoga Teacher Training. The DVD set was filmed in 2005 at a Level One Teacher Training with John Friend in 2005. These DVDs will help you learn to integrate the Universal Principles of Alignment™ more fully into your practice. John Friend's complete dedication to elevating the knowledge and skill of his student teachers is inspiring and is sure to transform your teaching abilities. These DVDs are fantastic for planning and preparing to lead a teacher training, as well as for refining the technique and skills of current teachers.

Other featured Anusara products this month include the following:

The Omega DVD Series
This 4-DVD set is divided into four 90 minute classes that weave John's exquisite asana instruction with uplifting spiritual themes. Lakshmi Rocks Me is an upbeat, invigorating backbends class. Open your hips as John guides you into lotus pose in Growing a Lotus. An energizing blend of backbends and arm balances is found on The Dance of Yes and No, and on Riding the Waves of Grace, the Shakti flows in a sequence of forward bends, hip-openers, and sitting twists. The DVDs are priced at $20 for individual titles with a special offer of $70 for the entire set.

Anusara Yoga Journals
These lovely, sustainably produced journals make the perfect gift for the Anusara yogi on your gift list. Created by village cooperatives in Nepal from handmade tree-free paper from the fast-growing lokta bush, these journals give the village regions of Nepal a much-needed export, and result in the employment of many women in the Kathmandu Valley. Each one is beautifully embossed with the Anusara Yoga logo on the front and is inscribed with the Anusara Yoga invocation inside the front cover. These individually crafted works of art are the perfect place to record the beauty of your experiences in Anusara Yoga classes and workshops. They come in your choice of 10 vibrant colors.

Śrī is the long-awaited follow-up to The Love Window, the immensely popular chanting CD from Shantala (Benjy and Heather Wertheimer). Benjy Wertheimer’s exquisite Indian classical music is featured in his vocals, esraj and tabla, and he creates a powerful percussion experience with world-wide influences on djembe, congas, frame drum, and other percussion. Heather leads sacred chanting on this CD with crystalline vocals from the heart and soul of devotional music. Guest artists include Krishna Das, Snatam Kaur, Gina Salá, Joe Jencks, Steve Gorn, Manose, Jami Sieber, Michael Mandrell, David Trasoff, Morgan Doctor, Leraine Horstmanshoff, John Friend, and others.

The magical journey of Śrī carries the listener with love and ease into the ancient yoga of sacred chanting, inviting the listener to sing along in spiritual practice or to simply resonate in the sacred ambiance created by the CD. From the ancient language of Sanskrit, the word Śrī is one of the many names of the Goddess and of the divine beauty of the universe.
