The Body's Grace: A Paralyzed Yoga Teacher's Insights
Matthew Sanford says he's never seen anyone live more deeply in their body -- in

all of life. He's a renowned teacher of yoga. And he's been paralyzed from the

including military veterans. But Matthew Sanford has wisdom for us all on the
strength and grace of our bodies, as we move through the ordinary span of our
lives.
