Our friends over at Fitsugar alerted me to an important tidbit: September is yoga month across the nation. Thinking back, I realized that September was the month I myself became a yogi five years ago -- maybe it's the month you can become one too?

Here are a number of ways you can honour yoga month in your own way:

• Check out Fitsugar's list of the Top 10 Yoga DVDs and pick one up for you or a friend
• Find a yoga class near you and sign up.
• Already a regular yoga participant? Take a non-yoga friend with you.
• Make time each day for a few moments of meditation or prayer
• Build up good Karma by doing good deeds -- no matter how small or big -- for those around you
