back pain2.jpg Relax & Relieve Pain in Your Neck, Shoulders & Back Through Polarity Yoga!—

with Maggie

Saturday, May 17.  2:00 – 4:00 p.m.

 

Spend most of your day at a computer?  Is the drive to work too long and tiring?  Is the increased yard work a literal pain in the neck?  Feel like your shoulders are continuously tight and lifted almost to your ears?  Lower back weak and painful?  Neck rigid and tired of holding up your head? 

 

If you are one of the many who hold their stress in their neck, shoulder and back areas, this class is for you!  Come learn some Polarity Yoga moves that will relax you all over but particularly from neck to lower back.  Breath, let go, and allow the energy to move as intended, without tightness or blockage.  Go to the source of your neck, shoulder and back pain by using your intention and movement to release the energetic blockages causing tightness and stiffness.  Help to improve your posture by these easy movements.      

 

Virtually anyone can do the Polarity Yoga exercises …as they mimic the movements we make instinctively when we wish to relax, ease pain in our bodies, and wake ourselves up. This class is open to all ability levels. Polarity Yoga is the perfect yoga for those who may have avoided exercise before or feel you just aren’t the flexible “yoga type.”  Every student will have a chair to use as many of the movements are adaptable to a chair.  Participants will receive handouts to help with home practice. 

 

The movements you will learn can be done virtually anywhere, like at your office and some while sitting at a red light!  Just remember to keep your foot on the brake!

(Approaches to Finding and Maintaining Your Optimum Weight, Energy and Mind/Body/Spirit Balance)

 

Sundays: June 1, 8, 15 & 22.    5:00 – 6:30 p.m.   $96

 

In this four-part series, we will focus on yoga postures and breathing exercises for weight loss, firming, and toning the physical body.  Each week we will work on a different “trouble spot” area of the body: legs, core/tummy, hips, arms and chest; and each class will feature exercises that boost metabolism and energy.  We will discuss the links between stress and other lifestyle factors and weight gain, and how yoga can help address these.

 

The yogic approach towards developing a conscious relationship with food will be explored, as well as factors involved in developing an overall balanced lifestyle that helps us find and maintain healthy weight and fitness without focusing too much on cultural ideals.  In each session, you will receive handouts on the information and exercises shared…so you can continue your home practice.  People of all sizes and shapes are encouraged to attend!  You will be encouraged to honor your body--modifications for yoga poses will be shown as needed. No yoga experience required.

Friday, June 6:    7:00 – 9:00 p.m.   $30

 

Day-to-day living is often hectic and noisy and leads to over-stimulation of your body, nervous system and mind. We can get physically, mentally and emotionally exhausted from the noise “pollution,” even if we don’t realize it.  In this relaxing and meditative, silent yoga practice, there will be little talking from your instructor. You’ll slow down and become more mindful as you move through and hold classic hatha yoga postures. This is a unique and wonderful way to experience yoga and gain a deepened sense of peace and harmony. You’ll also likely to have a great night’s sleep as a result!  Come to experience the beauty and mystery of yoga shared in silence.  Some yoga experience is recommended.

 

 

sleep2.jpg Yoga for a Better Night’s Sleep with Luann

Saturday, June 21.    2:00 – 5:00 p.m.   $42

 

Researchers have found that people who do yoga—get a better night’s sleep. That’s because yoga addresses the mental and emotional arousal at the root of many insomniacs’ problems.  Yoga will help you fall asleep more easily. Plus the quality of your sleep will improve because of yoga's beneficial effect on the nervous system and, in particular, the brain. Yoga also increases the elimination of toxins from the body, so the body doesn’t work as hard during sleep and deep sleep can occur more readily.

            In this workshop, you’ll learn yoga poses, and breathing and relaxation techniques for the sleep-deprived. We’ll discuss what keeps us from sleeping; and cover night routines, rituals, diet, supplements, essential oils and other strategies that aid sleep. Handouts will be provided.

 

 

Dream Interpretation Group (limited to 10 participants).   Sundays, 1:00 - 3:00 p.m., and Thursdays, 5:45-7:45 p.m.

 “Tap the Wisdom of Your Dreams”   with Marty

Stay tuned for the Date of our Next Workshop. Please e-mail to let us know of your interest.

 

A “yoga” is any spiritual path whose purpose is union—union of our disparate parts, union with others and, ultimately, union with the Divine. In this workshop, Dream Reader Marty Gegner shows us how to use our dreams to gain insight and integration of body, mind and spirit.

            You’ll learn how dreams work—how they bubble up from the unconscious mind to guide and help you be more creative, make better decisions, address unresolved issues, improve your relationships, become more whole, and live more fully. You’ll be given the basic tools you need to find out how your dreams can help you.

 

Come to:

§         Discover the universal meanings of some of the most common dream signs and symbols and how they apply uniquely to you.

§         Learn a system for remembering and recording your dreams.

§         Find out how to systematically translate the clues your dreams provide you.

§         Learn about Dream Mapping, so you can track the themes and repeating patterns of your dreams.

 tibetans.jpgLearn and practice "The Five Tibetans"

WORKSHOP: Introduction to "The Five Tibetans" with Luann        

 

The Five Tibetans are known as the "Rites of Rejuvenation" or the "Fountain of Youth."  In less than 20 minutes a day, the Tibetans will strengthen your muscular, glandular and nervous systems, and energize your emotional body.  Done in the morning before breakfast, this powerful, ancient practice can "energize you like a double expresso without any of the negative side effects."

            The purpose of practicing the Five Tibetans is to normalize the speed of the spinning vortexes/chakras —the seven principal energy centers—so they function at peak condition. This permits vital life energy (also called prana or “etheric energy”) to flow upward through the endocrine system, bringing health and vitality. You awaken to a “new, brilliant world of experience and awareness.”  (When the spin of the energy vortexes slows or stops, our vital energy is inhibited. This is another name for aging and ill health.)

            Learn to do The Five Tibetans to: Enhance bone mass. Eliminate double chins. Look younger. Increase muscle tone. Reduce midriff bulge and tighten abs. Oxygenate the body. Increase metabolism and weight loss. Stimulate the lymphatic or immune system. Detox. Improve posture. Increase spinal health. Improve memory and eyesight. More.

            The Tibetans can be strenuous, but modifications are shown and practiced in this Introductory class open to students brand-new to the Tibetans and to those who want a refresher course. Handouts to support your home practice are provided.  Some yoga experience recommended.
