Yoga Prajna has gone through a couple of transitions since it began, originally starting as a printed leaflet which we posted to our members, progressing to a PDF which we emailed out, and now we’ve moved it to our website, as a blog.
Why the change?
Previous editions of Yoga Prajna have been hand edited by one of our committee members, but this takes a significant amount of time and effort on their part. Particular thanks go to Cheree Low who has been editing Yoga Prajna for nearly 9 years now, on top of her other responsibilities! As we've been updating our website, we've decided to move our newsletter into the modern age, giving Cheree a bit of a break in the process.
This change also brings two benefits to our members - the blog is now fully accessible at any time from the web (no more hunting through your email inbox!), and it is also publicly accessible; so if you want to forward interesting articles to your friends or share them on social media, you can now do so easily. In fact, we hope you do share! There’s a “Share” button at the bottom of each blog post to help you with that, as well as a way to print articles if you want to read or share them physically.
Printing the articles
For anyone who prefers to read our articles in print, we haven’t forgotten about you - there’s definitely a transition, but we've aimed to make the transition as easy as possible. At the bottom of each article, we've added a “Print” button that enables you to create a more easily printable version of the article without all the clutter from the website. The button looks like this:
If you click the button from the main blog page it will print all visible articles - to print a single article, click the article title first and print from there.
Changes to how we publish
In addition to the move to the web, we’ll also be looking at changing how we deliver articles - rather than having editions twice a year, we’ll be publishing articles throughout the year - rather than all at once. We’ve put a selection of articles out already, but check back for more in the coming months! We’ll alert you to new posts via social media and alongside our usual emails whenever we send those out. If you use RSS feeds, you can also subscribe to the blog via RSS; there’s a link in the very top left of the blog, or you can click this one:
We’re also now publishing on substack, and you can subscribe to receive notifications about our posts by either signing up on directly on substack, or via email by entering your email address here:
We’d love to hear your feedback on this change, and if you have any issues accessing the content we’d be happy to help you out. You can either comment at the bottom of this page using the comment functionality (enabled for all of our articles!), or send an email to events@dhiy.org.
We hope you enjoy the latest articles and look forward to seeing what you think of them!
