YOKE My Yoga of Self-Acceptance

Yoga teacher and Black body positive advocate Jessamyn Stanley offers up a collection of personal essays on the subjects of yoga, wellness, and life. She focuses on the beginner's mindset when explaining the benefits and importance of yoga and how the discipline relates to modern society and its struggles. Thoughtful and fun, each piece of writing reveals inspiring and authentic views that support self-love and acceptance using yoga and everything it encompasses. With vulnerability that is both hilarious and profound, Stanley shares her relationship with yoga and avoids the superficial portrayal of the practice that is often displayed on social media. Those who appreciate honesty mixed with encouragement will enjoy this audiobook--part memoir, part homage to yoga. D.Z. © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine [Published: SEPTEMBER 2021]
