It’s Okay to be Still: Allison McGuigan

“Ever since I was asked for this interview about how yoga played a role in my life, I’ve been pondering that question. I think yoga is evolutionary for me, in the sense that the role it plays is constantly changing. At this point in my life as a new mom, it’s playing a different role…

Reiki, Energy Healing and Angels. A Life of Pain Reveals her Life Purpose: Alison Pulito

From a really young age, I had a hip problem; a problem I didn’t know I had until I fell and was badly hurt while skiing.  I was 24 years old and it was only then that I found out I had congenital dysplasia, which means your hips are “open”, so they’re easily dislocated -they…

Step Out in Faith: Julie Hruska

“I originally came to my mat nearly fifteen years ago when I was struggling with anxiety attacks. I had two little kids and quit my full time job to stay at home with them. I was convinced I was having a nervous breakdown. I couldn’t eat or sleep and was losing tons of weight. I…

You Can’t Muscle Through Breath: Ryan Brady

“I’m considerably different because of yoga. I’ve always been good under pressure, but I’ve done it by holding my breath and biting my lip to muscle through whatever life threw at me. The best lesson yoga taught me was in my second class ever. My instructor told me to try less. It took six months…

Be Comfortable with Uncertainty: Laura Rust

“I’m not going to lie, sometimes it’s challenging to remember why I started doing yoga. I’m in a completely different place now than when I started. If you ask me at any given moment, “How has yoga transformed your life?”, lately that’s been less clear than it’s been in the past, but stopping to reflect…

Modern Music, Faster Flow & Zero Ohms: Noga Sydney Yoga with Chiara Pelizzari

“Let’s get one thing straight. Yoga saved me. At a time when my life was in turmoil, I turned to Yoga to calm my mind, relax my body and remind me that I am worthy. I was good at Yoga. Thanks to a background in gymnastics, I could contort my limbs and hold complex inversions,…

Live Music, Yoga and Mindfulness: Rob Drabkin

“I’m a full-time singer-songwriter-guitarist. I write, record, and I perform my songs all over the world. My latest EP, Beautiful Day, is out now and a full-length album is on it’s way later this summer! So, that sums up my life right now. Mindfulness is a huge part of my career, especially in live shows,…
