Those of us who practice daily deskasana know sitting for long periods of time often leads to slouchasana, aka schlumpasana aka numb-tush-stiff neck-asana. Oof!

Obama delivered his State of the Union address, the Northeast states got yet another snowpocalyptic wallop, and “fitness superhero” Jack Lalanne left his bodily state to continue fingertip push-ups in the sky.

‘Energize your mind, body and spirit. Go vegetarian’. No, there’s no nakedness! sheesh. Not even one of those green leafy get-ups, which, frankly, we’re only just a tad disappointed about.

However, we must share with you our favorite so far (sorry everyone else taking the time to thoughtfully share your voice), because we can really feel the heart.

Oh, hi! Perhaps you’ve seen the latest article in The New York Times, “Rebel Yoga” profiling NYC’s sanskrit-eschewing studio owner, model cum yogi/Deepak teacher, overall pleasant person, Tara Stiles, where YD got a special “Critics” corner quote.

Whoa! We’re thinking this week should be brought to you by an after school special and a bar of soap. Sudsy amuse bouche, anyone? Good grief! Pardon the expression, but we’re going to need a shit ton of yoga to wipe all this naughty fuckery from our soiled, sullied minds. Good thing we have the [...]
