Yoga Is - A Film About The Transformational Power Of Yoga DVD by Suzanne Bryant (Preowned)

Thirty million Americans and countless millions worldwide have taken up a practice that is transforming their lives. Follow filmmaker Suzanne Bryant as she meets with many of the most prominent Yoga Gurus and teachers in the West and travels to India to explore the power of this ancient practice. Along the way she discovers what YOGA IS.

This is the story of a woman who thought she had it all...then one day...everything changed with the loss of her 57-year-old mother to breast cancer. Feeling lost, she embarked on a journey looking for answers and turned to a deeper practice of yoga.

Suzanne's journey led her to India on a spiritual quest to learn more about this powerful ancient practice. She studied yoga and Ayurveda in Kerala, Ashtanga Yoga with Pattabhis Jois and his daughter Saraswati, met with Guru Neem Karoli Baba's son in Vrindavan to learn about Bhakti Yoga and came face to face with a near death experience herself. While in India, something had shifted within her, the light had returned.

Inspired by her experience in India, she returned back to the U.S. to explore what yoga means to the West and how it can transform lives.

Suzanne met with the most prominent Western Yoga Gurus and teachers as well as celebrity yoga devotees Russell Simmons, Christy Turlington, musician Michael Franti and Buddhist scholar Robert Thurman in search of the answers that unite us all. What she found was something wonder-ful: a path that can enable anyone to transform suffering and experience daily peace and happiness.
