Embodying Spirit with Ana Forrest
Does your practice brighten or dim your spirit? Make the choice to brighten up and fascinate in process! Forrest Yoga teaches you to focus your intent on connecting to and Embodying your Spirt. How? By choosing, in the moment, to breathe in a way that brightens you: to do your poses in a way that invites your Spirit to permeate into all of your body. This welcomes your Spirit home.

Praise for Fierce Medicine by Ana Forrest:
"Fierce Medicine is classic Ana Forrest: straight ahead life tales from one of the meteors of the modern yoga movement...laced with the intense focus of a Tiger seeking the freedom of the heart."
—John Friend, founder of Anusara yoga
"Ana Forrest has been a pioneer spirit in excavating the truths of our embodied experience. Like never before, she has courageously opened her life to share her own powerful experience through yoga as a way of liberating all beings to follow their own authentic journey of mending the sacred wheel of their life through breath, body, and spirit."
—Shiva Rea, yogini
"Ana Forrest is a phenomenon: Her breathtaking yogic abilities and extraordinary, passionate teaching inspire and challenge people to go continually deeper. Ana's unique journey of triumph over adversities leads people to find strength from within."
—Joel Kramer and Diana Alstad, coauthors of The Passionate Mind Revisited and The Guru Papers
"Fierce Medicine is a brave, confronting, and unapologetically honest book that leads us to see into the depths of our soul and know that transformation is possible. Through stories and techniques Ana Forrest teaches us how to reclaim our bodies, expand our perceptions, and embrace the complexity of our spirit. As a teacher, this is a book that I would certainly share with my students, but as a student myself, there is much in this book that will aid in my own growth and for that I am grateful. I highly recommend this book to all seekers on the path."
—Seane Corn, internationally acclaimed yoga teacher and activist
"Fierce Medicine is much more than just another yoga book. It's the 'crazy wisdom' and riveting life story of an in-your-face, stir-it-up kind of teacher. Ana Forrest also happens to be an amazing healer, one who regularly guides her students into personal transformations and deep healing. What she asks may not be easy, but few things this good are."
—Timothy McCall, M.D., medical editor of Yoga Journal and author of Yoga as Medicine
