Matthew Remski is an author and freelance journalist, with bylines in The Walrus, GEN by Medium, TIME, the Boston Globe, and the Globe and Mail. He's a former yoga teacher whose research is informed by
his past experiences as a member of two cults. He's published eight books of poetry, fiction, and nonfiction, including Threads of Yoga: A Remix of Patanjali's Sutras with Commentary and Reverie (2012).

Remski has cohosted the Conspirituality podcast since 2020. With colleagues Derek Beres and Julian Walker he has appeared as an expert on COVID-era spirituality and political extremism for dozens of news outlets. In 2023, they published Conspirituality: How New Age Conspiracy Theories Became a Health Threat. Senior yoga teacher Seane Corn called the book "a fascinating, straightforward, well researched, and sobering unpacking of the complex history and present-day phenomena of distorted beliefs within New Age yoga
and wellness spaces."

The first edition of Surviving Modern Yoga-Practice and All Is Coming:
Abuse, Cult Dynamics, and Healing in Yoga and Beyond-earned international praise as a groundbreaking resource for critical thinking and community health. Remski lives in Toronto with his partner and their two sons.
