"Unroll your yoga mat, open your sketchbook, and allow your innate creativity to flourish, guided by this irresistible, inspiring book. Internationally renowned artist and yoga teacher Hari Kirin Kaur Khalsa draws on a lifetime's worth of hands-on experience in the art studio, and her many years as a student of Yogi Bhajan, to create a fully integrated practice of art and yoga that is accessible to newcomers and seasoned practitioners alike. Through the integration of movement and meditative awareness, heart-opening yoga practices, and joyfully creative art exercises, we are reminded of the beauty of self-expression and the interdependence of all things. As Hari Kirin so generously demonstrates, Art & Yoga has the power to heal the mind, the spirit, and the body; it may even begin to heal the world. -Katrina Kenison, author of The Gift of an Ordinary Day

"So many within the art and healing community long for a book integrating the traditions of yoga, contemplative practice, and creative expression, that longing is realized here with clarity, precision, and visual elegance. Art & Yoga inspires and invites participation and discovery; it is an exercise of the embodied intelligence and imagination carried by the deep streams of the respective traditions and renewed through their partnership which Hari Kirin has embraced as her life's work". -Shaun McNiff, Lesley University
