  • ‘Stoned’ Yoga Is A Thing Now

    If you ever needed that ultimate reason to be called a hippy, doing yoga while stoned is now an acceptable thing, apparently.

    420 Yoga, or basically “pot-heads who need a bit of stretching”, is a class which welcomes aspiring yogis who also indulge in the odd joint and weed brownie on occasion.

    VICE’s Arielle Pardes gave the class a go and put her words into an article (once she came down, of course):

     I entered the studio, which had a dozen paper lanterns hanging from the ceiling. McDonald invited me to find a comfortable position, adding that the class always starts at 4:25, for those who may be on stoner time. I looked around. Behind me, a man without a shirt was clumsily attempting a handstand. Two classmates were chatting about being stand-up comedians. There was, to my dismay, a man wearing a tie-dyed shirt.

    We lifted our bodies upright and we moved into tree pose, which someone in the class remarked was “so totally 420.” I normally have an excellent sense of balance, but I found myself remarkably unstable, and I could hardly stand for a few seconds without gradually tipping over.

    Traditionally, the sadhus of India smoked weed while meditating in order to see God and be at peace.

    Check out the full story on VICE.
