Ever wonder why some people keep going back to the yoga mat day after day, year after year?

In After Namaste: Off-the-Mat Musings of a Modern Yogini, K. Kris Loomis offers a collection of down-to-earth personal essays that demonstrate the many ways yoga has transformed her life off the mat and why she keeps showing up every day for more. Not only has yoga improved her health and mental well-being, the study of this ancient practice has taught her to take personal responsibility for her actions and to focus on the bright side, no matter what life hurls her direction.

Whether you’re at the beginning of your yoga journey or if you’re already a ways down the path, you will find this audiobook full of inspiring, encouraging, and often humorous lessons learned from someone who has walked the yoga walk, both as a teacher and dedicated practitioner, for two decades and counting.

K. Kris Loomis is the author of How to Sneak More Yoga into Your Life: A Doable Yoga Plan for Busy People, How to Sneak More Meditation into Your Life: A Doable Meditation Plan for Busy People, as well as the humorous travelogue Thirty Days in Quito: Two Gringos and a Three-Legged Cat Move to Ecuador, and a collection of short stories, The Monster in the Closet and Other Stories.

When Kris isn’t at her standing desk writing, you can find her playing chess, folding an origami crane, or practicing a Beethoven sonata on the piano. Kris lives in South Carolina with her husband and two cats.
