LA YOGA: What are you looking forward
to most with the show’s release?
JVN: I believe it’s a really heart-warming show.
We went out there and shared what we know
about our joy and our passions as authentically
as we could. All of us were so compassionate
and open with everyone we worked with, even
in situations where people may think or feel
differently than we do. Those are the situations
in the world today where we need to be more
compassionate. Overall, the show is tons of fun
and I think that comes through.LA YOGA: What have you learned while film-
ing Queer Eye that you’ve brought back to
your everyday life:
JVN: One of the things that was reaffirmed to
me is that in order to change the direction of
where you are going in life, you have to really
want to change. Willingness is key.LA YOGA: While you were on the road film-
ing and outside of your usual routine, how
did you incorporate your yoga practice?
JVN: Since I was living in an apartment
building with a gym, I did what I usually
do, which is to practice a series after lifting
weights. My usual daily yoga session involves
a version of the warm-up part of an Ashtanga
Primary Series: three sets of Sun Salutation
A, three sets of Sun B, some standing poses,“Sometimes we need help not only feeling better about ourselves
but sharing our best selves with the world.”
