This Week In Yoga: Celebrate Yoga Month, NYC Flash Mob Update, Alec Baldwin as Yogi Mayor

Goodness. Oh dear. Pardon us, uh…we’re just trying to clear something up here. Oh, is that right? Hm, is that a fact? Well, then. We suppose it’s true, September is here! And the summer, sadly, unofficially over. Aw, don’t get all misty-eyed and hissy now. Who doesn’t love crisp sweaters, crisper air, and hot apple crisps? Tis the season. It’s also the season for Yoga Month, September 2011. Woohoo. Don your most charming back to school garb, we’re hitting the yoga books, and uh, mats. Check out our post on Yoga Month with details on events in NYC and cool free stuff! Free Events, Classes, Fun Stuff for September – National Yoga Month 2011

With September in swing, we’re almost ready to close the chapter on YD’s Summer of Love and Yoga Fests. Almost. Stay tuned for one last hurrah and candid transmissions from Bhakti Fest this coming weekend September 8th-11th at Joshua Tree National Park where YD will throw it down one more time, yoga fest style. Should be fanflutintastic.
