Breathe-Centered Yoga
Yoga is a holistic, healing discipline that helps support personal transformation, healing, and health for each individual. It addresses all dimensions of the human system: body, breath, mind, personality, and emotions.
The underlying focus of Yoga is to remove obstacles and distractions by eliminating ‘old patterns’ in the body/mind and creating new links that change our perspective and create a positive experience throughout the whole system.
Yoga and Ayurveda are interrelated healing disciplines from the Vedic system that originated in India 5,000 years ago. I also bring in the Alexander Technique's underlying principles when working with students, allowing less undue tension throughout the body. They offer a complete holistic approach to healing the body, mind, and spirit when used together.
In today’s fast pace society, more and more people are finding that Yoga offers a valuable learning process that can help each of us deal with stress, anxiety, overwhelm, and back pain, not to mention other ‘complaints’ that we experience.
Yoga is more than just what we do on the mat in your asana practice; it is what we take and apply off the mat and into our daily lives that are most important. It is a self-empowering process, so, as a teacher, I work with each individual to create a healing practice customized to their needs and lifestyle.
Yoga offers a different path—a re-awaking—that will allow you to reconnect with your body and integrate a new mind-body awareness that is more vital and alive.
It is important to remember that true healing comes from within each of us, not from an outside source.
