LISTEN -Darren Marc- Home Sweet Om


As well as being a singer/song-writer, NY-based artist Darren Marc is a reiki
healer and yogi who says that he is dedicated to spreading positive vibes to as
many people as possible. Through the uplifting, sweet songs on his new
album, he is surely doing that. In this latest release he sings, “Deep inside
there’s a place where we can go. Some call it heaven, I just call it home.”

READ - The Tree of Yoga



  • BKS Iyengar


This yoga classic is certainly a must-read for anyone
not only practicing asanas, but for those interested in
yoga in the broader and truer sense. Iyengar continues
to be one of the great authorities on yoga of our time,
and in this book, he uses the analogy of a tree and its
parts to very simply and concisely break down the
eight limbs of yoga. Yoga is for everyone. Eventually,
we all have to get to the roots of yoga, and work our
way up to the fruit.


Brightening our inner


skies:Yin and yoga


This recently released gem is like
a coffee table book meets yin yoga
bible! Adorned with beautiful images,
the book has had rave reviews from
yin experts Judith Hanson Lasater
and Bernie Clark, who said,
“You will be engaged, entertained
and enlightened.” An exploration
of yoga, self-transformation and
social responsibility, the book
covers well-researched debates,
suggested sequences and some
moving personal stories from the
author. A delightful addition to
the collections of yin lovers.

personal musings of her soul-full
bookshop, and reviews her current
favourite yoga inspirations.

Feeling that 2017 was going to be a year
for positive change, I started wondering,
“What can I offer the world? How can I be
the change I wish to see?” One thing I
have always been sure about is that yoga
changes lives. It has certainly changed
mine, as well as many people’s I know.

Books change lives too. I spent several years studying Vedic scriptures, and have read many


other life-changing books, such asThe Celestine Prophecy,The Bhagavad Gita, Autobiography


of a Yogi and The Prophet. These books have shaped my mind, and continue to do so. I realised I


could combine both of these loves through a bookshop —


so I bit the bullet and purchased The Little Shop of Soul.


I love combining my passions and sharing my two great


loves with people every day!
