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

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.

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

Ode to Finals. ~ Zoe Schiffer
by elephantjournal.com on Dec 9, 2011
"I just think that our education system needs to take a good, hard look at itself in the mirror and realize that if, in my future life, I am ever asked to find the vertex form of a quadratic function, I will do what any half-sane individual would in such a situation, and punch whoever asked me for it in the face."575 views

Clean your House, Change your Chi!
by Jennifer Bonetto on Jul 7, 2011
Energy brings opportunities for money, relationships and health. When energy is met with an obstacle, it diverts from it's normal path, which in turn takes longer to complete the "lo shu flight path." For example, picture yourself driving along and all of the sudden the light turns red, which in turn forces you to come to a screaching halt. If you were to keep doing this a dozen times, it would eventually take longer for you to get to your destination.949 views
