A lushly illustrated storybook about savouring the miracles of the
everyday. There was once a fawn, who thought that the sun was the
most beautiful thing he had ever seen. But when the sun set, the
little fawn was sad and afraid. "Mother, where does the sun go?" he
asked. Follow one little fawn on his quest in search of the sun, in
this lushly illustrated tale. A lyrical story that's a joy to read
aloud, this nature-inspired fable delivers a gentle warning against
losing sight of the important things in life. With deft nods to
mindfulness and magical realism, The Fawn Who Chased the Sun is a
fable for our times and a modern-classic in the making. This
intricately-foiled hardback edition is as beautiful to look at as
it is to read aloud, showcasing stunning artwork from award-winning
illustration duo Quang and Lien. A book to treasure.
In Exposing Yoga Myths, Kim, Mel and Ariana combine their extensive
experience as yoga and movement professionals with their shared
love of science and research to tackle yoga myths that range from
the silly to the dangerous - and which they would stop class to
address. Using their fun, straightforward writing style to break
down the latest information in the fields of physiology,
neuroscience and biomechanics, they apply it to casual discussion
of health and yoga asana, making sure that you know yoga facts from
yoga fiction. Whether you're a beginner, regular practitioner or
yoga educator, you're likely to hear one or more of these myths at
some point. But with their help, you can speak up and expose the
misinformation that prevents healthy development of a yoga practice
and the human body, and help improve the ways in which this growing
community thinks about, speaks about, and practices yoga.
