  Tales From the Field

   » ‎ AnthroYogini
  In the last few weeks we’ve had more than our entire year’s rainfall. The country is  striking – almost like a slap in the face as you travel through green, green grass, violet blue sky… …and burnt red earth. I ...

  It’s All About the Core Or: The Freedom to Fly

   » ‎ AnthroYogini
  I was doing yoga for nearly 5 years before I had the courage to even attempt a headstand. I still remember my first wobbly headstand against the library wall at home clearly. I purposely did it at home, because I ...

  Benny the Irish Polyglot runs a blog called Fluent in Three Months. Like Svasti’s blog and a few others that I follow, I never miss reading one of Benny’s posts. Benny posts mainly about language learning, giving the bird to ...

  Once Upon a Time… or Yes, It’s True That My Body is Part of my Mental Health

   » ‎ AnthroYogini
  This post follows on from yesterday’s post. I have down days, and writing about my feelings is the main way in which I process such mental states. Yesterday’s post was one such post. Today’s post is an archaeology of the ...

  Black Dog Flabby

  How far I’ve fallen from my former self (in the physical form) came starkly back to me today. At lunch time I had a chance meeting with a fantastic young woman, Lindsey, who’s taken over my old spot at the ...

  Guacamole: Accidentially Delicious!

   » ‎ AnthroYogini
  Here’s my variation on guacamole. I didn’t have either sour cream or tomatoes which the original recipe required, so improvisation was called for. The improvisation made for extreme guacamole yumminess to the power of 10! Anthroyogini’s Accidentally Delicious Guacamole You’ll ...

  Update on Desert Book Chick

  Books, reading and blogging about both topics has become quite a passion. It’s bliss to read as much and whatever I like after the PhD. Some of you might have noticed the ‘Desert Book Chick‘ page at the top of ...

  Islands of Healing

   » ‎ AnthroYogini
  Eat, Love, Pray (ELP) never gave Bali the justice it deserved. The Bali presented in ELP is a vapid new-agey paradise. Thankfully, the Bali I know is not the Western fantasy of shamanic healers, spa baths in luxury enclaves or ...

  Yummy Yoga Music

  I used to be a sworn traditionalist, not using any music during asana practice. Having done the majority of my yoga in Iyengar classes and more recently, Satyananda, I thought that using music in yoga classes was a recent and ...

  On Completion and Nothingness

  The thesis is finished. And now, I am basking in the deep low that comes following the ecstatic high of completion. Life goes on … Before en-thesis-ment, chop wood, go to work. After en-thesis-ment, chop wood, go to work. Perhaps ...

  I’m no Boddhisattva
