iYogaLife introduces four blogs from modern women trying to live healthier and happier lives without becoming all yoga-ed out. In other words they aren�t afraid of a spiritual infusion but they are also after a great body and none of them have the luxury of moving to an ashram or hiring a Hollywood guru. They live and practice in the real world. They have bills to pay, love interests, problems and solutions just like the rest of us.  From the fitness buff who lost ten pounds when she decided to moonlight as a yoga teacher to the new mother trying to the put the om back in m-o-m, these voices carry a glimmer of wisdom and a little bit of wit. If you�re like us it helps to know that a little yoga can go a long way.

Zen Mind, Buff Body
She used to be all about cardio but was still so muscular that she felt unfeminine. After she made yoga her sole source of exercise she lost 10 pounds. Even though she had a Master�s degree in exercise physiology it took her years to figure it all out. Now a yoga teacher, she says everything she ever needed to know she learned in Savasana (corpse pose.) Has she seen it all? Read on to find out how one man from her hometown lost 30 pounds sitting with his back to the wall and deep breathing. Beginner or expert, she can help you lose weight and be more positive and less stressed using an ancient science called yoga.

Calm Mom
She�s a full-time working mom in the age of anxiety without a second to spare and a chore list larger than the Homeland Security Department�s. Just thinking about yoga allows her to find peace in the maelstrom, to be present when the little Buddha belly is naked and ready for some tickling or mom�s lower lip trembles at the thought of missing hours of smiles, giggles and something new. She doesn�t want to be a super woman--just a calm one. Watch her try to beat the odds and put the om back in M-o-m.

Get A Yoga Life
Our wondering woman�s M.D.-to-be boyfriend walked out because her stress overload was stressing him out. She had a health crisis, a glam job and a boatload of complaints. She was the clich�: �Had it all and wasn�t satisfied.� Can she break the go-getter cycle and just �be?� Why is that so much easier said than done? Thank goodness the beau is back. Now it�s time for her to recommit. But to what? Meditation, asana and taking a break from the rat race so that she can find some insight into herself. Come along and find out if two months of intensive yoga can create a brand new, enlightened you.

Mats and More�Reviewed
