Experiential Guide to Yoga Lifestyle


"If we all lived the Yoga Lifestyle,
the world would be a better place"

~ Yogi Mir

Healthy Lifestyle Coach


Hello! My name is Yogi Mir.

I was born out of a rainbow in the far-away land of Siberia. I have a Rainbow Body, which is made up of pure energy and brilliant light and allows me to live forever and be anywhere in the world at any moment in time.

I always wear a T-shirt which says "Miru Mir" in Russian, so you can't mistake who I am. Miru Mir means "Peace to the world", or simply "Peace Out".

My reason for being here is to share the wisdom of yoga with the world, and to ensure a smooth transition to a more spiritual culture on the planet.



Yoga Lifestyle Rainbow

I have employed the help of a Russian translator who is fairly familiar with my yoga terminology. I hope he can manage to be clear, and you can forgive him if he screws up once in a while. ... Did he translate that last sentence?

Anyway, his name is Surya, aka Slava Kolpakov, and sometimes he pretends to have a Rainbow Body.

Healthy Habit Tracker

There are hundreds of pages with practical actions, suggestions, and recommendations that you can use to build and maintain a balanced way of living.

With hundreds of choices, it's overwhelming at first glance. To be successful, we need to focus on just a couple of yoga lifestyle actions at one time.

Feeling sick? Have a cold? Kick off your healthy yoga lifestyle with these 10 Healthy Habits.

To make it easier, I've designed a simple tool called Healthy Habit Tracker (HHT), which allows you to pick three habits at a time and, gradually, build them into your day.

Yoga Lifestyle Tracker

Once the first three healthy habits become part of your natural routine, pick the next three actions. And so on.
