Reviews"Yin has been life changing for me; however, I give the initial credit to Travis Eliot. He has this innovative ability to guide students to deeply hear the voice of yin and to taste and see the everlasting life-changing qualities of yin. I am eternally grateful for his unique ability to guide all of us on this yin journey." --Suzanne Imbruno Cobb , Owner of Panacea Yoga Studios "Travis Eliot''s A Journey Into Yin Yoga elevates the science and practice of yin to a new level. Increased information demonstrating the importance of vagus nerve stimulation in controlling inflammation and lowering stress levels makes this a vital book for our times. Whether you are a regular practitioner of yoga, run marathons, do both, or are a couch potato, the information and poses in the book are accessible to you and are a must have for a healthy life!" --Marilyn A. Solsky , MD, Fellow of the American College of Rheumatology "Travis Eliot has a really inspiring balance of insightful wisdom, dynamic encouragement, and a fun sense of humor. The importance of real dudes embracing yin practice for our well rounded well-being can''t be overstated. Travis'' teachings bring genuine love and offer a practice that is healing, inspiring, and effective. Bros, get your yin up!" --Stic of dead prez, Hip Hop Artist, Founder of RBG Fit Club, Healthy Gangsta "Travis Eliot is like a yogi poet . . . bathing your connective tissue with prana as he wisely guides you deeply into the geometry of the asana. His wisdom teaching is rich in classical yogic philosophy with modern-day usefulness.

I highly recommend A Journey Into Yin Yoga! " --Bernice Chao , Creative Director and President of TEDxCulverCity "Travis Eliot''s teachings and classes are the most engaging I''ve taken and go much deeper than most yoga teachings out there.
