<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>A book for any yoga teacher who has ever stood at the front of a class and thought, "What the hell am I doing?"</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Tori has done a lot of f*cked up things in the pursuit of being a "good" yoga teacher. She didn't mean to be f*cked up; f*cked up things just happened while she was busy attempting to be a personable sage and humble expert on philosophy, mediation, anatomy, functional movement, energy healing, and everything else a yoga teacher is supposed to be good at. It never occurred to her that how she was going about teaching all this expertise might be, well, f*cked up, or potentially even harmful to herself and others.</p><p>It's a common misstep for yoga teachers: we get so focused on learning everything there is to know about yoga that we overlook the importance of learning how to skillfully teach these things to people. Despite our best of intentions and, usually without realizing it, we fall into common traps like manipulation, elitism, imposter syndrome, and bewilderment when it comes to applying any sort of personal and professional boundaries to what we do. </p><p>This is a book about how we all mess up and how we can all do better. No Shame. No right or wrong answers. No arbitrary life advice. Through a mix of personal stories, guided reflections, and best practices taken from her experience as a social worker, Tori offers up an easy-to-follow guide for any teacher wanting to show up more reliably for themselves and those whom they teach.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"This book is what is missing from Yoga Teacher Training reading lists, in my humble opinion. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll scream, but most importantly, you'll think, you'll learn, and you'll reflect." -K. Wood</p><p><br></p><p>"Tori shares the real experience of life as a full time yoga teachers. I so appreciate this marriage of her personal experience teaching and learning with her experience in social work. How can we as teachers better apply tools of best practice to provide a container of critical engagement, learning as we go. Tori's honesty about herself and skilled writing invites us all to self-reflect on how we share practices of self-care, techniques of inquiry, and collective wellbeing. I'm so glad she's shared this helpful tool with all of us and hope many others will be inspired to do the same!" -M. McLaughlin</p><p><br></p><p>"This "real talk" approach to teaching yoga doesn't just list ways "how not to teach yoga," but truly empowers instructors to think of and implement better ways of teaching - starting with themselves. I'm looking forward to using this awesome book as a reference and resource in my upcoming 200-hour YTT." -K. D. Blakey</p><br>
