As you can guess, the answer to the title question is Yes. But the real question addressed here is: How? Cope, a scholar-in-residence at the Kripalu Center for Yoga & Health in Lenox, Massachusetts, has collected essays and commentary from twenty-six prominent practitioners and teachers (including Lilias Folan, Cyndi Lee, and Rod Stryker) who share personal accounts of how yoga and meditation have influenced their lives. What’s interesting is how varied their experiences are, and how they can help shape your expectations about your own yoga practice. Certainly for some of the writers, yoga and meditation provided a bolt from the blue transformative experience, while for others, the influence was evolutionary. Somewhere in these pages you’ll find yourself “what you’ve achieved or what you hope to achieve through your practice. And everywhere you’ll be reminded of the power for change harnessed in yoga and meditation.
