Description

Embrace rest as an essential practice for modern living with the gift that is Śavāsana: yoga’s most powerful—and perhaps misunderstood—pose. Mother-daughter yoga duo Judith Hanson Lasater and Lizzie Lasater unpack the profound nature of this pose and reveal how deeply transformative and healing it is, personally and energetically. The second volume in the Yoga Masters Series, a landmark collection translating the timeless wisdom of traditional yoga for the modern practitioner. In a world that glorifies constant motion and productivity, Judith Hanson Lasater and Lizzie Lasater combine decades of yoga expertise with contemporary science to illuminate the profound impact of Śavāsana, or “corpse pose,” on your physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Through personal narratives, scientific insights, and practical instructions, this book guides you beyond the common misconception that rest is merely a luxury. The authors share their intimate journeys with Śavāsana—from Judith’s experience with deep grief to Lizzie’s postpartum healing—while offering variations suitable for all body types and lifestyles. Hand-drawn illustrations and thoughtful journaling prompts enhance your learning experience. You’ll discover how this seemingly simple pose can regulate your nervous system, improve sleep quality, and restore emotional balance. Experienced yoga practitioners and teachers will appreciate the depth and potency of this guide—and the opportunity to understand and more authentically embody this profound practice. More than just a yoga guide, this book is your invitation to embrace rest as an essential practice for modern living.
