Yoga: A Path to Self-Love

What single factor determines every aspect of how we live and every relationship we have?

This provocative question is at the core of this raw and powerful book Yoga: A path to self-love. How much or how little we love ourselves ultimately determines the very quality and richness of our lives. This book explores how the practices of yoga and mindfulness help us develop a deep and unconditional love for ourselves.

The breakdown of her marriage, and a transformative experience on her yoga mat, led Nikki to explore the true healing power of yoga. Having practiced yoga for almost 25 years, Nikki shares what she has learned from her own journey with candid openness and wisdom. By drawing on personal experiences and the ancient teachings of yoga, Nikki shows us:

•What authentic self-love really means and what often blocks us from achieving it
•Easy techniques we can use straight away to increase our feelings of love and self-worth
•Why cultivating awareness through mindful practices like meditation is crucial to fostering authentic self-love
•How the physical yoga practice can lead to a deeper connection to self
•What the other limbs of yoga offer us on our path towards genuine self-love
•Why letting go of past hurts is key to loving ourselves wholeheartedly
•How forgiveness and perspective can lead to fulfilment

No matter where you are on your yoga journey, this book shows us what’s possible when we can forgive ourselves and others, tap into our own innate wisdom and support ourselves with kindness, compassion and love.

Praise for Yoga: A Path to Self-Love

Yoga: A path to self-love is a beautiful book for anyone craving the chance to live more simply, mindfully and with more self-love and care. Nikki’s book has personally given me the permission needed to see that looking after myself first is essential. Nikki herself is proof that the physical practice of yoga, along with regular meditation, can help us deal with all of life’s difficulties, in often unexpected ways.

It’s one of the most well rounded, practical books I’ve come across to make real, lasting change in the pursuit of inner contentment. A perfect life guide for anyone who’s too busy, stressed, anxious, or simply stuck in a rut. Nikki’s tips will help you create more space to simply enjoy your best life, whatever that looks like to you. I will treasure this book always, and read it time and time again.

Yoga has so many rich teachings to offer and Nikki breaks them down into simple tools we can all use to live a full life right now! The message of ‘self-love’ empowers us to do the inner work so that our outer world reflects that. I love how she shares her personal experiences throughout as examples of how powerfully the tools have impacted her life. Yoga: A path to self-love is both arresting and insightful. I read it in one sitting!
