In this collection of poems and prose, Tias explores the intersection of language, movement and sensory awareness. After years of reading other poets in class, Tias felt called to craft his own passages to help cast light on the hidden spaces within. These poems and passages bid the listener away from the spell of the surface to the depths of being. Tias’s language inspires new sensations and new pathways of embodiment. Each poem awakens a feeling of belonging inside —they are perfect offerings to be shared during meditation or savasana.

In these lyrical meditations, yogi poet Tias Little gives voice to—and guides us deeper into– the sensate, mysterious, wordless depths of somatic spiritual awakening. Each poem is a vinyasa of potent imagery, designed not just to be read, but to be practiced and embodied within the shape-shifting, incantatory magic of yoga. I am savoring these poems on my mat and cushion—and I’ll be sharing them with my fellow travelers on the path of yoga and dharma.
