People are Talking About Our Book

Words from our Readers

“This book has been so very important in my recovery from surgery and the chemo currently undergoing. The yoga practices designed have helped me with range of motion, detox, lymphedema, neuropathy and general well being. I have incorporated the practices on a daily basis depending on my needs that day. I owe my positive reactions to treatment in great part to this book. Being relatively young when diagnosed and treated, it is so important to me to maintain my strength and well being and this has been a vital part of my treatment/recovery.”

“Yoga For Cancer an instrumental aspect of healing, surviving and thriving after treatment.”

“As a general oncologist, I wholeheartedly support Yoga for Cancer. Tari has successfully blended the ancient art of yoga with the contemporary art of oncology in a beautifully mindful but scientifically based manner.”

“A must have for any yoga teacher sharing yoga with the cancer community or who has cancer patients in their class. A great resource for cancer patients who may have had a yoga practice previously or are new to yoga to continue their yoga practice during their cancer journey. Tari explains the science behind cancer and the immune system far better than some in the academic and medical community. A must read to understand what cancer is, how it works in the body, and how yoga can help you heal and improve your health and immune system strength overall!”

We have compiled a list and created a bookstore for ease of shopping. Plus, the commission is donated to fund scholarships, free resources, research, and outreach projects (e.g. instead of going to Amazon’s pocket).
