Introducing Yoga-ish: Unexpected Wisdom from Mike Tyson, Bedtime Routines & What We're Binge-Watching
01:07:26|We're introducing another weekly episode into your feed -- it's a less scripted, more casual conversation we're calling Yoga-ish. Just like it sounds, it will be about yoga, but not only about yoga. Because, as we always say, yoga isn’t just about poses; it’s a lens through which we view life. This week! We share Mike Tyson's unexpected wisdom, the quirky joys of our bedtime routine, what made (sort of) Jason cry last week, and how we're currently attempting to respond to the craziness of our social media feeds post-election.
