How to Take Care of Your Knowledge Worker Self: Your iPhone is Not Your Yoga Mat (Video Interview)

Turns out "digging in digital soil" doesn't count as real work, as far as our body is concerned. (But it is a mighty nice metaphor!) Also, side note, your iPhone is not your yoga mat.

In this ten minute interview with Patrick Reynolds, creator of the Knowledge Worker Survival Guide, we talk getting physical. Patrick's written this guide to help you take care of yourself (especially if you spend most of your day looking at rectangles).

Patrick is also the co-creator, along with myself, of this yoga studio, this podcast and this website. If you like the interview, let us know. If you dislike it, also let us know. We can take it.

I bought the guide a few days ago and it's REALLY awesome. So well written. It has exceeded my expectations. I can't recommend it enough...the handsome pictures of Patrick doing the exercises in a tie are worth the price alone!

I love the idea of this book, and realize the need for it every time I stand up from my desk.

The interview is fun. I love seeing/hearing your banter.

Thanks to you and Patrick both.
