OM Magazine
Issue 89, October 2018
First, the big news: remember the OM Yoga
Show takes place in London later this month
(October 19-21). Come along to Europe’s
biggest yoga event at Alexandra Palace and
stretch out your mat for a whole weekend. And
do say hello to the OM team while you’re there
too (and, oh yes, we’ll have some fab goodie
bags waiting for all new subscribers!).
Inside this month’s issue we’ve got a preview
of the big weekend ahead, including profiles of
some of the top teachers coming along to help you find your centre,
such as the wonderful Tara Stiles from the USA. Read all about it
starting on page 48.
If you can’t wait, or you can’t make it, then there are plenty of other
goodies inside this month’s issue of the magazine to keep you going.
That includes an exploration of all things hot yoga (starting on page
62), one of the most popular modern styles right now. If you haven’t
tried it yet, then it’s a great new way to get your glow on. Check out
some of the awesome studios featured inside.
There are plenty of inspiring characters sharing the love with us
this month too. Meet the delightful Vonetta Winter, co-founder of the
dreamy Vale de Moses yoga retreat in Portugal (page 36), and also
music maestro, Alex King-Harris, aka Rara Avis, co-creator of Desert
Dwellers and YogiTunes (page 58).
There’s lots of practical yoga and meditation, recipes, and nurturing
words for mind, body and soul along the way as well, including the next
instalment of our popular History of Yoga in the West series (page 92).
Whatever yoga style you’re into – even if it’s just the latest trend in
yoga fashion – then we’ve got you covered.
Wherever you are on your yoga journey, thank you for taking OM
along with you. Have a blissful month and I hope to see you in London
soon at the show.facebook.com/ommagazine(^) Instagram.com/omyogamagazine
