This is just to let you know about a book giveaway that will coming up and that I’ve added two new events to the California Book Tour I’m doing with Dr. Brad Gibson (which are tagged with NEW below). 


I'm also providing links to articles about our book that have come out recently. 

Upcoming Book Giveaway 

Shambhala is partnering with Melanie Klein’s publisher, Llewellyn Publishers, to host a giveaway of our books, both ours and hers. (See Interview with Melanie Klein About "Yoga Rising" for information about her book.) 

The giveaway of our book Yoga for Healthy Aging: A Guide to Lifelong Well-Being will be hosted by Melanie Klein and the Yoga and Body Image Coalition on Instagram the second week of March. So get started now by following shambhala_publications,  #yogaandbodyimage, and melmelklein on Instagram if you are not already doing so (or join Instagram if you're not already there).

Book Reviews 

We’re so grateful for the wonderful review of our book that Charlotte Bell wrote for YogaUOnline Book Review: Yoga for Healthy Aging: A Guide to Lifelong Well-Being! We really appreciate not just that she said good things about the book and summed it up so well, but she really understood what we were trying to do with the book and expressed it so clearly. 

“I greatly appreciate the tone of Yoga for Healthy Aging. Bell’s and Zolotow’s language is always friendly and engaging. Their descriptions of the inevitable changes that occur in our bodies as we age are neither fatalistic nor overly cheery. Instead, their approach bespeaks the equanimity they appear to have developed in their own practice. The evolution of our bodies as we age is simply what is true—it’s neither good nor bad. These changes are written into our DNA, and Bell and Zolotow approach them with a dispassionate depth of understanding that is refreshing.

No matter how many years we’ve lived in our bodies, the fact is, we are all aging. Every moment. We may not think much about aging before we turn 40, but that doesn’t change the fact that our biological clocks are ticking away. Yoga for Healthy Aging is highly informative, compassionate and a joy to read. It is the most comprehensive text I’ve yet read about this process we’re all navigating and how our yoga practice can grow with us as we age. Yoga for Healthy Aging is a book that you can turn to for knowledge and inspiration for the rest of your life.” —Charlotte Bell


For the complete review, go to YogaUOnline.

We’re also pleased that a brief article about our work along with one of the sequences from the book is on wellandgood.com at 9 YOGA POSES TO HELP YOU LIVE YOUR MOST HEALTHY, VIBRANT LIFE. We hope this piece will help get our message about the value of yoga for healthy aging (as opposed to longevity) out there to those who have been thinking about yoga simply as exercise. And the practice we chose to share is our Calming Practice in the hopes some of their followers will balance all the "sweat" with a little relaxation.
