About the Author, Ann Swanson

Ann Swanson, MS, LMT, C-IAYT, ERYT500, author of the internationally bestselling book SCIENCE OF YOGA, wasn’t a naturally “chill person,” and meditation didn’t come easy to her. Overcoming her own chronic pain and anxiety led her to India to study yoga and meditation and then to China to explore tai chi. She went on to earn a Master of Science in Yoga Therapy from Maryland University of Integrative Health. Now, Ann blends cutting-edge research with ancient wisdom, resulting in accessible, real-world techniques you won’t just learn – you’ll love to live by!
