September 6, 2018 by Fandom Yoga Leave a Comment

We’ve all seen the meme of the horse “before yoga” and the unicorn “after” – and appreciated the glorious, glittery truth of it, right? Here are a few fandom before & after’s – what would you add?!

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. Sure, there’s joy and love, but in such terrifying concentrations that you can hardly conceive of them – they are awe-inspiring and fearful in their intensity….

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…

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…

The Unexpected, Serendipitous Fandom Dance (a Perichoresis?)

June 2, 2018 by Fandom Yoga Leave a Comment

There’s something magical about a dance that comes out of nowhere. It’s as if suddenly things and people are in tune and in sync – so much so that they produce an art form more than the sum of its parts. Writers know this, of course, which is why they occasionally include them in otherwise…

Being each others’ Drishtis/Sestras: Revolved Half Moon Pose

March 31, 2018 by Fandom Yoga Leave a Comment

Last week a random person was my drishti. This person still has no idea that they held me aloft in tree pose, nor do I have any idea who they were. Nevertheless, they were my drishti. A drishti, for those who may not have heard of it before, is gaze towards some focal point. It…

Which Orphan Black Clone are you in Yoga?

January 15, 2018 by Fandom Yoga Leave a Comment

We all have many different versions of ourselves – but in Sarah Manning’s case, those versions have totally separate bodies and lives. She is the main character in Orphan Black, a British sci-fi show which earned well-deserved praise over its five season run. It’s pro-science and pro-female in all the best ways. Sarah is cool…
