Namaste : My Everest Journey - 9781912615698

Yoga and Reiki Master Teacher, Emma Després, has always been drawn to travel and learning about new cultures. So when the opportunity arose to trek to Everest Base Camp and volunteer at a Nepali village school, she jumped at it. Not only was it a great excuse to leave her corporate life and an on/off relationship behind, but it also gave her the chance to connect with the spiritual energy of the sacred Himalayas, and offer her some welcome breathing space to consider her next steps in life. However, it was only when she got off the plane in Lukla that she realised her daily yoga practice had not exactly equipped her for trekking up the world's tallest mountain. Namaste charts her physical, emotional and spiritual journey through the various stages of her climb to and from Base Camp. As her body battled freezing temperatures and very thin air, her mind had to stay motivated as she took a long hard look at herself. Facing some home truths proved harder than dealing with the terrifying suspension bridges (don't look down). Her passion for the mountains and her love of Nepal and the Nepali people shines through this inspiring and honest account of a life-changing journey.
