Attention Yoga Moms and Dads I'm happy to announce that my latest book has just been released by Gyroscope Books, a Chicago-based indie publisher. As much art book as children's picture book, Gaya Lives in a Blue House is a paean to Mother Earth. An inspirational book with a positive message, accompanied by bold Sumi-e ink collages created by my wife, Barbara Cooper. Great for ending a kid's yoga or meditation class. It's currently available in paperback. Click HERE for more details.

Listen to the Author Read My latest project involves making audio recordings of my published work. This project was motivated by the many teachers who've told me that I should record my stories, especially since I sing most of them. So, earlier this year I did just that, I started to record my stories using a digital audio program both to record the story and to build an underlying sound scape to accompany it. I archive these recordings on an online audio database called SoundCloud. Just click HERE and you'll go there.
