Technical Publications

A few years ago, I regularly published articles in the French magazines GNU Linux Magazine France and Linux Pratique. Some of these articles have been digitized and are still accessible on this platform.

Articles on Yoga

• I share articles related to Yoga in French on my website YogĀrkana.
• And occasionally in the French publication Le Journal du Yoga.
