Yoga Peeps

I spent part of my lunch break­ing lis­ten­ing to an audio inter­view with Cyndi Lee while I was fill­ing out checks to pay the monthly bills. I really enjoyed the con­ver­sa­tion. Cyndi brings a Bud­dhist vibe to yoga so she empha­sizes med­i­ta­tion and life style. She’s involved in a lot of inter­est­ing projects in New York and around the world.

Lara Ces­tone, the found­ing spirit behind Yoga Peeps, really does a fan­tas­tic job bring­ing together lengthy (30-​​60 min­utes, I think) inter­views with yoga instruc­tors around the United States and Canada. She has 19 episodes now, avail­able as pod­casts or mp3 files, with peo­ple like Ana For­est, Shiva Rea, and Kelly McGo­ni­gal, as well as lesser known instruc­tors. Lara does this out of the good­ness of her heart because there are no ads on the site and there does not seem to be a busi­ness model behind it.
