First off, I have to say that this is a fantastic (Kokoro Yoga: Maximize your human potential and develop the spirt of a warrior by Mark Divine and Catherine Divine) book. As a lifetime student (and teacher) of numerous martial art systems (Judo, Jujitsu, Karate-Do, Boxing, Kickboxing, Wrestling, Target focus Training, Combatives) I am always seeing unique and innovative physical fitness routines. Even though I am a senior in my 70s I have always lived my life as a warrior seeking out challenging fitness programs such as U.S. NAVY SEAL workouts, WOD programs, Circuit programs and numerous other routines to challenge the body and mind. When I saw this book on Amazon I had to have it and I just finished reading this 267 Soft Cover book. I love this book for a lot of reasons. For one thing his life time interest and search for Bushido, the way of the warrior is something I can relate to in my own life. My lifelong interest in developing my mind, body and spirit has been continuing journey. Like the author, I was in the U.S. Navy but unlike him I never became a U.S. Navy SEAL.Yoga was one of the exercise and meditation arts I have always had in my exercise routines and this book really reinforced my interest in this warrior art. This great book is filled with incredible information and detailed advice on numerous warrior spirit (Kokoro) fitness programs. I was amazed at how my own personal every day fitness routine very closely matched some of the ones in this book. Besides a rugged WOD HIIT workout, I always end my workout with more than 50 Yoga postures (asanas) of which most are shown in this fantastic book.This excellent volume is organized into 8 detailed chapters. The first chapter covers the author’s personal experience explaining how he became a U.S. Navy SEAL, and how his journey began with his study of Seido Karate and many other warrior arts. He also explains the various types of Yoga he has studied. The second chapter (The Pursuit of Maximum Human Potential) goes into detail on the philosophy and practice of Yoga. The third chapter explores the strategies of Kokoro Yoga. Tactics involved in the practice of warrior arts are covered in chapter four. Chapter five explains “Core and supporting sequences." The various poses and movements are covered in chapter six. Chapter seven focuses on the “Physiological and psychological benefits of Yoga.” The final chapter gives advice on “developing a personal practice." Do not pass on the Appendix sections because they have a lot of valuable information.This short review cannot do justice to the many positives things you will learn reading this book. If you are seeking a guide to achieve the ultimate in warrior fitness of mind, body and spirit this book is for you. I have created my own daily fitness routine combining the movements and exercises shown in this book. I really loved this book.Rating: 5 Stars. Joseph J.
