Truth: Next Exit
A spiritual approach to wellness, with emphasis on stories from the Bible/Torah, and a focus on Christianity and Judaism beliefs.
Raise the Snake
A scientific approach to the study of Chakras and esoteric practices, weeding out practices that currently show no basis in science while supporting esoteric practices that are strongly connected to science.
The Yoga Textbook
A guide for teachers and seekers. Everything from what to look for in a studio or teacher to how to be that studio or teacher that is approachable, safe, productive and positive for students. Topics include the evolution of yoga, Ayurveda, Sutras, recoverable disease dangers on the mat, how to instruct, and much more.
Fattitude: Lose your F in Attitude
Lose fear, fat, frustration, fibromyalgia and so much more by changing the way you think, by being empowered with knowledge based from science not myths based out of socially accepted norms.
