"Yoga Face Selfies are not about self-improvement, they are about self acceptance." https://www.instagram.com/p/BSOsOz2gY-l/?taken-by=yogafaceselfie - Inspired by a quote from Gurmukh Kaur Khalsa,"Yoga is not about self-improvement, it's about self acceptance."

Inspirational Quote of the Day: "If I'm wrong, educate me, don't Yoga Face me." #UseYogaFaceAppropriately Inspired by inconsiderate yoga face practitioners Everywhere. Inspirational Source:

"Your beliefs don't make you a better person, yoga face does." was inspired by a quote by Sukhraj S. Dillon, "Your beliefs don't make you a better person, your behaviour does." I love how by switching words contained in inspirational quotes and completely transform the meaning and, if you're lucky, will also give you a better understanding of how the quote works. This one, for example, is largely based on confirmation bias. When confirmation bias is in effect, we will assume that other people will have the same concept of what behaviour will make you a "better" person. Culture to culture that idea of actions or behaviours that will make you a "better" person will shift. If you replace the word "behaviour" with a specific action, you will undoubtable lose a portion of your audience that feel the action your have described does not actually make you a better person. This is interesting stuff, I think. 

In many Western Teaching Practices, fact regurgitation is the name of the game. This is not the case with the Yoga Face Selfie 2.0 techniques as practiced in modern day Canada. While working to have a face resembling anothers is a good way to start any session, the true celebration of self-realization (or self-actualization, if you prefer) is a face yogi who is able to express themselves in ways that no one can imitate.  We celebrate deviations from the normal expressions exemplified by the masses (aka Duckface) in the belief that only by deviating can one find new sources of inspiration for oneself.  Stay tuned to this blog and all our other social media platforms for more inspirational quotes from our guru!

The New York Times has now interviewed Robert Kelly and his family. After stonewalling the media for days, Robert and his wife, Kim Jung-A, have decided to come clean on what really happened in the early evening hours on March 10 during an interview with the BBC. The interview was supposed to be about Robert Kelly's take on what lies ahead for South Korea now that Park Geun-hye has become the country's first democratically elected leader to be forced from office, but instead the world was riveted by the antics of Robert and Kim's kids crashing into the interview room and derailing what would otherwise have undoubtably been a rather dry discussion. In the aftermath of the now infamous interview people were wondering things like Q: "Why didn't he just get up and quietly usher the kids out the door?" A: "Was he not wearing pants?" Q: "Why was his wife crouching down while gathering the children? A: "Was she on the toilet and she didn...

While I was meditating on the world's problems today I heard Albert Einstein roll over in his grave and say to me "If there is any religion that could respond to the needs of modern science, it would be #YogaFaceSelfie." Always remember that even when it's a rough day someone is watching out for you from beyond the grave. Thanks Bert!

Welcome back to another episode of Yoga Face Selfie, where I help you to start taking your selfies to the next level.   Today’s pose of the day is called “Warrior”. It was inspired by the film of the same name. It requires an intense stare combined with a moderately slack jaw.  Now, if your selfie, like mine, isn’t exactly where you want to be, just use some photoshop magic to give it the proper look. Today I’ll be sharing with you a little segment of how I take my sefies from owe to wow.  Some people ask me, why are you focused on introducing the world to Selfie 2.0 when there are so many social justice issues that need addressing? My answer? I am, just think, if everyone was so focused on their selfies, there would be no time to plot global domination! There would be no more wars. There would be no more terrorists. It’s not only me that thinks this either, for example, just look at Canada’s Justin Trudeau, he’s actually putting my Yoga Face Selfie 2...

Yoga Face: it’s yoga, fo’your Face - #YogaFaceSelfie This is a quick (under 15 second) morning exercise. I call it the asymmetrical face stretch. Start with one eyebrow and then bring the other up to match it. Then bring them down and repeat as many times as feels comfortable for you. You can also open your mouth wide during the stretch - but only if it feels comfortable to your practice. If you look like this - then you know you are ding this exercise correctly If you feel you don’t have the 15 seconds required for this, you should maybe question the life choices that led to such a abysmal lack of time for personal growth in your life. Also, remember, if you don’t document it, it didn’t happen. Prove you’re making the right life choices by posting with the hashtag #YOGAFACEtagram - so we know that you know, you’re making the right choices. *By doing these exercises every day you will become the most empowered, loving, and balanced version of yourself and hopefully by d...
