Pros: Informative, well-written articles, inspirational
Cons: None

When I signed up for two weeks of yoga at the local Yogaworks for $30, a year's subscription to Yoga Journal was included with the package. At the time, I wasn't particularly excited about the magazine, but having read several issues, I'm extremely ...

I might just be in my late teens, but that doesn't stop me from running to the mail when two magazines I love the most, Yoga Journal and New Age, have come in. My mother is a licensed massage therapist, which should explain why we get these magazines in...

Pros: The source I contact for all my yoga questions!

I am a beginning yoga student, having only started classes in January. However, I've found that for me it is the one form of exercise that I want to do on a regular basis. As I am becoming more serious about my yoga practice, I decided to check out...

This magazine is the leader in bringing a broad range of information about yoga and the yoga lifestyle to people interested in yoga. It serves the entire yoga community, from beginner to seasoned veteran.

Pros: Informative, great articles, the perfect addition to any yoga practice.
Cons: Not published every month.

Pros: Great format, nice layout and fantastic articles to help you regain your sense of self
Cons: Religion can help too

Pros: Well written and informative
Cons: A little under explained some times

Yoga Journal is a very interesting magazine that covers not only yoga but also holistic health, and eastern religion and philosophy.
