Like many yogis, you probably have a shelf full of dusty yoga DVDs — the well-worn favorites and the ‘What was I thinking?!’s. We understand. Everybody loves a down home practice, but sadly these rejected titles will never make it to grace the bottom of the DVD clearance bin (can’t imagine why). Alas, some truly juicy opportunities for practice thwarted.
7 Rejected Yoga DVD Titles:
1. Yoga for Aunt Flo
Go with the flow. Flow with the Flo. Life can be just as pastel and sparkly as a lady bizness commercial. Where shall we practice? Your pad or mine?
2. Debbie Does Drishti
She’s terribly dedicated, that Debbie. How she finds time in her doing schedule to do yoga is beyond us.
3. Flatulence Flow
Release what you are holding deep down inside you. Just let it all go. In the words of Enya, “Sail away, sail away, sail away.”
4. Do-It-Yourself Bikram
Hmmm. Our yogically educated guess is that the barriers to entry (heating an entire home to 105 degrees) are simply too high. Also problematic: finding someone to jump on your back while shouting obscenities.
5. Metrosexual Moksha
Get bendy enough to reach those hard-to-wax, pluck, or groom areas. Bonus: Pull on your skinny jeans with ease!
6. Asana for Explosive Diarrhea
We imagine this condition, while worrying and certainly meriting attention, precluded any wearing of yoga pants.
7. Svelte, Serene, Lose 100lbs in 10 Days
Oh, wait. How did this one sneak through?

Hey, I’ll hire myself out for this job!
#7 is still in book form, if we’re being technical about it …
However, there IS a DVD. She took cover under the wings of America’s (aging) Workout/Walkout Queen when she issued THAT DVD.
Gotta hand it to her. TS is a quick learner!
I am a bit confused. Is the cundalini-yoga-dvd one of those rejected, or is there another reason why the picture is in this article?
