I do yoga at home and all other exercise such as bodyweight workouts, step, aerobics and lifting weights as well. For me, it's perfect and currently I don't want it any other way.
With her new book "Yoga At Home: Inspiration for Creating Your Own Home Practice", former editor, writer and yoga teacher Linda Sparrowe has put together a guide to help us create our own home yoga practice, something that even a yogini like Sparrowe sometimes struggles with.
"To be completely truthful, for years home practice was a challenge for me, even as a longtime practitioner and teacher," admits Sparrowe. "How can I possibly practice if I don't have my own yoga room…if I can't commit to 90 minutes or an hour…if I can't figure out what to practice?"
For her latest book, "Yoga at Home: Inspiration for Creating Your Own Home Practice", Sparrowe sought to answer those questions by profiling the at-home routines of renowned yogis like Seane Corn, Rodney Yee, and Elena Brower.
It's part yoga guide, and part yoga voyeurism, since in a lot of cases you're looking into their living rooms.
"[Photographer Sarah Keough and I] were interested in showing how people really live and all the different ways they find moments of stillness and times for practice within their great and messy and beautiful lives," Sparrowe says.
