RESHMA THAKKAR

“There are very many books out there that tell you what to do, but very few crafted as well as this that explain and demonstrate how to work with these esoteric techniques. The how-to instructions for the postures, breath, and visualization in each pose allows deep access to the experiential aspect of our Divine Nature and its connection to the Divine Sacred. My experience with this book was that of being gently guided to the inner door, being handed the magic keys, and finding inside the crown jewels of the ancient and sacred arts and sciences.”

J. MICHAEL WOOD

certified master of Medical Qigong

“A beautifully presented book, written with sensitivity both to yogic principles and practice and to the need of our times to undertake what we do with an attitude of loving kindness and a gentle nurturing of self.

         The authors have provided . . . an easily accessible kundalini regime for novices to adopt. While adhering to their expert knowledge of this discipline, they have produced this delightful book as a testament to the best yogic traditions made simple. I highly recommend this book for anyone who is drawn to yoga, be they newbies or more seasoned proponents.

         There are gems embedded herein which belie the simplicity of the content.”
