I’ve been really enjoying It’s all Yoga Baby and am always thrilled when I come across mindful blogs in my neighborhood of Montreal, since sadly they are so few and far between.
What I really appreciate is Rosanne’s no bullshit approach.In her words:
“The intention behind it’s all yoga, baby is to question, provoke thought and shine a critical light on yoga culture ~ but also to celebrate community, service, creativity, the independent spirit and good ol’ fun. I’m fascinated by how yoga is represented in popular culture, and I’m unabashedly anti-consumerist and highly skeptical of the increasing commercialization of yoga in the West.”
It was quite interesting to read this post in which she mentions that another yoga-blogger, YogaDawg speaks of 2009 being the year of the yoga-blogger. In their words:
“This was year of the yoga blogger with their relentless flailing amidst the shout-downs of increasing corporate branding and degradation of ‘true yoga’. To the surprise and amusement of some seasoned yoga bloggers, b-list yogis showed up to comment on their blogs and defended their life style against these snarky yoga malcontents.”
Sound familiar?
ooooh, thanks so much for the lovin’! i’m also excited to discover your blog ~ love your attitude and perspective.
