Synopsis

World-renowned restorative yoga teacher Jillian Pransky came to the practice of yoga to heal herself. But before that, she avoided her feelings by burying them under a relentless “work hard, play hard” schedule. It wasn’t until a devastating personal loss took her through the dark halls of anxiety and into her own health crisis that she was forced to stop racing around. Since then, Pransky has been devoted to studying and teaching mindfulness practices, deep relaxation, and compassionate listening.In Deep Listening, Pransky presents her signature Calm Body, Clear Mind, Open Heart program—a 10-step journey of self-exploration that she’s taught around the world. It centers on the science of Deep Listening, which allows us to pause and truly hear—often for the first time—what both our bodies and our minds are telling us. It kickstarts our relaxation response, calming muscular tension and setting the whole body up for deep healing, growth, and repair. It’s a new frontier in integrative wellness—the new mindfulness.With her self-guided home retreat, Pransky won’t ask you to “be your best self,” or “do more!” She’ll ask you to “be here” and “do less.” She’ll ask you to pause and tune into yourself and will guide you, step-by-step, into a state of relaxation and openness. Her technique, which integrates tools like breath work, guided meditation, movement, and journaling, in addition to specialized yoga sequences, will help you see yourself as you really are. Once you immerse yourself in the practice of Deep Listening, the inner workings of your mind and body will become crystal clear.

Goodreads review by Laurie

Over the past several months I have been skimming, reading, reskimming and rereading Jillian's book, and each time I take something new from it. Of course, this may be aided by my having studied with Jillian in two restorative teacher trainings and four workshops, all sessions she designed to share......more

This book was really lovely. I hadn't heard of the author and didn't know what to expect. I was very pleased to find that Deep Listening is filled with wisdom, well-written, so peaceful in its tone, and with many, many practices for application. This is not just a yoga book, nor is it a memoir, yet......more

Goodreads review by Anna

An excellent introduction to somato-sensory approaches to movement and life. As someone who has very much resonated with Jillian's "GO GO GO" lifestyle, the ability to slow down and listen to your body is really a fantastic skill. Her detailed pages about restorative yoga were very well put together......more
