Furthermore, many newsagents have reduced trading hours or shut altogether. This removes two cornerstones of our business and makes the magazine’s production impracticable. Rest assured, we plan to return to production when some level of nor ..read more

The philosophy behind yoga, be it in the Yoga Sutras, The Upanishads, or The Bhagavad Gita, provides us with layers upon layers of ancient wisdom that is still so relevant in today’s modern age. As yoga practitioners, it’s time we embody this philosophy. Our oceans are dying and the biggest issue they are facing, aside from climate change, is plastic pollution. We are living in a time w ..read more
