A worsening diagnosis of ulcerative colitis led author Brian Leaf to turn to the practice of yoga, which eased his symptoms and allowed him to return to remission.
Yoga also helped Brian in other health areas, both physically and mentally/emotionally, including ADD/ADHD.
In his new book, The Teacher Appears: 108 Prompts to Power Your Yoga Practice, which is an illustrated journal of 108 prompts, Brian guides readers to deepen their yoga practice with dristi, mudra, and pranayama; to explore their uncomfortable edges; to cultivate intuition; and, simply, to long for the divine, as they experience the true meaning of yoga.
Brian joins host Lisa Davis to help you discover a new depth to your yoga practice and a new level of dedication, meaning, and happiness in your life.
