1st YOGA Magazine
launched in 2003 in the UK
Dear Esteemed Readers,
Greetings and blessings!
As we welcome the blossoming month of May, our latest issue is an invitation to explore yoga's expansive universe, both on and off the mat. This month, we dive deep into the transformative power of yoga, celebrating its ability to bridge souls, nurture well-being, and challenge stereotypes.
Swami Shubamritananda Puri takes us beyond the mat, sharing insights on living yoga through the principles of seva, bhakti, jnana, and karma yoga, while also guiding us to access the teachings of Amma. His wisdom complements our exploration of the Niyamas, yoga's ethical guidelines, reminding us of yoga's holistic essence beyond physical postures.
In "Taking Yoga off the Mat," we feature a soulful journey with Esther Rushton and Leonie Taylor. Esther shares her transformative voyage with yoga, finding solace and self-discovery beyond its physical benefits. Meanwhile, Leonie Taylor challenges yoga stereotypes with "Yoga Teacher in a Box," emphasizing inclusivity and adaptability for all bodies and abilities.
Our exploration of yoga's rich history and philosophy continues with "Thanks For Everything," honoring the life and teachings of Taitetsu Unno. His journey from Japan to the U.S., steeped in Buddhist studies, emphasizes compassion, gratitude, and transformation.
For those seeking practical guidance, we offer "Top 10 Asanas for Physical Stress Relief for Caregivers" and "Yoga for the Visually Impaired." Additionally, our feature on "The Lotus" dives into Padmāsana's symbolism of spiritual enlightenment, while "Mudras: Finding Magic in the Mountains" invites us to merge mudra yoga practices with nature's serenity at Jade Mountain Resort.
This issue also delves into holistic wellness, featuring Dr. Gérard Sunnen's insights into well-being and Lena Franklin's exploration of authentic power. From the art of acupuncture to self-discovery journeys and the multifaceted benefits of Kundalini, there's something for every yogi to embrace and explore.
As we navigate an era of superficial interactions, Lorena Bernal's piece on fostering authentic conversations reminds us of the profound connections we can cultivate. Similarly, Kamesha Seagle's discussion on alchemizing our energy into positive influence resonates with the transformative potential we all possess.
We hope this issue inspires you to embark on a love affair with yoga, embracing its physical, mental, and spiritual benefits for holistic well-being and self-discovery.
Wishing you peace, love, and light on your yoga journey.
