Waking

Book • 2018
Waking is a memoir by Matthew Sanford, a yoga teacher and pioneer in adaptive yoga, chronicling his journey of healing and self-discovery after a car accident left him paralyzed from the chest down at the age of thirteen.

The book explores Sanford's experiences with trauma, disability, and the transformative power of yoga in reconnecting with his body and spirit.

Through vivid prose and profound insights, he reflects on the challenges of living in a body that is both broken and resilient.

Sanford shares his personal experiences and provides a message of hope and inspiration for those seeking wholeness and healing in the face of adversity.

Waking encourages readers to embrace their bodies, find strength in vulnerability, and cultivate a deeper connection to themselves and the world around them.
