Donald Keith Stanley spent 22 years in the natural foods industry, retiring with the title Global Incentive Compensation Manager. He left that work to pursue his dream of helping others achieve their potential. Stanley has been a spiritual seeker and truth student for 25 years. He has traveled literally around the world accumulating a wealth of knowledge and experience.

He has been a yoga student for many years as part of his own spiritual path. Yoga has been instrumental in his physical, emotional, mental and spiritual growth. To write this book, he hired a yoga teacher with 35+ years of teaching experience, held workshops with the plus-sized to test the yoga and had six yoga teachers review the book during production. All this effort led to the book receiving the Seal of Approval from the Kundalini Research Institute. It is his hope that the practice of yoga can begin to help many others.

Stanley currently lives near Austin, Texas.
