As a college freshman business major suffering from a variety of anxiety-related maladies, Brian Leaf stumbled into an elective: yoga. It was 1989. All his classmates were female. And men did not yet generally “cry, hug, or do yoga.” But yoga soothed and calmed Leaf as nothing else had. As his hilarious and wise tale shows, Leaf embarked on a quest for health and happiness — visiting yoga studios around the country and consulting Ayurvedic physicians, swamis, and even (accidentally) a prostitute. Twenty-one years later, he teaches yoga and meditation and is the beloved founder of a holistic tutoring center that helps students whose ailments he once shared.

Margaret Roach worked at Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia for 15 years, serving as Editorial Director for the last 6. She first made her name in gardening, writing a classic gardening book among other things. She now has a hugely popular gardening blog, "A Way to Garden." But despite the financial and professional rewards of her job, Margaret felt unfulfilled. So she moved to her weekend house upstate in an effort to lead a more authentic life by connecting with her garden and with nature. The memoir she wrote about this journey is funny, quirky, humble--and uplifting--an Eat, Pray, Love without the travel-and allows readers to live out the fantasy of quitting the rat race and getting away from it all.

On the surface it may appear that yoga is yoga is yoga, but take a closer look and you’ll discover myriad different yoga systems and lineages. There are dozens of yoga styles to choose from, and while yoga is for everyone, not every style is the perfect fit for every person. But how do you choose between mysterious-sounding names such as Ashtanga, Kundalini, Bikram, and Kripalu? As Meagan McCrary discovered when she began exploring different classes, finding the right style is essential for establishing a steady yoga practice. Pick Your Yoga Practice is the first book to describe the most prominent yoga styles in depth, including teaching methodology, elements of practice, philosophical and spiritual underpinnings, class structure, physical exertion, and personal attention. Those new to yoga will discover they have options and can confidently attend a class of their choosing, while experienced practitioners will expand their understanding of the vast world of modern yoga, and perhaps find themselves venturing into new territory.

We need to shift the current leadership paradigm: to move from the idea of exercising power over others to the practice of using your inner power to influence people. This requires a passionate commitment: to get access to our inner power, we need to get over ourselves first. Truly authentic leadership holds the power from within to create the deep transformation that today’s business world requires. A leader who leads from a place of authenticity “knows” himself: he has gone inward and knows his ego parts, conditionings, sabotaging behaviors, and wounds. He also knows his strengths, his power, his charisma, his essence. When you as a leader choose to invest in your own continuous inner growth, you will also be investing in the biggest growth potential for your organization. When as a leader you raise your consciousness through a process of inner growth, you inherently raise the bar for the organization as well. Authenticity is a never-ending inner growth process, and it opens up the way to create the deep transformations that today’s business world requires. It takes only one visionary and courageous leader to step out and lead the way. In this book author, CEO & Lifestyle Coach, Nicole Maria Heimann shows you how to access and transform the way you lead using her model of integrating “The Seven Dimensions of Leadership Intelligence.”
