When I am meditating or

giving a retreat or teaching I

love silk batik sarongs, silk

blouses, and anything colorful

or white that is soft. My props

are crystal healing bowls, a

Radiance Tree of Life crystal

set, flowers tuning forks, a

piece of sacred wood, candles,

and a crystal bowl with salt

water. When it comes to

essential oils, frankincense,

rose, jasmine, and myrrh are

some of my favorites.

My yoga journey began 18
years ago but my practice
changed dramatically after a
ski racing accident limited my
asana practice. In this journey
photography became my
yoga and my camera my most
important prop in my practice.
I now bring the eight limbs of
yoga into all my photography
from Burning Man to India
and with all the people I am
privileged to capture in my
images.

We asked a selection of our contributors the following question this issue:

What are your favorite performance-based clothing items and/or props to

support your practice?

I am forever indebted to

Manduka's roomy yoga-mat

bags. While hustling from

home to work, to yoga and

back home on the NYC

subway system, and now

riding my bike from home

to yoga to work on Venice

mornings, their spaciousness

makes it all possible. Plus, the

compartments allow you to

cram in your computer, water

bottle, and even wet-sweaty

clothes without risk of ruining

all of it.

This summer I was all about

my Onzie & Beyond Yoga

rompers. They are comfy, and

easy to throw on and wear to

work, to class, or to perform.

Plus they're easy to pack and

layer as my company Tiny Box

Theater went on tour beyond

NYC to Boston, Edinburgh,

and Toronto. Returning home,

I love using props at night for

some restorative and yin yoga:

blocks, bolsters, and blankets.
