Inspiring Writers in Fandom

July 16, 2018 by Fandom Yoga Leave a Comment

Heroes don’t just save the day by punching bad guys. In both real life and fantasy, heroes save the day ultimately through art, through putting together ideas in a way that connects us all, that builds bridges of all kinds. My favorite medium is writing – so here’s an ode to my favorite writers in…

The Bad Ass Moms of Fandom

July 13, 2018 by Fandom Yoga Leave a Comment

Why is it the word “motherhood” conjures up milquetoast, flowery, frilly images? It’s bonnets and aprons and saccharine adages. In reality, I find motherhood to be exactly the opposite.

Being a Belief Polyglot (But Not Letting the Bastardes Te Carborundum): High Lunge Twist

June 15, 2018 by Fandom Yoga Leave a Comment

Choose two: Compassion. Knowledge. Truth. Freedom. Loyalty. Family. Friendship. Science. Faith. Bravery. Order. No, this isn’t a test to see which Hogwarts House you belong in, although it probably could be that too. (Ravenclaw FTW!) Rather, it just goes to show that out of all these values, which are all arguably good things, we all…

What’s in a Name? Defining people in the Handmaid’s Tale and Yoga

June 3, 2018 by Fandom Yoga Leave a Comment

Defining new words is eminently satisfying: a new shared set of ideas and connotations is lodged in our brains. Defining scientific equations is likewise illuminating, providing a solid new stepping stone to understanding how the world works. Defining living creatures, however, that’s a bit more          complex. Looking at my cat as…
