8 Quotes That Show Rent is Yoga’s Favorite Musical

January 25, 2019 by Fandom Yoga 1 Comment

8. “To Yoga, To Yogurt!” I mean, obviously. Ah, to be in a time when yoga was considered counter-culture! Also yogurt and huevos rancheros?? If those are bad I never need to be good. 7. “My body’s talking to me. It says, ‘Time for danger.’” Anyone who has tried Wheel Pose or Crow Pose waaaaaay…

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…

Fandoms and Real Life Resistance

July 14, 2018 by Fandom Yoga Leave a Comment

Fandoms can be silly but they can also be powerful tools for helping us understand and act on important ideas – the most important, in some cases. Just look at the number of signs at the Women’s March using lyrics from Hamilton (including my own which said “Tell Your Sister That She’s Got to Rise…

Fandom Parapraxis – The Oddity of Freudian Slips

June 27, 2018 by Fandom Yoga Leave a Comment

A parapraxis, or a Freudian slip, is a fascinating bit of human behavior. In it your words betray you – your inner core, your muchness, somehow bypasses your mental/vocal filters. Out comes what you really think or feel – which you may not even know yourself. How strange all this occurs with tissue and electricity…

If Yoga were an ice cream flavor, it would be…

June 21, 2018 by Fandom Yoga Leave a Comment

I’ve always been an Extreme Candy BLAST kind of person. Upon surveying the vast frozen food section, I’ve always looked askance at anything else. Why, I’ve wondered, would you willingly purchase any ice cream that hasn’t been packed with chocolate chunks, a molten core of caramel, and at least two kinds of broken up pastry?…

Wizards, mutants, and witches agree: All you need is love

June 11, 2018 by Fandom Yoga Leave a Comment

The answer is: Love!! Such a climax is bound to result in more than a few eyerolls. After all, we’ve seen it so many times. In Frozen, Elsa can control her powers through love! In Beauty and the Beast, Belle restores the Beast’s health and humanity through love! Even outside the cheesiness of Disney, in…

Fandom’s Mental Yogis rise from ill to illustrious

June 7, 2018 by Fandom Yoga Leave a Comment

It puzzles me when someone says someone else is “mentally ill.” After all, people don’t typically take on a permanent label of “bodily ill.” Illness of the body is just generally considered to be a normal state which you go in and out of, not warranting either accolades or shame. But mental illness of any…

June 3, 2018 by Fandom Yoga Leave a Comment

In this vast, incomprehensible universe, we are but tiny specks – but we are tiny specks who want so much. In fact our very specky nature is part of what compels our extreme wants. We want not to be hit by asteroids, we want to have enough speck food. We want the other specks to…
