Be Here Now

by Ram Dass

​Ram Dass' spiritual journey and his teachings have been hugely influential in both my personal spiritual evolution and in my yoga teaching. This book includes autobiographical information about Ram Dass and his time in India, as well as Ram Dass' own artistic renderings of what he learned during the early days of his spiritual awakening.

The Artist's Way

by Julia Cameron

This book is a classic for those seeking self-discovery and a life full of beauty, creativity, and appreciation. Not just for those who think of themselves as artists! This book includes all the information needed to take a 12-week journey to yourself. The Artist's Way is worth returning to periodically in life to check in with yourself; it's a great tool for ongoing growth and self-inquiry.

I have used the poems, stories, and prayers in this book in my yoga classes for years. This book is thought-provoking and heart-warming in bite-sized pieces. Beyond yoga classes, this would be a great option for page-a-day inspirational reading.
