Tonight I went to the parcel drop-off center located at the ass-end-of-nowhere, and picked up my copy of this…

Overcoming Trauma through Yoga: Reclaiming Your Body
by David Emerson and Elizabeth Hopper

It’s a book my good friend and recently renewed blogger, Linda-Sama, told me about. I’ve had it on pre-order since before it was available.

It has forwords from Peter Levine, Stephen Cope and an introduction from Bessel A. van der Kolk (BlissChick told me about him).

It’ll not only do me good, but down the track it will also help me to assist others who’ve been through trauma: for this is work I know I’ll be doing in the future.

Yoga is awesome in so many ways.

Om.

P.S. I’m not terribly good at remembering to write  book reviews but if I do, you know where I’ll post it.
