Dear SHY Yogis:

I’m very excited to announce that my book, Become the Architect of your Body, Mind, and Soul, published in English in 2017 (available here) was picked up by a Greek publisher and is now available translated in the Greek language!

Every self-published author dreams of having their written works noticed and picked up by an actual publisher, but few ever see this happen.

Lena Perivolaropoulou from Athenian Science Publisher in Athens, contacted me in 2020. Both of our countries were in lockdown from the COVID-19 Pandemic and SHY had no opening date in site for live studio classes to resume. Like many people around the world, I was feeling fearful, isolated, and discouraged.

To hear that Lena and Athenian Science Publisher was interested in translating and publishing Architect was a much needed burst of light in my personal darkness.

Lena believed in the positivity the book offers and wished to see it in the hands of her fellow Greeks. She worked tirelessly to make this a reality and just one year later, the translation was completed and the book was in print!

Lena has invited me to Athens this September to celebrate the opening! The event takes place in true Athenian fashion on the grounds at Parko Eleftherias Athens Arts Center and Museum, outdoors, with a beautiful view of the city.

The local time here for the event is 12 pm on Friday September 10, 2021. I hope to have a streaming video to share with you and will post when it becomes available.

To all of you who have enjoyed the book (in English or otherwise!), I invite you to share in my joy at Become the Architect of your Body, Mind, and Soul’s next chapter in Athens. This book would not exist in any langue without you, my constant inspiration to continue teaching, whether through yoga classes in studio, online, or the through the written word and beyond.

Namaste,

Lara
