The Warrior’s Light explores yoga as a lived practice rooted in peaceful intentions, awareness, and conscious action. This reflection invites practitioners and teachers to carry presence, compassion, and integrity from the mat into everyday life—shining their light through how they live, serve, and connect.

Yoga Warriors is an upcoming photography and storytelling book that explores yoga as a lived, human practice. Through intimate conversations and portraits of yogis across the United States, the project highlights how yoga extends beyond the mat and into everyday life. Each story features Warrior II as a symbol of strength and presence, alongside a personal heart-happy pose that reflects joy and authenticity. Currently in progress, Yoga Warriors invites readers and practitioners alike to witness the transformative power of yoga through real stories of embodiment, resilience, and mindful living.

There is a point in Warrior II when everything feels sincere. Feet are positioned wide apart. The front knee is bent. Arms stretch out in opposite directions. The gaze is directed forward—not hostile, not gentle, just focused. There’s nothing concealed in this posture. There’s no inward folding, no seeking balance through avoidance. Warrior II invites you to remain exactly where you stand.
