This is a real story of a young boy (tween) who was injured in a horrible car accident. If you've ever wondered what it's like to heal - physically and emotionally - from such an experience, this is a must read. And if you've ever felt challenged in a yoga class, Matthew's experience will remind you of just how able-bodied you really are. Fabulous read!

Very interesting story of a 13 year Minnesota boy who is paralyzed after a car accident that kills his father and sister. It follows his life as he describes how he becomes a yoga instructor. The mind-body connection- how interesting!

I love Matthew Sanford's genuine voice. It's plain--this is a book without frills. It is welcoming--Sanford tells a good story. But most of all, this book is driven by passion. Sanford cares so much about the interconnections between body and spirit, his prose can't help but move the reader. When I closed this book, I was struck by how love for a subject can transcend craft.

As a spiritual memoir, I found WAKING refreshing--the primary spiritual practice is yoga, and Sanford does a beautiful job illustrating the power of yoga to bring about wholeness in a broken body. This book is an excellent model for how our bodies are active players in our spiritual lives.… (altro)

Incredible story of a parapalegic man who discovers yoga and eventually becomes a teacher. Through the precise alignment of Iyengar yoga, he regains a subtle, vital connection to his whole body. Inspiring and thought-provoking.
