Biophotons: The Human Body Emits, Communicates with, and is Made from Light
I found this post to be a very friendly and useful awakening to the improbability of existence. Even those of us who have had some education in statistics tend to forget this simple truth all too easily.
Not a dancer, but dance itself – a video of Maya Plisetskaya dancing beautifully the dying swan, aged 61
Like someone else who commented on youtube, I think she is not a dancer, but impersonates dance itself. Even at 61.
Nauli Kriya – a guy with amazing yoga practice skills
It is mind-boggling what the trained human body-and-mind is capable of! How good would it be to exercise that kind of control over your body!!!
The great global food gap
The great global food gap. An excellent post from a fellow blogger.
The Primary Series Express Video
I found this useful for when I don’t have much time for yoga (which is regrettably quite a lot of the time).
Flowers in Dubrovnik

A feel-good movie, which left me smiling for the rest of the evening
I watched a good movie a couple of days ago so I thought it was worth sharing. Ballet Shoes (2007) tells the extraordinary story of 3 orphaned girls, each with their own talent, who grow up in a poor but loving home in London in the ’30s and try to follow their dreams of becoming a ballerina, an actress and a pilot respectively. It is a very easy-going film suitable for small children too. It is inspiring and although there are no particularly deep or sophisticated characters, I highly recommend it.
A ten-minute video by Tony Sanchez showing 84 asanas at all four levels (Hatha yoga)
Watch an inspiring video by Tony Sanchez here. I like what he says about progress in yoga: essentially that once you are past the struggle of getting into the postures, you feel amazing freedom and energy in your practice. Well worth a watch.
