She has left us to live in greater light. I like her words - it is so easy for a yoga teacher to suggest they live a perfect life in a better place. The truth is we need yoga, all of us, to survive our lives and we all have darkness, pain and difficult times. Important to be open with students.

This master teacher and founder of YogaWorks has seen a real evolution in the art of teaching over the years. Read on for her thoughts on the art of leadership.

Serious issues exist in the yoga world. I'm not part of the 'yoga world', I practise and teach yoga. Yoga is for every body, and is a way of achieving self-realisation gently, in your own way and at your own pace.

Yoga is not an exercise regime - sister of ayurveda, the wisdom of life, it needs to respect the planet!

Ironically, the pants people wear while meditating about world peace are polluting the ocean with microplastics With New Agey names like Awake, Enlight, Balance and Align and a $100 price tag, you’d think those $100 Lululemon yoga pants would be made of recycled, organic h**p in a fair-trade facto...

Yoga is for everybody - its principles and practices enhance faith and help us tread the path less commonly followed, however we choose to do so.

I just finished proofreading a book on yoga, and one of its chapters in particular is going to stick with me through Lent: “Practice Dying.” In it the author, Michael Stone, discusses the significa…

Search inside! That's yoga.

Creation said:
“I want to hide something from the humans until they are ready for it.
It is the realization that they create their own reality.”
The eagle said,
“Give it to me. I will take it to the moon.”
The Creator said, “No. One day they will go there and find it.”
The salmon said,
“I will bury it on the bottom of the ocean.”
The Creator said, “No. They will go there, too.”
The buffalo said, “I will bury it on the Great Plains.”
The Creator said, “They will cut into the skin of the earth and find it even there.”
Grandmother who lives in the breast of Mother Earth,
and who has no physical eyes but sees with spiritual eyes, said
“Put it inside of them.”
And the Creator said, “It is done.”

Yoga is about loving, and living quietly and happily as yourself. (No, it's not headstand or being thin and bendy!)
