Book Review: -highly recommend-
Summary: 5 Stars
For me, this is one of those books that you cant wait to finish so you begin reading it again. Darren has a unique talent for bringing ancient yogic philosophy into modern day terms. I just attended his 3 day workshop in Denver. I am inspired to say the least.Book Review: The road to being an urban mystic

Darren gives you insight in how one can practice yoga and spirituality while living the modern life. His stories with playfulness and compassion, illustrate how we can stay on the path. You can feel his warmth come through his writing. Urban Mystic is delightful to read and always brings a smile to my face. Book Review: Real, just like the author
Summary: 5 Stars
I have almost finished reading the book for a second time. I first read it as I was beginning my yoga practice. At that time, it was an excellent introduction into yoga and its terms. Now that I am more familiar with yoga, I am finding deeper meaning in Darren's writing.
As one of Darren's students, I read this book and picture Darren saying the words to me. He writes in the very real style that he teaches and lives. He is open and honest about his path and what he has learned along the way.

Summary: 5 Stars
Yoga and the Path of the Urban Mystic changed my life, and it will change the life of anyone who is open to healing through and learning about the practice of yoga. Darren's writing is human, playful and honest. It is as if he is right there in the room next to you, talking as a friend. If you want to make the world a better place, give yourself and someone else this book to read.Book Review: Yoga and the Path of the Urban Mystic
Summary: 5 Stars
In his book, Darren Main clearly outlines the ancient Eight-Limbed system of Yoga originaly expounded by the Indian sage Patanjali. Darren brings this ancient path towards union into our cultural context by illustrating his own experience in order to bring yoga to life.
I suggest this book both to those new to Yoga and those with a dedicated practice.
Two friends of mine want me to teach them yoga this summer, and I am making them read this book first, so they know that yoga is not limited to the practice of asana.
