Spiritual Stretching

No wonder Americans are Downward Dogging by the millions: yoga can work wonders on mind,

body, and soul. In the U.S., 16.5 million people practice it, and it’s thus become a coast-to-

coast,Zeitgeist-defining phenomenon as well as a multi-billion-dollar industry. In these outtakes from

the yoga portfolio featured in our June issue, Michael O’Neill photographs the movement’s leading

figures, from Christy Turlington and Sting to Rodney Yee and B.K.S. Iyengar.
