After hearing Blair Lewis, PA, speak last weekend at Om Life Yoga, I began reading his book. This is one I must share with you. He brings a modern-day approach to living a healthy, well-balanced and happy life, through incorporating the age-old teachings of Yoga and Meditation. The more we study these ancient teachings, the more we realize they are actually not ancient at all. The teachings of Yoga and Meditation are so prevelant today, because, they are powerful and they work. They teach us that our mind is the most powerful tool we have within us for transforming the state of our Being physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Through learning to focus and control our mind, it is possible to positively affect the state of our health and well-Being.

Here is an excerpt from this awesome book...

"My initial definition of happiness had been freedom from emotional pain, loneliness, and social awkwardness-it was a moving, getting away-from notion-an anything-but-this-would-be-fine strategy. Happiness was freedom, travel, love, sensual pleasure, food, music, etc. All of these forms of happiness invariably failed. They were not long-lasting. They did not cure that inner sense of emptiness-that gut-wrenching bellyache of loneliness.

Happiness is our essential nature. It is not created but rather revealed. You cannot increase the quantity of happiness. It is like the quiet of the early morning-when noise is eliminated, quietness reveals itself.

In my life, I have found multiple levels of "noise" that obliterate happiness. There are foods in our diet that make the body and mind too restless for happiness to be experienced. There is pain and tension throughout the body that barricades happiness deep inside us. There can be relentless train of thoughts and feelings that prevent the presence of happiness from any and all detection. To be happy requires a proper diet, a body that is comfortable and calm, and most importantly, a mind that is sturdy and stable."

Mr. Lewis simply and beautifully explains how to begin to access this infinite Happiness that lies within our Being, and for many of us, is often dormant. He also gives incredible relaxation practices and techniques for helping the reader to cultivate peace in their Body, Mind and Spirit. I've begun to practice some of these techniques and they work incredibly. I encourage you to read this book and allow your essential and ever-present happiness to be revealed.
