About this episode

Eileen Myles discusses their journey with yoga, running, and writing with host Sebastian Langdell.

Legendary author and poet Eileen Myles shares with Sebastian how they fell in love with yoga during the pandemic through Yoga with Adriene, and how it changed their relationship with their own breath. They share their long history of running and the counterintuitive accessory they used to bring to the track, and how they’re attempting a return to running now, using an entirely new method. They also detail their writing process, and how the type of notebook they use influences the shape of a poem. Plus, Eileen reflects on writing poetry for Versace. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
