The Yoga of Discipline

Summary: This is a great book!!!!
Review: The chapter on eating is absolutely essential for anyone with food issues. It's a totally spiritual approach to eating and food that has changed my life, and my health. Don't be fooled by the word "discipline." Gurumayi is a yogi and when she talks about discipline it has nothing to do with harsh restrictions or anything like that. With food, for example, she talks about its sacredness, and how it is a form of God. One of her main teachings is that God dwells within everyone and she goes into an explanation of how when we eat we are actually feeding God within us. She presents the body as a temple of God, something that's sacred because of that and so it's important to treat the body with the highest respect. Eating, she says, is an incredibly sacred act. Food itself is sacred. This is such an uplifting and life-changing book for me. Since reading it I have come to respect my body and take care of it. I've changed my dietery habits and feel much better about the way I eat, what I eat. I'm more conscious. I highly recommend this book.
