The Meditation Styles of Fandom – Which do you have?

June 10, 2018 by Fandom Yoga Leave a Comment

Meditation is by no means exclusive to our reality. The heroes and villains of fandom know the value of a good meditation session for kinds of purposes… including plotting, deducing, and rejuvenating. And then there’s the Doctor… who is perhaps slightly *less* effective when it comes to NOT using his meditation time for well-digging and…

A Meditation on Trees & Literature

May 13, 2018 by Fandom Yoga Leave a Comment

A few of my drawings and photos together, showing my love of the native trees in my area! Also… Some of my favorite quotes about trees from literature by year published… Alice’s Adventures In Wondeland & Through the Looking-Glass, Lewis Carroll, 1865 “I wonder if the snow loves the trees and fields, that it kisses them so…

Spring Flower Meditation

May 6, 2018 by Fandom Yoga Leave a Comment

Just the Dandelion, when we all turn gray, may we also bring joy to children and vice versa and spread our wisdom far and wide. Just like the Tulip, may we all be so willing to let our big, brash, ostentatiously colorful selves perch so confidently on such a small and delicate stem. Just like…

The Master Mentors of Fandom (and Being Your Own)

May 3, 2018 by Fandom Yoga Leave a Comment

It’s easy to feel like Luke Skywalker, like Harry Potter, like Doctor Strange before he became a sorcerer. It’s even easy to feel like Anakin Skywalker. They are all full of intense, conflicting feelings and just the spark of potential – a spark waiting to be fanned into a flame by their sage, mysterious mentors….

Fandom Mindscape Meditation Flow

April 15, 2018 by Fandom Yoga Leave a Comment

One of my favorite moments in any sort of fandom comes when a mindscape is depicted – when someone’s internal mental processes are revealed through visuals or words. These scenes almost always feel strange and unhinged, like a dream, while also relatable. It’s bizarre but intriguing that these mindscapes feel more alien to us than…

The crucial quiet of Matilda and yoga

January 13, 2018 by Fandom Yoga 1 Comment

The absence of sound has always scared me. It has always seemed to imply the absence of other things to do – of connection, of energy, of things happening and people talking and the world moving. It can seem like the Veil in Doctor Who’s episode “Heaven Sent,” lurking behind every action we take, every…

Losing and finding your mind: Van Gogh’s piles of things good, bad, and wondrous

January 5, 2018 by Fandom Yoga 2 Comments

Barring being actually in the Matrix, what you see and touch is real, right? You know where you are? What you think is dependable? And what you feel is appropriate? Usually we’d say yes, pretty much. We can take those things for granted, and go with purpose to our work, our play, our practice on…

Om and the Force: Binding us all Together

December 31, 2017 by Fandom Yoga 1 Comment

Sorry, introverts of this galaxy and others far, far away. Even when we are alone, we aren’t alone. In the world of Star Wars, there is the Force. As Obi Wan said, “Well, the Force is what gives a Jedi his power. It’s an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us and…
