Elena Brower is a mama, teacher, author and speaker. She started teaching yoga and meditation in 1999. Her first book, Art of Attention, has been translated into seven languages, and her second, Practice You, published by Sounds True, is a bestseller. It’s also a podcast. Sounds True kindly sent me a copy of Practice You. It’s beautifully produced and looks like the result of an enormous amount of hard work. Being You, in the same format, will be published later this year.

Those impressions are strong in my being, and I’m moved by each type of work that I do. They enrich each other.
Could you tell me when, where, how and why you got into yoga?
After graduating university, my boyfriend’s mum took me to my first class in New York City. I was smitten from moment one. I was used to ballet and this environment was far more generous and supportive.
