The Distracted Centipede

The Distracted Centipede is about awakening to the unified sense of your whole being - body, mind, spirit - through the practice of Yoga and Mindfulness. It is about listening and tuning in to your body, gradually realising that the wholeness can only be retrieved by identifying and letting go of unnecessary holding on. If you can stop straining you might discover that inside the tense, unbalanced body there is a 'sensible body', which can be effortlessly at ease with the energy flowing freely and the mind becoming calm. In the midst of the mental storm there is stillness where we can experience our presence. A word of warning: Practice of Yoga and mindfulness might open your heart to spontaneous joy and compassion and put a smile on your face. Who is this book for? This book is for everybody, regardless of age, physical condition, sex, religious beliefs. It is based on the common sense that our mental, physical and spiritual health depends on our being able to take on the management of our inner world... by entering the journey of becoming aware, letting go of our restrictive conditioning and opening our heart to love. It is never too early and never too late to start and continue! 'A book that is meticulously honest, based on over thirty years of practise and teaching Yoga on a journey that has been no stranger to suffering and struggle.' Dr Leon Redler MD 'This book will have a very important influence.' Igor Charkowsky
