WHAT'S
NEW
We at Yogi Times would like to send you our wishes for a happy,
healthy and prosperous new year. We have big plans this year
to bring you even more intriguing and informative articles, ideas
and tips for leading a healthy lifestyle at work, at play and
everywhere in between. From where to shop to what to eat and
why, Yogi Times is committed to bringing you the best information
available to help you make the most of your life.
We had a ball
putting together our February family and parenting issue. We
wanted to inspire parents to think seriously about how they
can make the most of their relationships with their children
and their families. You'll read about how and where to practice
yoga with your children. Our cover story by renowned host of
talk radio's,
The Aware Show, Lisa Garr, will give you a new perspective on
what it means to be conscious mindful parent in today's career
and material oriented culture. You'll find tips for prenatal
and postnatal health for both mothers and babies as well as all
of the usual delicious recipes, eco-friendly products and conscious
home design ideas you've come to expect from Yogi Times. We know
you'll enjoy this issue and we'd like to encourage you send us
your thoughts and feedback. You can send letters to the editor
to info@yogitimes.com.
Namaste,
Martin

Kathy
Arnos Shares Her Perspectives
Photography
by Jasper
Johal
Raising kids is a very tough job, and
trying to perform that job in a holistic
manner can make it all the more challenging.
Nobody knows this better than Kathy
Arnos, who started investigating alternative
health options when an onslaught of
illnesses beset her infant daughter,
and allopathic (i.e. mainstream) medicine
seemed only to exacerbate the problems.
One
peer-to-peer newsletter series, two books and
a healthy 21-year old daughter later, Ms. Arnos
continues her studies, while encouraging others
to do the same. These days, that encouragement
is taking shape in the Whole Children, Whole
Planet Expo 2006, slated for April 22-23 at
the Los Angeles Convention Center. In the midst
of a very busy schedule, Ms. Arnos was kind
enough to grant Yogi Times an interview especially
for our children's issue about parenting
in today's society.

The
Art of Conscious Parenting
Nurturing
a Relationship of Openness With Your Child
By
Lisa Garr
Photography by Ron
Hamad
When my husband and I brought our new
baby home, we stood inside the front
door with our daughter and said to each
other, "Now what?" We couldn't just put
the baby in her newly decorated room
and go about our business; we couldn't
put the baby down at the front door
like we do with our keys. At that moment,
our entire lives changed.
Our
pre-natal classes did a great job of preparing
us for birth, but that only lasted for a
few days. What about the rest of our lives
as parents? I realize that there is no class
anywhere that will teach you everything you
ever needed to know about being a parent,
especially not in half a dozen sessions based
on pushing and breathing. For most people,
things like needs based communication and
conscious parenting are a matter of trial
by fire if they are addressed at all. I know
that my husband and I were not alone in our
experience as the door closed behind us and
we stared at our baby like "deer-in headlights," wondering what to do next.
