Yoga
Once upon a time yoga used to be about sticking your head in a mat and “omming”. No longer. One new trend is figuratively and literally taking off in the United States.
It’s called AntiGravity yoga. As you can see, people perform yoga in a silk hammock that is designed to keep students’ posture properly aligned.
It’s Monday! What’s exercise fads have you taken up? What else is on your mind?
Ever since The Beatles took their free-love tour of Rishikesh in 1968 western culture has had a love affair with Indian spirituality; but we’ve never been more confused about the philosophy of its main tenet - to “free” ourselves of inhibitions and let it all hang out.
News reports yesterday announced that the Kama Sutra, the ancient Hindu book on “the art of love” and sexual practice is getting a modern re-write.
And even though it’s author, Indian scholar, A.N.D Haskar claims the new version will be “as close as possible” to the original text, it’s sounds more like a polite, stitched up version of a lifestyle magazine than the guidebook to free love.
