Mythic Yoga Journey: Three Poems by Sydney Solis Published In Moko

I have been writing a novel in verse with various poems strung together based on my time living on the island of St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands. The sights, sounds and people as well as intense beauty of nature was extremely healing for me on my Mythic Yoga Journey abroad I took beginning in 2010 when I left my hometown of Boulder, Colorado with my two young children.

My Buddhist name is Guyo - Brave Sun for a reason! Looking back I think, who would do such a thing? Well I'm glad I took a risk and followed my bliss!

Various fictionalized accounts have been getting published. These latest three in  the November 2016 issue of Moko, The Magazine of Caribbean Arts and Letters. 

The manuscript is finished, and I have a little Daruma doll I picked up in Japan to keep me focused on sending more poems out as well as the manuscript for publication!

Enjoy my latest three poems: Three Roosters, Frederiksted Pier and The End of the World. Definitely subscribe to Moko! A fabulous publication!

“I am the poet of the body. And I am the poet of the soul.” - Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass

Delve into the oral tradition by hearing Hindu and other myths and connect it with the body for fresh perspectives in creating poetry, memoir and spoken-word narrative. In this day-long course, Storyteller, Performance Poet and Yoga Teacher Sydney Solis guides you in a self-reflective mythic journey to write from the body and listen to its silent voice by using meditation, yoga and dance, dreamwork and the chakras to discover your personal mythology and tell the myth poem of the body.
It's yoga beyond asana and delves into the psycho-spiritual aspects of yoga wisdom and the expressive arts.
