About the author: Pamela Mariko trained in traditional yoga in 1985 and has since studied different yoga disciplines. Besides being a yoga teacher for some 33 years, she is an award-winning author of women's fiction, a part-time counsellor and member of AMORC (Ancient Mystical Order Rosae Crucis) whose teachings complement those of yoga from a more western perspective.
Pamela Mariko has always embodied an intention to inspire within us, the spiritualisation of matter. This being via yoga, breathing, diet and conscious choices, the reawakening of our inner candle - and to realise our incarnation as spiritual beings having an earth experience. She has whole heartedly dedicated her life to this continuous quest.
