by elephantjournal.com on Feb 6, 2012
As we were laughing at “Americans for a Better Tomorrow, Tomorrow (ABTT),” we were actually learning how a complicated legal entity works, as well as the inherent dangers in allowing anonymous donors to funnel unlimited amounts of money into campaigns.61 views

Confessions of a Fat Chainsmoker in Yoga Class. ~ Greg Eckard
by elephantjournal.com on Jan 30, 2012
I wore sweatpants and a t-shirt from my favorite greasy spoon diner to hide my big, hairy pot belly. Retreating immediately into the corner, I unfurled my yoga mat. I attempted the two or three stretches I remembered vaguely from elementary school gym class, staring intently at the ground and hoping no one would notice me.2,828 views

Don’t Touch My F*cking Toast. ~ Cameron Gilley
by elephantjournal.com on Jan 27, 2012
Over the past 96 hours I have created out of him the most elaborate super-villain. This toast-stealing scoundrel, who would step over his own starving children to get the last piece of toast all for himself, dropping crumbs and dripping honey on them as he satisfies his own selfish desires. And I’m the hero, glowing with the radiance of justice, avowed to make him pay for his crimes.1,503 views

7 Reasons you should get Stabbed in 2012.
by Kristin Althea on Jan 18, 2012
Maybe you came in for back pain, or carpal tunnel or a broken leg that won’t heal. Acupuncture has an amazing way of getting the body back to balance so that in addition to helping with your complaints, you suddenly find yourself with the best sleep you’ve had in 20 years, or reacting more calmly to the stuff life throws at you, etc.3,809 views

Silly Yoga Pose Names
by Joseph Boquiren on Jan 9, 2012
I've encountered these pose names from both teachers and students during my several years of practice. The poses aren't really trademarked. One can also read this as a statement on the corrosive, balkanizing practice of 'branding' yoga in this country.522 views

Yoga Will Improve Your Sex Life!
by Jamie Ginsberg on Dec 21, 2011
"Yoga will improve your sex life," I said as a last ditch effort to convince my father-in-law to take a class. As I said the words, the truth of these basic words echoed in my head. Why do we shy away from this as we describe the benefits of yoga with increased clarity, connecting more with the earth and people, stronger muscles and improved flexibility. These are all nice benefits, that cover up the real story here, you will start having better sex. You want me to spell it out for you? S-E-X!!!536 views

Spirituality In The Face Of Reality.
by Jennifer Fields on Dec 17, 2011
How do you maintain your spiritual connection in your everyday life—at the office, in the grocery store, with your girlfriends, your workaholic boyfriend, your belittling mother, for heaven's sake? That's the prime issue I believe the novel addresses, and its one every spiritual person asks ourselves all the time.582 views
