Synopses & Reviews
Yogis have been using cannabis to enhance spiritual practice for millennia. Unfortunately, we've lost this tradition in the modern practice of yoga, and along with it the ability to truly relax, self-connect, and find peace. In Ganja Yoga, Dee Dussault, certified yoga instructor and the first person to bring ganja yoga classes to North America, finally takes this ancient tradition mainstream.
Suitable for beginners and sages alike, Ganja Yoga will show you how to:
• Reap the benefits of cannabis' scientifically proven effects on mental and physical conditions
• Assume an altered state in a safe, energizing way
• Reconnect with the body and enjoy a form of exercise that is inwardly-focused and accessible to anyone
• Select the best setting, time, method of consumption, strains, poses, and breathing techniques to ensure an excellent experience
As cannabis is embraced more and more as a source of health and well-being, there is a growing cultural conversation about the role of the plant as part of a spiritual journey. Ganja Yoga is a welcoming guide through that process, offering a path to intentional relaxation that encourages meditation, movement, and awareness for a more stress-free, harmonious world.
Review
"Hip, user-friendly…Dussault employs both scientific studies and humor while handing out tips on safe consumption and class etiquette…though some yoga purists may resist the concept, Dussault makes an entertaining and well-informed case for the marriage of cannabis and yoga." Publishers Weekly
