Yoga blogging
How strange - I have two hobbies that are perfectly compatible but I've never thought of combining them: blogging and yoga. Ashtangi.net however has done this - it's a web site collecting together some information about Ashtanga, and not only are they offering webspace for blogs, they are also collecting together ashtanga blogs from all sources using webfeeds. What a fantastic idea - I think this is a perfect example on how blogging can enhance the web in a good way: especially when it's about a hobby many people are very much interested in how other people do it.
So far I've written only a bit about yoga although it is starting to be a big part of my life - mostly for myself as I didn't know anyone reading this blog who practices yoga. It turned out that some do - rannva was inspired and turned out Mindy is a reader too. So maybe I should indulge myself and write a bit more about the subject, maybe add D/k's yoga category to Ashtangi.net. Everyone else - hope you don't get bored.

And the thoughts in yoga may be similar to one´s jogging hobbie, somebodys budo training etc. It is all about dealing with body and mind so I think that even "non-yogis" would find similarities.
And as Sri K. Pattabhi Jois said:
"If we practice the science of yoga, which is useful to the entire human community and which yields happiness both here and hereafter - if we practice it without fail, we will then attain physical, mental, and spiritual happiness, and our minds will flood towards the Self."
