No doubt there’s a lot of pseudoscience in the yoga world, but it can be challenging for even the most well-intentioned and skeptical among us to understand yoga research and how science and — yes, even math — apply to yoga practice. Thank Isaac Newton's ghost for Jules Mitchell, author of “Yoga Biomechanics” who stopped by the dark side to explain it to us layfolk in the most fun and user-friendly way possible.
