THIS IS THE BLACK AND WHITE EDITION. There are a lot of yoga books available today. Some focus on anatomy, some on philosophy, and some on teaching. However, none of them cover it all. Until now. Deepening Your Practice pulls the most critical information from more than 50 of the best books and teachers I've found, combined with thousands of hours of experience as a yoga teacher and studio owner to create the only yoga book many students will ever need.

Book Description
Thank you for purchasing this book and being willing to look deeper into your practice of yoga. The Path of Light is a compilation of the life work of the author, David Scott as he explored yoga for himself, from the very roots of where it began, to where it is today. The Path of Light, has been used as the foundation for a syllabus for both the Yoga Alliance 200-hour and 300-hour programs, for Registered Yoga Teachers.If you are a teacher, or running your own teacher training program and giving back to the community, we thank you. We truly hope this book will enhance your teaching, your practice and your programs. In most teacher training programs, only about 25% of the students taking the course, do so with the intention of one day actually teaching. The vast majority take the course simply to gain a better understanding of yoga and help themselves along this adventurous journey called life. Be careful however, because some of the best teachers of today, took their first teacher training course only for personal growth, teaching yoga can be very addicting and it gives our lives meaning and purpose beyond measure.The author, David Scott is a pragmatic thinker. He looks to everything through the eyes of a scientist, that is evidenced based and examines with discernment for proof before simply believing. Just because something was written long ago or is on the internet today, does not mean that it is valid or that modern advancements in science have not proven a theory false or obsolete. Researching this book, has been a transformative eye-opening experience for the author. Many beliefs instilled since childhood, thought to be solid bedrocks of truth, can crumble under the light of scientific evidence. Some beliefs we are taught early on, served a purpose once and were meant to protect us, but can limit us, as our life takes flight and our horizons expand. In order to fly we have to release the the things weighing us down. Learn to let go of what no longer serves you in your life, as you enjoy this book and your spiritual journey. The Path of Light has altered the thinking of the author; his hope is that you will be at least open to exploring different viewpoints, rather than being limited by beliefs. Some principles of our exploration, will simply be unexplainable in rationale or scientific terms. Love for example, is an emotion that while it cannot be studied under a microscope, is evident to exist in our in our hearts and minds. Perhaps modern science still has some catching up to do with the ancient Indian teachings, as we expand our boundaries of knowledge. Many things in our subtle energetic body are this way. To be understood they must be felt and our hope is that we can feel them together, along the Path of Light.Often, David's scientific approach can be a bit coarse; you may not agree with all of his conclusions. That being said, feel free to email David at
[email protected] with any content suggestions, as we continue to improve and evolve together. With an open mind we can see further and should all be willing to change our views based on any newly obtained knowledge. Yoga continues to evolve and as our rising tide of knowledge increases, so will all our boats of understanding rise together.
