The biggest game-changer for me was the GAPS book, obviously, but a number of the ones here are on my to-read list as I continue my quest for total health. I'd love to hear what your game-changer was in the comments below!

22 Collections of Short Stories to Bring on Yoga Yoga Retreat

February 4, 2015

I am pretty excited about the upcoming yoga retreat travel I get to do in the next few months. In preparation, I wanted to put together a list of recommendations. I went with short stories, because I think they're perfect for when you're at a retreat and have a few minutes before bed, or in between activities or a couple hours at the beach. I just like the satisfaction of finishing the whole story in one sitting, you know? Here, we've got a few of my favorites and some that are on my reading list. If you're into short stories, I'd love to hear what you'd recommend!

18 Yoga Books for Total Beginners

January 4, 2015

If you're new to yoga, come on over to the Yoga Forum, where we have a dedicated space just for newbie yoga students to ask questions, share stories and get advice.

One of the most common questions I get is about how exactly to start a yoga practice. Most of the time I tell people to just try a class at their local studio or gym, but I know that can be really intimidating for some, especially as a total beginner. So I've put together a comprehensive list of eighteen yoga books for absolute beginners. Here, you're not going to find the Bhagavad Gita or The Yoga Sutras - as I figured those are best for people who are looking to go a little deeper in the yoga study. Instead, the books here are about scratching the surface. The basics of mudras, meditation, pranayama and asana, as well as a little history of the yoga practice and philosophy. I hope the list is useful!

Yoga Teacher Talk: 22 Books for Yoga Teachers

November 18, 2014

Yoga Teacher Talk is a new series that discusses everything related to teaching yoga. I’m hoping it will be a great resource and conversation start for current and prospective teachers. Make sure to pop on over to the Yoga Forum, where we’ve got a whole section dedicated to yoga teachers.

I’m not going to lie, a little part of me died inside when I had to make the switch over to the kindle. Wait, wait, don’t get me wrong.

I love my kindle.

It’s just that, simply put, it’s not a book. It doesn’t have the new book smell. It’s not the kind of thing you can bring to the beach and leave in the sand only to find, months later, a couple grains of sand in its folds.
