“As physicians, we are deeply trained in the scientific method and critical analytical thinking as we approach patients and clinical situations. Practicing with Melanie Salvatore-August, I learned of deeper understandings in the realm of the experiential and intuitive yoga practice, a more subtle yet powerful approach to healing, but one that does not exclude our Western medical knowledge. In the pages of Yoga to Support Immunity, Melanie teaches a deep wisdom of the body and life’s energies that we can each understand and use for our growth and well-being.”
—Dr. Dale Poppert, MS, MD, FACEP
