I was always a curious person, wanting to know the answers to the mysteries of life, the universe, and everything. Through the years, neither the traditional answer of 42* nor my spiritual and scientific studies ever fully gave me a sense of lasting peace or answered all of my questions to my satisfaction. In 2006 my mind and body failed me suddenly, landing me in the hospital and leading to a diagnosis of bipolar disorder. After this event I searched for answers and a way to heal my body and mind with a greater sense of urgency, eventually finding Advanced Yoga Practices (AYP). Although it's delicate business practicing meditation with certain mental illnesses such as bipolar (some should not, particularly without supervision and the approval of a doctor), very careful application of the AYP System every day over several years has brought me a long term peace and stability that I had never experienced before and could never even come near with any other form of treatment. With my life improving day by day, I truly felt that if I could do anything I wanted with my life, anything at all, I would go get certified as an AYP Yoga Instructor, and after becoming certified make software, videos, and other tools to share this great system with you. After the completion of my AYP teacher training course in 2019, I returned home and taught myself software development. So here are some of those tools. I hope that you find them useful and shiny. May the practices presented here bring you lasting peace and happiness. *Note: see Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy
