It’s Time to Recycle Your Old Yoga Journals

Every few years I find my stack of yoga magazines piling up. Eventually I convince myself to pull out the scissors and cut out my favorite yoga articles, which I then place in three-ring binders for reference. I recycle the rest of the magazine. It's a bit painful to chop up the magazines, but it certainly proves a useful exercise in non-attachment... Happily, I recently discovered that every single page of Yoga Journal, all the way from issue number 1, which was 10 pages and cost 75 cents … [Read more...] about It’s Time to Recycle Your Old Yoga Journals

Yoga Journal LiveMag ~ Great for Home Practice Yogis

As I perused through Yoga Journal during the wee hours this morning, I noticed that the magazine had plans to introduce a new online video channel called "LiveMag," described as "an online extension of the pages of the magazine." It sounded interesting. I didn't have time to look into it this morning, but when I checked my e-mail this evening I had a message from Yoga Journal that the first issue of LiveMag was available. In the first edition (which corresponds to the March 2010 issue of … [Read more...] about Yoga Journal LiveMag ~ Great for Home Practice Yogis

But behind closed … [Read more...] about Yoga Journal: My Secret Guilty Pleasure
