As the counterculture to the pop spirituality trend, our mission is to provide a forum for those who are bored with vacuous yoga culture and trite “spiritual” talk.

Here, we can voice our opinions and express ourselves freely as we create a community of people who perhaps still like to do yoga (or not), but have a sense of humor about it and ourselves.

Recovering Yogi is…

• A web site devoted to bursting the bubble of pretentious, over-serious, judgmental, and vacuous interpretations of yoga, spirituality, and wellness
• A tongue-in-cheek reference to the addictive, culty aspects of the yoga world
• A haven for yogis, ex-yogis, and never-yogis to tell stories
• A forum for creativity and self-expression
• A gathering of smart, fearless renegades (not whiny victims)
• The launch of a potent dialog

For those of us that are just kind of over it, welcome to Recovering Yogi. We’re not a place for ignorant bullies, but rather, for people who simply say what we mean. We also like to cuss a lot. Join us  for some straight talk about how we really feel.
