Go In and In: Poems From the Heart of Yoga

by Danna Faulds

Here are poems that put words to the ineffable experiences that yoga practitioners have all the time, those moments when separation drops away, and body, mind and spirit become one. Inspired by the experiences of yoga and meditation, the natural world, and the challenges of life itself, these poems capture both the struggle and the delight of the author's attempt to live consciously. They speak in a voice that is both encouraging and uplifting, yet they are simple and accessible.

This book of poems took me a while to work to through. Each poem left cause for deep reflection and thought. Some definitely resinated with me more than others and many required several rereads to truly absorb the meaning.

" Go in and in. Be the space. between two cells,. the vast, resounding. silence in which. spirit dwells...."

That is the most beautiful poem this woman wrote.... I've read the entire book but that is the one that I have memorized and cherish deeply.

Dana Faulds has a beautiful way to describe the spirit of yoga, and this is the best reading after practice and during meditation or right before students get out of Savasana.

I was reading a poem after each yoga session. I should start doing this again.
