A catchy title is the first example of the creative use of metaphors which fill Taking Yoga Off the Mat, by Jenni Carmichael Clark. The philosophy is simple, "We can do hard things ON the mat. So, we can also do hard things when we roll it up and leave. We can handle challenges ON the mat, and we can handle what we face OFF the mat as well." While it may sound like a book written for yoga enthusiasts, every chapter introduces imaginative concepts which have universal application. Some messages refer to specific yoga poses where Jenni provides ideas on how to apply the exercise principles in day-to-day life. In the Chapter, Get Your Ticket for The Happiness Express, Jenni pulls back the curtain to the most common, yet elusive, trait we are all seeking... happiness... and shows its relation to (you guessed it) ...yoga! "I have heard it said that 'Happiness is a decision, not an occurrence.' That it's something you choose. No matter what comes at you, you can decide whether to allow it to thwart your joy or strengthen your spirit. That Finding Joy is not the same as Living in Joy. I learn that in my yoga practice. No matter what pose I am faced with, or how difficult/easy it might be, I can determine how to react and manage the challenges it presents. I can choose my response. And I can take that decision off the mat every time I walk back into the world." --Taking Yoga Off the Mat pg. 103 In the chapter titled, Taking Child's Pose... Inconceivable! Jenni uses multiple (surprisingly fitting) references from the story, Princess Bride, to show how something perceived as a simpler stretch, the Child's Pose, is much more complex than it appears. Jenni explains, "Child's Pose actually takes me deeper. It gives me a chance to reset, reflect, meditate, and get ready for what comes next in my own time. To find my breath and go deeper inside myself." Many themes throughout the book speak to the heart of a mother, high-five an adventurer, honor the curiosity and wonderment of a child, and encourage bravery and resilience. Jenni is promoting what she often calls her "Disney Philosophy," which is to Believe in Impossible Things, Have Courage & Be Kind, and Do The Next Right Thing. As Walt Disney said, "Around here, we don't look backwards for very long. We keep moving forward--opening new doors and doing new things--because we're curious. And curiosity keeps leading us down new paths!" Jenni echoes these words of Walt Disney and exclaims, "that's my Alice 'Muchness' philosophy in a nutshell!" From the beginning in the Author's Note, readers will discover a kindred spirit in Jenni Carmichael Clark. It is as if Jenni has always been the best friend you turn to for encouragement, when you need a good laugh, or are hungry for a reminder that despite all of its adversity, life is a fascinating and worthwhile adventure! In the chapter titled, What's Next? Jenni brings her readers to the ice rink and reminds them that, "Despite bumps in the ice that cause you to take a tumble or two, the skating is amazing!" Towards the end of her book, Jenni gives the compassionate encouragement we all need, "I know firsthand that stars shine more brilliantly in the deep darkness. I've huddled in the dark and gazed at them up there, twinkling. We just do the work and then we let it go--in class and in life. On the mat and off of it." Jenni began writing reflective essays and thoughts in a blog she started in 2013 called My Own Little Corner by Jenni (myownlittlecornerbyJenni.Wordpress.com). As she found clarity and grace on her yoga mat, Jenni decided to share more of these themes in her first book, Taking Yoga Off the Mat. Learn more at www.TakingYogaOffTheMat.com

Enlightenment is nothing like you think it will be. Yoga is not the destination - it's only the first step. This is a punchy, first-person account of the path to Enlightenment in contemporary times. Explored through conversation, story, jokes, and vision, it embraces with honesty the hardship and humor required to wake up before you get there. This is an insightful, tough, funny yoga-based book that picks up where almost all yoga books leave off. Regular yoga practice is the first step on the path to awakening. It is not the destination. This book is aimed at everyone who is ready to wake up and start living their dream. It hands the power to create the life you want back to you. An advocate for change, the book asks you to stop making excuses as to why you can't have what you want to have. Instead, it asks you to look at why you want what you think you want and what you might need to let go of in order to achieve it. But this book is not about quick fixes. No amount of visualizing a big bank account is going to fill yours without you being aligned to your True Self and acting with clear intention. It is as much a book for people wanting change in their lives as it is for experienced yogis/yoginis looking to deepen their practice or take the next step towards Awakening.

Practicing yoga is an invitation to live up to our potential as human beings. So our mat becomes a catalyst for transformation. When we assume a yoga pose, it is not necessarily the shape of the body that counts. Rather, it is a chance to create an offering of the highest intention in our hearts. Practicing becomes our path, as we grow not just older, but better, wiser and stronger. We become so much more, both for ourselves and for those we love, every time we surrender to something greater, like Grace. Grace is in many ways reflective of the attitude we bring to the mat. It is the difference between a yoga practice that leaves you radically transformed and an exercise class. It’s the difference between feeling full of hope and potential, or feeling like a schmuck. Our attitude creates the distinction between growing better, wiser and stronger on the mat, or afraid that we’re going to die every time we bend over. “In the beginning,” the author explains, “I did not know that I needed Grace. After all, I had gone through the better part of my life without anything nearly looking like Grace. You should see me dance or sing. Oh my God! A goose suffering an epileptic attack would describe my attempts at being graceful. I would never be mistaken for a soul sister. “Then one day on my mat, struggling for the millionth time to touch my toes, I gave up. I said, ‘To hell with it.’ And that’s when it happened. The tension in my body released and I lowered down another six inches toward the floor. I got so excited I almost pulled a hamstring. All the years I had been practicing yoga I thought what I needed to touch my toes and to get better in general was more effort. But in fact, I needed more Grace.” Living with ease is Grace. Living with forgiveness and acceptance is Grace. Taking the good with the bad is Grace. Saying “yes” first, rather than “no,” is Grace. Trying new experiences with a light heart is Grace. Knowing that we are filled with forgiveness just because we were born is Grace. You will need equal parts of redemption and emancipation to find transformation, which is not easy. “Today,” the author explains, “I am stronger and more vibrant than ever before. I hauled my tired old ass out of a steep depression to live a better life. I hope to make the second half of my life my best achievement yet. The journey begins with Grace.”

"Yoga practitioners fight work stress with stretching and breathing exercises-but does yoga stop when you step off the mat? In this surprising book, the authors show why poses-asanas-are just one part of yoga practice. There are seven other "limbs" of yoga that are often neglected, especially during the workday"--

Is there something you want to achieve or obtain? Jenny provides a new approach to creating positive change through seemingly unrelated and enjoyable activities. If you are not getting the results you want from your yen or what you may call your longings, yearnings, desires, goals, or dreams then give this a try. "Mind Over Mat" will provide new perspective and options. You will first identify the primary feeling or emotion that is holding you back from achieving your objectives. Using the illustrations, you can identify the underlying imbalance and select from a variety of activities to create balance and achieve success. Here are some examples: - Once you shift from insecurity to confidence you will then find it is much easier to tackle big goals like finding a new job or relationship. - Once you shift from feeling sluggish or apathetic to energetic you will find you have a renewed passion for all goals including health and wellness. - Let's say you've been really working at achieving your goal and are not getting the results you want. If you feel frustrated or disappointed you will learn how to find a new source of stamina by first taking time to relax, center and regroup. Sometimes the best thing you can do is to stop multi-tasking and focus. Once you achieve more positive feelings and have some fun with "Mind Over Mat" you can move on to Jenny's other two books, which will provide a more pragmatic approach to achieving your goals.
