It’s encouraging to see how a simple idea, executed well, can create a global festival phenomenon. There’s a music festival to meet virtually each person’s taste around the planet, allowing you to surround yourself with like-minded folks in a habitat that feels like it’s an extension of you. Jeff Krasno, co-founder of Wanderlust, wondered why there wasn’t a gathering like this for the holistically-minded, health-conscious folks of the world. So, in 2009, he combined yoga with live music, farm-to-table food, outdoor adventure, inspirational speakers, a healing vibe, and a beautiful Lake Tahoe setting, and Wanderlust was born. Since then, Krasno, co-founder Sean Hoess and Krasno's wife Schuyler have expanded to eight festivals in three countries.

This past weekend, Wanderlust's flagship in Lake Tahoe's Squaw Valley took place, and it was a weekend of glittering sunshine, world-class yoga sessions, hang time with friends, and self-discovery. See for yourself in the photos that follow.
