    Extended Side Angle: 18 Versions and Beyond

    A coworker who is a cocktail expert told me that apparently there’s a huge debate over how to prepare Bloody Mary correctly within the mixology community. There’s even a book just about that! It sounded kind of ridiculous yet painfully familiar because of how much it reminded me the yoga crowd and our ongoing debates about correct alignments and blah-blah-blah. And usually, the easier the Asana is, the more debates it provokes. For example, this one Parsvakonasana, or Extende

    A Yogic Principle We Wish Didn't Exist on Thanksgiving

    Happy #Thanksgiving everyone! 🦃 While most yogis write about gratitude, I think this is a perfect timing to remind ourselves about another aspect of a #yogiclife – or for that matter a #healthylife in general – #Brahmacharya, or moderation. Coming from a different culture, I quickly adopted Thanksgiving as one of my favorite holidays. What’s there not to like: stuffing myself until I reach a blissful state of food coma 🤤 on Thursday and spending the money I don’t have on th

    Inhale or Die!

    Question: have you ever had an irrational panic attack like you're about to die, while in fact you're safe? If so, what was the context? Roller coaster? Snorkeling? Kapotasana, anyone? These are the things that made me panic. After a week of Tim Feldmann's workshop, I've also added Pranayama to this list. Yeah, the very thing that is supposed to calm you down - breathing, if not practiced and developed. Well, holding the breath to be exact. Tim taught us some techniques that

    Your Yoga Practice: A Hobby or a Lifestyle?

    How dedicated are you to yoga, or it is more of a hobby? I started yoga as an alternative to stretching (I obviously had no idea what I was getting into). It soon became my favorite hobby. It took several years for it to grow into being this essential part of my life, which where I'm now and my relationship with yoga is still constantly evolving. But I want to make this important distinction between yoga being a hobby (and there's nothing wrong with it if this is what you wan

    What is the correct alignment in Warrior I?

    Warrior I, or Virabhadrasana A, is one of the most common yoga poses. In Ashtanga, it is held for five breaths on each side as a part of the
    Yoga for Weight Loss

    Yoga for Weight Loss

    I'm frequently asked: will yoga help me lose weight and/or build muscles? The answer is it depends: how regular is your practice? what kind of yoga (the restorative kind probably won't work for those goals, sorry 😐)? what are your eating habits? But generally yes, yoga, of course, can do all of that. At least it works for me as I don't do any other physical activity, just yoga, 6 times a week, 2 hours a day. But practiced regularly and with dedication, any sports / physical

    Are you ready to plunge into yoga?

    If you are here on this webpage, reading this blog post, then you probably are! You want to try yoga but don't really know how to start? Here's a couple of quick tips before you approach your first yoga class. There's so many different yoga styles. My advice - start with the most neutral ones like Hatha or Beginner Vinyasa so you can learn some poses and get a basic understanding of what a yoga class is (as it is quite different from your fitness classes). Generally, I don't
