Soak up this amazing Kirtan Yoga Playlist at Yoga+ (Update: now Yoga International, again). It's not one of those "click on the title to download" kind of playlists, but ten actual songs that you can listen to the whole 13 minute song for free and really enjoy. Not old stuff either. Very current and great sound quality. I highly recommend. If that weren't enough there's a bonus playlist with another seven songs. When you listen to "Amba Parameshwari," close your eyes and imagine yourself … [Read more...] about The Yoga+ (Update: Yoga International) Kirtan Yoga Playlist

Ashtanga Yoga First Series Video by David Swenson
I happily surfed my way into David Swenson's Ashtanga Yoga First Series video on YouTube the other day. The whole thing! I enjoy reading and practicing with Swenson's Ashtanga Yoga book, -- it's one of my favorite yoga books of all time -- but have never had a chance to preview his yoga videos. I haven't watched the entire film yet, but so far I have a very favorable impression of both the video and Swenson as an instructor. That's pretty much what I expected based on … [Read more...] about Ashtanga Yoga First Series Video by David Swenson

Isn't it nice to have those moments in life when you've checked off every last box on your agenda and can just let your mind and body relax? I'm sure that happens to you all the time, right? Yeah, right. Are you still waiting for all that free time to show up before enjoying the fruits of doing absolutely nothing? Do you know how to "do nothing?"

Operation: FIND YOGA MAT (Baghdad)
Location: BAGHDAD In recent posts, I've sort of alluded to the fact that I'm not currently building sand castles on the beautiful sandy beaches of Northwest Florida with my family, but instead I'm dodging roadside bombs and rubbing shoulders with terrorists in Baghdad, Iraq. I'm sure Baghdad used to be an interesting, maybe even beautiful city at some point in ancient history, but living here now is comparable to taking up residence inside a vacuum bag. Just my opinion, but there's not a lot … [Read more...] about Operation: FIND YOGA MAT (Baghdad)
New Home for Daily Cup of Yoga
Yoga totally rocks! Since I get so much enjoyment out of studying and practicing yoga and sharing my thoughts and discoveries with each of you here at Daily Cup of Yoga, I've spent a lot of time lately thinking about how to improve the site's 1) resources, 2) user friendliness, and 3) aesthetics. After mulling it over, and doing some research I decided that in order to make the necessary improvements and changes to Daily Cup of Yoga it needed its own web host and domain. Though it's been … [Read more...] about New Home for Daily Cup of Yoga
