Description
Poetry and personal change can be born anywhere, even in the overbearing and purposeful heat of a steaming yoga studio. Writer and intermittent yoga practitioner Marna Owen takes us on a personal and poetic journey of what is commonly referred to as traditional hot yoga: twenty-six poses and two breathing exercises practiced in a room heated to105° Fahrenheit. Under the commands of strict instructors and in the company of classmates of all shapes, sizes, and abilities, the poems reflect with humor and introspection the demands of the hot yoga practice and the benefits of going beyond what seems both reasonable and possible.
