She first made her name in gardening, writing a classic gardening book among other things. She now has a hugely popular gardening blog, "A Way to Garden."

Download or read book Pick Your Yoga Practice written by Meagan McCrary and published by New World Library. This book was released on 2013-11-01 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the surface it may appear that yoga is yoga is yoga, but take a closer look and you’ll discover myriad different yoga systems and lineages. There are dozens of yoga styles to choose from, and while yoga is for everyone, not every style is the perfect fit for every person. But how do you choose between mysterious-sounding names such as Ashtanga, Kundalini, Bikram, and Kripalu? As Meagan McCrary discovered when she began exploring different classes, finding the right style is essential for establishing a steady yoga practice. Pick Your Yoga Practice is the first book to describe the most prominent yoga styles in depth, including teaching methodology, elements of practice, philosophical and spiritual underpinnings, class structure, physical exertion, and personal attention. Those new to yoga will discover they have options and can confidently attend a class of their choosing, while experienced practitioners will expand their understanding of the vast world of modern yoga, and perhaps find themselves venturing into new territory.

Download or read book How to Develop the Authentic Leader in You written by Nicole M. Heimann and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2018-01-26 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We need to shift the current leadership paradigm: to move from the idea of exercising power over others to the practice of using your inner power to influence people. This requires a passionate commitment: to get access to our inner power, we need to get over ourselves first. Truly authentic leadership holds the power from within to create the deep transformation that today’s business world requires. A leader who leads from a place of authenticity “knows” himself: he has gone inward and knows his ego parts, conditionings, sabotaging behaviors, and wounds. He also knows his strengths, his power, his charisma, his essence. When you as a leader choose to invest in your own continuous inner growth, you will also be investing in the biggest growth potential for your organization. When as a leader you raise your consciousness through a process of inner growth, you inherently raise the bar for the organization as well. Authenticity is a never-ending inner growth process, and it opens up the way to create the deep transformations that today’s business world requires. It takes only one visionary and courageous leader to step out and lead the way. In this book author, CEO & Lifestyle Coach, Nicole Maria Heimann shows you how to access and transform the way you lead using her model of integrating “The Seven Dimensions of Leadership Intelligence.”
