THE DIAMOND OF YOGA: ASANA AND PRACTICES FOR THE EXPANSION OF CONSCIOUSNESS

If you look at the world around you and feel that there is something missing, something more meaningful that you feel is almost at your fingertips but you can't quite grasp, if you are searching for greater fulfilment, The Diamond of Yoga offers you an unexpected opportunity, a new and free way of relating to yourself and your surroundings.
This book is a tool to help you awaken your inner wisdom, an invaluable manual that offers you the chance to develop the wisdom you need to live your daily life with joy, wonder and deep awareness.
Here you will also learn how to perform 80 yoga postures: you will find descriptions of sequences whose regular practice enhances the holistic health of the body, leading to emotional release and stress reduction. You will learn deep breathing techniques that expand your life force and, more importantly, you will discover a new way of connecting with the mind that will open you to surprising horizons of perception, light and direction.
Each of us is unique; giving space to your uniqueness, freeing yourself from the process of standardisation, is what leads to true happiness. Here you'll find practical tools to use in your everyday life that will lead you to emancipate yourself more and more from the conventional. Expand your state of consciousness into new and unexpected territories. The time we are living in needs free individuals who, together, open up to a condition of true harmony. Together we can create a better world.
The greatest limitation we place on ourselves is to believe that we do not have access to a higher possibility, in every area of our lives. The Yoga Diamond offers you the chance to go beyond this limit.
Morena Calandri and Miro Foresta, teachers of Yoga and meditation, have been walking the path of Yoga for a long time and share here what they have learned from their interaction with the great Avatar of Enlightenment Sri AmmaBhagavan: an ancient methodology, unknown to most, that uses the technology of consciousness to take you beyond the limits of the known, beyond the limits of yourself, to new horizons of happiness, contentment, wholeness.
Without being aware of it, we are all trying to move from the condition of separation to the condition of Oneness. You may not realize it now, but it is from there, from the state of Oneness, that we all come, and it is there that we can find all that we most yearn for. Being One with life corresponds to happiness, satisfaction and expansion.
We can see our yearning for Oneness in every little event of everyday life: you are having dinner with close friends, there is an atmosphere of warm fellowship, the conversation is pleasant and fun, you are just fine, you are one with friends, everything is smooth and natural, you feel a sense of belonging to this small group, there is Oneness among you!
You find yourself at a dinner party with people who are almost strangers, with whom you really have nothing to say. You feel light years away from the conversation they are having, there is no community with them, there is no Oneness with this group. You can't wait for the dinner to end.
You are on vacation at the beach of your dreams, but your mind keeps returning to the problems you have at work, you cannot be one with the beautiful dimension of the beach. You feel a subtle sense of frustration.
You are walking in a beautiful forest, you smell the scent of the trees, the smell of the moss, the colors, the sounds of the birds, the moist soft earth under your feet, the sun rays reaching you through the leafy branches; you are immersed in it all, you are one with the forest. A sublime experience!
These are just a few examples; there is no limit to how deep we can go in the state of Oneness.
The Yoga Diamond offers you a specific methodology to travel from the dimension of separation to the dimension of Oneness. And much more...
