Mindful Life Magazine A Note from the Editor

Since becoming editor of the Mindful Life magazine last month and now, after having worked on two issues of this publication, there is one word that immediately comes to mind when I think about this experience so far: “Community.”

From all of beautiful messages that so many of you sent me to congratulate me on this new role to your excitement about the articles that we published in our first issue, your support has been nothing short of amazing, and I am so grateful to be a part of such a kind and supportive community where we all work hard to uplift and celebrate one another!

What has really stood out to me, above all else, is the way that the Mindful Life Practice Community (MLPC) has really stepped up to the plate this month in terms of helping to contribute to the content of the magazine when we have asked for it!

These community contributions are very clear throughout this second issue of the magazine.

One of our articles, for example, is “31 Tips for Sober October,” and it is exclusively comprised of recommendations that MLPC members provided to help to support individuals who may be new to sobriety and trying out an alcohol-free lifestyle during the month of October.

We also created an article on the top places to visit in Bali…for any future Mindful Life Practice (MLP) members who decide to travel and participate in one of Alex’s Yoga Teacher Training programs or retreats in Indonesia. This piece, like “31 Tips for Sober October,” was created by asking MLPC members who had traveled to Bali previously to provide us with a list of the places that they most enjoyed visiting

A third (and in my opinion, the most impressive) example of this community connection has been witnessing all of the support for the recent publication of Alex McRobert’s memoir, Sober Yoga Girl
