Book Description

October 26, 2007
How can we get on the road to true happiness, peace, and equanimity? Is it possible to find it in this lifetime? The Only Way Out Is In, addresses these questions and gives an answer to man's relentless lifelong quest of looking outside oneself and chasing this inevitable illusion when the answer is simply to look within! This book offers guidance for each individual to look inside and live in the here and now, using the ancient practices of Ashtanga Yoga, Ayurveda, and Tantra in daily living. It affirms that the way "In," can be found by the practices of self-study offered by these three sciences. Utilizing the synergy of the three is one of the most powerful practices for the journey within. Each one has it's own unique qualities of clearing, building, and cultivating the needed energy to ascend. Ashtanga Yoga does this through the practices of yogic postures, breathing, and awareness techniques while using the body as a vehicle for transformation. Ayurveda assists each individual by creating a blueprint for which to live a healthy, vibrant life, as well as to understand your own unique place in the natural order of the Universe. Tantra guides readers further within by connecting people with their own inherent wisdom through the concept of loving yourself first and foremost. Out of cultivating this love of yourself, people naturally share the abundance with everyone and everything. Carlisi's book demystifies these esoteric practices in a user-friendly way. He lures the reader "In" by describing vividly and vulnerably his own trials and tribulations along the Yogic path. He does this by clearly creating a usable "map" for life, that he developed over 30 years of self research as a practitioner of these 3 sciences.

Editorial Reviews

Review

A fascinating story showing how Ayurveda, Yoga and Tantra blended together can change our lives and bring a deeper energy into all that we do. Prem takes the reader on a many-sided journey of self-discovery through his own personal quest for inner transformation. --David Frawley, author of Yoga & Ayurveda

In his very candid style of writing, Prem shares much of his personal life enquiry and, in the process, lifts the lid on Ashtanga Yoga, Ayurveda and Tantra. The Only Way Out Is In is a personal account with a fresh new perspective demystifying the science and philosophy of life. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wishes to be spiritually uplifted. --John Scott BA, author of Ashtanga Yoga: The Essential Step-by-Step Guide to Dynamic Yoga

Anthony 'Prem' Carlisi demonstrates very clearly and, in a down-to-earth way, how using these three systems may improve your health, lifestyle and overall sense of well-being. A wonderful book for anyone interested in Ashtanga Yoga, Ayurveda, and Tantra. --Dean Ornish, M.D. Founder and President, Preventive Medicine Research Institute author ofDr. Dean Ornish's Program for Reversing Heart Disease

5.0 out of 5 stars GENUINE LOOK AT ASHTANGA, AYURVEDA, AND TANTRA, July 9, 2008
This review is from: Only Way Out Is In: A Modern Day Yogi's Commentary on the Synergy of Ashtanga Yoga, Ayurveda, and Tantra (Paperback)
I have been practicing Ashtanga yoga for over 10 years and have many
different books about yoga, ayurveda, and tantra. This one in
particular is special, because of the way Carlisi honestly reveals
himself to the reader and weaves his personal experience throughout.
I was surprised to discover a lot of information about these
practices that no one else talks about. He makes his message known
clearly that ashtanga yoga, ayurveda, and tantra are available for
anyone and everyone, at any age and any point in their life. I
couldn't put it down and would recommend it to yogis and non-yogi's
alike.

5.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable and humorous read, even for people new to yoga!, June 17, 2008
This review is from: Only Way Out Is In: A Modern Day Yogi's Commentary on the Synergy of Ashtanga Yoga, Ayurveda, and Tantra (Paperback)
As a beginner to yoga, a friend suggested this book to me. I was reluctant to read it at first, but once I started, I couldn't put it down! Since then, it has turned me on to a lot of new ideas and I am excited to learn more about all three topics.
