In the course of telling her story and baring her soul, many people from all walks of life will relate to her difficult and sometimes shocking situations that are forcing her to change! Through her awakening, she gives hope to readers by using spiritual practices, eternal truths and secrets to life that teach us how to cultivate peace and love and to develop health and happiness.In her engaging memoir Joanne draws from eighteen years of experience teaching yoga, but this is not solely a book for readers that practice the discipline; it's a book about fulfilling your spiritual purpose, manifesting your material goals and learning to love yourself, all beings and our magnificent Mother Earth.
