is a really good one! There's always that one high strung student...

did a yoga class while on vacation to realign my back. The coach was obnoxious and spouting how his type of yoga is the best, but I focused on me and ignored most of the brainwashing until he said,

"and this cleanses the digestion. It quickly eliminates all fecal matter from the body and promotes parastalsis. It forces out trapped and rancid fats and animal proteins from the intestines. Meat rots in the gut. It causes cancer. This yoga will eliminate it and you will be healed and cured of all illness....."

First of all, I rudely couldn't help myself and laughed out loud. Bad me.

Second of all, this myth is just that. A myth. Please do not promote or allow others to promote such utter lies. It makes all yogis / yoginis out like we are all nutcases.

Third, Fat and meat are immeditely transformed into Chyme in the Stomach, and by the time that reaches the small intestines, it is a liquid that is quickly absorbed. Only veggies and fruits and indigestible plant cellulose are rotting in the intestines! Seriously, l look it up! So, next time you hear that load of BS that meat rots in your gut, take a good look at the pot belly of the dude spouting off how meat rots in your gut and causes cancer. Then check out the flat 8 pack abs that high fat, meat eating dieter has!

Yoga instructors should have to take organic chemistry, biology, physiology and nutrition before they become teachers....but that won't happen. Most instructors get certified in a couple of weeks. *sigh* Yogis should not talk about things they have no education in.


what abs are supposed to look like!

I can only stand so much BS yogi talk but that one vegan/vegitartian food myth takes first prize.

"That is sooooo shanti."
