Hello, Nausea. How Are You Today? eBook

When Julie Shaw was diagnosed with breast cancer, she turned to what she knew best to navigate months of treatment-her decades-long yoga practice. In this candid memoir/handbook, Julie, a certified yoga therapist, shares stories about her experiences during cancer, along with many accessible yoga practices to address the myriad symptoms that came with it. The practices are intended to be adaptable, providing for any combination of breathing exercises, yoga postures, mindful awareness, and meditation techniques the reader might need to address their individual needs.Through the lens of yoga, Julie offers insights that can help anyone experiencing cancer see a bigger picture, tap into inner strengths, and recognize that who we truly are is not defined by either external or internal circumstances, whether they are painful or happy. Rather, she asserts with both humor and frankness that our true nature is the calm, peaceful essence at the heart of our being.With a foreword by master yoga teacher, Gary Kraftsow, this book aims to offer tools to those who are experiencing cancer and would like some gentle help along the way.
