The Heart of Hatha

The Heart of Hatha: A Journey to Balance, Strength, and Stillness is a profound guide to classical Hatha Yoga that blends ancient wisdom with modern accessibility. Written by Arne Fronsdal a lifelong yogi and global adventurer, this book offers a holistic path through the physical, mental, and spiritual layers of yoga practice. Explore the true meaning of Hatha-the union of sun and moon, strength and stillness-as Storm guides you through foundational postures (asanas), breathwork (pranayama), cleansing rituals (shatkarmas), and meditative insight. Drawing from sacred texts like the Hatha Yoga Pradipika and enriched by personal stories-including a powerful kundalini awakening-the book provides both spiritual depth and practical tools. Perfect for beginners seeking grounding or seasoned practitioners wanting to reconnect with the roots of yoga, The Heart of Hatha invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and rediscover the sacred rhythm within. With each chapter, you'll cultivate inner balance, deepen your practice, and awaken to the stillness that has always lived within you. "Hatha Yoga is not about mastering the pose-it's about meeting yourself in the stillness between breath and being, and discovering the sacred balance that lives within." -Arne Fronsdal, The Heart of Hatha
