Imagine a world where everything is connected, where people work together for the mutual benefit of all living things. Imagine a world full of abundance, love, and prosperity, not driven by scarcity and fear. This is the world of Ayni, and the people of the Andes have lived this way for hundreds of years. Join Erin Lucero on her personal journey to inter-connectedness. Following the teachings of yoga and shamanism, she shed the fears and false stories in her own life and found love, balance, and harmony within herself and with the world. She offers her journey, along with several practical exercises, as a roadmap and invitation to find love and harmony in your own life. Through her own inner journey, Erin shows that we are all connected, that the world is full of love, and that we can be a part of making it a better place for all living things. AYNI is a Quechua word that means "Today for you, tomorrow for me." It is a way of life that is based on giving, and an understanding that when you are in need the universe will provide. This idea is the foundation for this book and for an entire way of life, one that frees itself from the patriarchy and the destructive patterns of colonialism. Erin explores this concept through the teachings of yoga and shamanism. The Yoga teachings are based on teachings by Swami Satyananda Saraswati and the ancient yoga texts. The Shamanic teachings are based on the Four Winds Medicine Wheel as developed by Alberto Villoldo, Ph.D, and Erin's journey around this wheel as a student at the Four Winds Institute. The ancient sages and mystics knew and understood the mind-body-spirit connection in a profound way, and we can look to their ancient wisdom to uncover these long-forgotten secrets. Erin shares this wisdom and how she incorporates it into her own life. She also offers simple yet powerful practices that you can try at home.
