What My Yoga Routine Is Based On: A Yoga Doodle Cartoon In George’s Yoga Teacher Diary
Greetings, my lovely Yogis, Yoginis, and Yoga teachers. I’m George Watts, a BWY yoga teacher and creator of the online Yoga Genie Lesson Planner.
Shhhh, don’t tell anyone this…
I’m a prolific Doodler.
Until recently, I’ve kept most of my Yoga Teacher Doodles locked away in my Doodle Diary. Doodling has been my secret hobby for years. But I had a hunch that maybe my fellow Yoga teachers, especially new ones, might like to peer into a Yoga Teacher’s Doodle Diary. I can think of no better way to pry into the mind of a Yoga Teacher than to flip through their diary, especially if that diary is full of doodles.
Here is a doodle from my “yoga diary”…
What My Yoga Routine Is Actually Based On: George’s Doodle
“My noble intention when embarking on a yoga session entails 90-minutes of BLOOD, TOIL, TEARS, and SWEAT on a yoga mat in my garden surrounded by trees, flowers and all things “nature”. The reality is 90-seconds of SOFA YOGA while watching funny cat videos on Youtube.” – George Watts
After that doodle, I doodled this one…
In the next section, I cover my “sofa yoga philosophy” in a video…while sitting on my sofa.

Next up, is my conclusion.
George’s Conclusion
In conclusion, my fellow yogis, the trick in life is to find ways to not take life too seriously, and that’s doubly true when it comes to doodling in your “Yoga Teacher Diary”.
I highly recommend that you keep a notebook that is for all things “Yoga Teaching”. I recommend abandoning the “text writing” part of the brain and allowing the “doodling” part to escape and cause mayhem on paper.
And oh yes, I almost forgot…
My free Yoga Pose Directory has over 3000 yoga poses. So, if you want to practice your stick figure drawing, it’s a great place to go because each of the poses has a stick figure image.
And if you like Yoga Stick Figures, I have a hunch you’ll like my Yoga Stick Figure Kit. It is the largest collection of premium quality, royalty-free yoga stick figures on the web. Includes 1000+ of my famous “blue” yoga stick figures (that I use within my online Yoga Lesson Planner), and 1000+ bonus yoga stick figures (in various colours and styles).
