About The Yogi Assignment
Live with authenticity. Practice patience. Let go of negativity. These are some of the core tenets of a yoga lifestyle, on and off the mat. Yoga is about much more than twisting yourself into shapes—the heart of this ancient practice is an inner journey, one of reflection, spiritual awakening, and ultimately a calm, clear mind.
The Yogi Assignment is a 30-day introduction to these life-affirming and simple—yet revolutionary—principles. Led by master Ashtanga yoga teacher Kino MacGregor, this journey will challenge and uplift your body, mind, and spirit. Each day offers a practice and meditation that will help you confront your emotional, physical, and mental limitations and inspire real change in your life. MacGregor is a fierce, loving guide who encourages you to look deeply within to find your wellspring of inner strength and courage.
Excerpt
I am about to ask you to take a yoga journey with me that may be the most challenging—but also the most unique and fulfilling—practice adventure that you have yet experienced in your yoga life. It’s going to require you to be patient when you’re not, to let go of negativity when you’re simmering with anger, to quiet the voice of judgment in your head toward yourself or someone else, and to exhibit kindness and generosity when you feel unable to do that. Between traffic jams, travel delays, dirty dishes, barking dogs, screaming babies, bills to pay, laundry piles, and the thousand other things that are on your to-do list, it will not be easy to focus and systematically embody the values and precepts of yoga as much as possible in your daily life. But that is what I’m asking you to do.
