Live, Online: 'Life at Full Throttle'- Can Yoga & Meditation Offer More Than Peace?

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 18, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- When Christian Rado met Sadhguru Vasudev four years ago in LA, it marked a turning point in this champion racecar driver's life. "My body was fatiguing and falling apart.  I was burning the candle at both ends, but I didn't have any tools to help keep myself in check," Christian said about his life before meeting Sadhguru. 

"If somebody had told me, 'Chris you're going to a yoga class' I probably wouldn't have gone...Racecars are my life, always going fast...When I thought of yoga, I thought of people twisting themselves into pretzels... but, I knew that they were teaching a meditation so I just signed-up."   

Today, Christian has realized a transformation in his life through yoga and meditation that has him leading the pack in the motorsports industry. "I'm in a completely different place now. I've never been healthier. I've never been happier.  I've had the most successful year of my career ever."

"When you make your system work at its peak, then everything matters--even the smallest disturbance to the system," explained Sadhguru in a recent interview.   "It's like--you're driving your Maruthi (Suzuki) to the office, it doesn't matter in what condition it is.  You want to be on the F1 track? Now you have to keep your machine in a different way."
