It seems that now, more than ever, so many of us doubt ourselves: we don’t believe ourselves to be wise enough, strong enough, smart enough, clever enough, or spiritual enough—when nothing could be further from the truth. We find ourselves searching for meaning in life, wondering what path to take, and asking ourselves “Why am I here?,” “What is my purpose?,” and “What will make me happy?” With her guides illuminating the way, Michelle Stevens helps us to find answers to all these questions and more. The messages will take you on a practical, and profoundly spiritual and personal, journey that leads to the well of confidence, clarity, strength, wisdom, creativity, fearlessness, love, and joy that already exists in our souls. With this discovery of your inner self and strength, you will never again feel as if your life is at the mercy of forces outside of your control, and as a result your experience of yourself and of the world around you will be changed forever. The Soul’s Agenda is a wonderfully presented compilation of a selection of the messages Michelle has received, and continues to receive every day.
Thousands of yoga lovers take teachertraining courses every year with the desire to share what they know and love with others. Many want to make instruction their full-time career, but most training programs don’t equip students with the entrepreneurial skills and savvy they need to make that dream a reality. In The Art and Business of Teaching Yoga: The Yoga Professional’s Guide to a Fulfilling Career, yoga “teacher of teachers” Amy Ippoliti and wellness entrepreneur Taro Smith, PhD, help both beginners and established professionals maximize their impact as teachers while building a fulfilling career. The book expands on their popular “90 Minutes to Change the World” online course that helps yoga teachers take back time on their mat, build a strong student base, become more financially stable, and serve their yoga students in fresh and exciting ways. They walk you through the steps that will benefit and sustain both you and your students. With chapters like “Yoga Business Basics,” “Class Planning and Preparation,” “Presenting Yourself as a Teacher,” and “Social Media,” The Art and Business of Teaching Yoga speaks to yoga teachers at all levels, from the newly trained to the once-a-week teacher, to those with their eye on national, multimedia reach. “We believe in the power of yoga in helping people to live mindful, happy lives, and we know from our personal experience that teaching yoga offers both teacher and student life-changing, life-enhancing benefits,” writes Amy.
DRAWN TOGETHER: A Dharma
Comics Collection on the Curious
Journey Through Life and Love When Leah Pearlman, a young technologist working the dream job at Facebook, learned her father’s lung cancer had gone into remission, her first reaction was to feel too busy with work to deal with it. Realizing her priorities were out of sync, she drew a comic strip to share something heavy in a way that felt light and liberating. She posted it to FB (obviously) and found others connected both with the image, and with her in unexpected ways, so she continued to draw and share them. When her father’s cancer returned and he passed, Leah quit her tech job to draw through her grief and explore her life from an honest place: the ups and the downs, getting lost, getting found, the breakthroughs and the breakups. In Drawn Together, Leah collects favorites from the past seven years in addition to new illustrations that inspire others to live a life of intention and curiosity. The book is separated into sections that explore experiences we all share and the moments that bring us together: Learning to love ourselves; Loving others; Coping with hard times; Choosing the right path for us, and Finding stillness in the chaos. Drawn Together illustrates that whatever we’re going through, someone else has been there and someone understands. PRODUCT REVIEWS
Zing Anything, a provider of active water infusion bottles, has expanded its line to include the Citrus Zinger Infusion Set. Joining the original citrus press and 28oz BPA/EA-free bottle are a cucumber slicer and kiwi reamer.

Zing Anything’s attachments make it easy to enjoy the hydrating properties of water and the nutritional benefits of all-natural ingredients, while diverting consumers away from unhealthy beverage choices packed with refined sugars, artificial flavors, preservatives and coloring. Dishwasher safe, the Citrus Zinger Infusion Set is available online and at retailers ($19.99).
