In Recovery with Yoga, Brian Hyman establishes himself as an authentic teacher worthy of transmitting the ancient and sacred teachings of yoga for the purposes of healing and transformation. His wisdom and guidance are appropriate for anyone at any stage of recovery who wishes to find peace and purpose.

[Hyman] effectively lays bare the psychology of addiction and how yoga can provide positive outcomes related to deeply ingrained habits, impulses, and behaviors. . . . This book moves beyond yoga poses into philosophy-made-actionable in ways that will empower people to live with courage and to trust in their inner power.

The clarity and groundedness of traditional yoga wisdom is a deeply powerful but underutilized resource in working with our recovery from any addictive behavior. Accessible, motivating, and heartfelt, Recovery with Yoga offers us guidance, tools, and inspiration as we maintain and honor sobriety in order to live life with purpose.

For those of you that recognize you are imprisoned by your addiction, congratulations! That is the first step into healing. Recovery with Yoga is Brian Hyman's heartfelt gift to you. He has crafted a roadmap to freedom. With this insightful program, you can refocus your addict's obsession and heal. Take this gift, and good journey to you.
