Nora Isaacs

I'm a freelance magazine writer, with a specialty in health, wellness, and yoga. I've worked as the managing editor and senior editor at Yoga Journal magazine; and held and editorial positions at Breathe, Men's Journal and American Photo.

As a freelancer, I've written for publications like Alternative Medicine, BabyCenter, Body & Soul, CNN.com, Fit Yoga, Natural Health, Red Herring, Women.com, Smart Business, Wired, Women's Health, Salon, Sunset Custom Publishing, Upside, and Yoga Journal.

In addition to my freelance magazine writing, I am the travel editor at Diablo magazine, teache writing workshops for MediaBistro.com, and work as a developmental book editor.

I graduated from Lafayette College and then went on to Columbia Graduate School of Journalism; after that I worked at a few magazines in New York before moving out West to San Francisco.

While in San Francisco, I followed a dream to become a yoga teacher. So it seemed a natural fit when I combined my two big passions and joined the editorial staff at Yoga Journal. After that I started my freelance business, Isaacs, Ink., and have been working on my own for the past four years.

I live with my husband Eric, and our son, Lucian Elijah.
