WHAT'S NEW

YT Nov CoverGreetings! 


We’re pleased that November is the month of travel for Yogi Times. We’ve dedicated this issue to all things travel, from sublime destinations to great style while you’re getting there. Much more than just a way to escape from the daily grind, we wanted to show how travel can be an opportunity for discovery, growth and personal exploration. Whether you’re traveling half way around the world to visit sacred, mysterious and exotic lands, indulging in a luxurious spa week or simply heading up to the mountains for a weekend of camping, this magnificent world and the plethora of remarkable people in it offer infinite opportunities for us to access the deep and limitless potential within us.
Sophie & Martin

Namaste,

ARTICLE SNEAK PEAK

Cover StorySublime Adventures for the Soul

By Angelica Singh

St. Augustine once declared, “The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page”. From world explorations to spiritual pilgrimages to vision quests, travel has become one of the most sought after experiences in our culture, enhancing the breadth of our understanding and widening the scope of our world view. The idea of travel evokes images of exotic destinations, from the pyramids of Egypt to the Imperial Palaces of St. Petersburg to the rain forests of Brazil. Travel also has the potential to awaken the knowledge of a deeper connection to the Divine as a source of boundless freedom. We come to know ourselves through our journeys, which stretch and deepen the fiber of our humanity, humbling us and allowing us to recognize the threads connecting each being in the tapestry that is our world.

YOGA TIP
yoga tip
If shorter days and fading sunlight makes you bluer than usual, try standing in Tadasana (Mountain Pose) and come into Urdhva Hastasana (Raised Hands Pose) with the feet hip distance apart and arms reaching towards the sky. Lift your gaze up, take a couple deep breaths and feel yourself changing hue.
