The Rock Balancer’s Guide

Rock balancing is the practice of stacking stones one on top of another, creating structures that range from simple towers to amazingly elaborate edifices that seem to defy gravity. People balance rocks as a way of connecting to nature, to challenge their limits, as a therapeutic mindfulness practice and simply to have fun! This is the first guide to this meditative art, combining technical instructions and mindfulness advice with spectacular photographs of the incredible balances built by Travis Ruskus.

As the book takes you through the techniques of rock balancing, it explains how to breathe properly as each moment comes, face your fears and go beyond your previous limits. It also discusses how to let go and destroy your balances, leaving nature in a pristine state.

Follow step-by-step techniques to master key rock balancing skills at both beginner and advanced level.
