  Dear        
 
Like attracts like. As above, so below. Self-fulfilling prophecy.
 
These are the ideas behind the Law of Attraction, a concept of harmonious alignment that lets you draw into your life what you most desire.  
 
The Law of Attraction is more than wishful thinking or daydreaming. The Law of Attraction works when you strengthen your desire and intention with energized thoughts, emotions, visual imagery and a strong conviction that what you desire is coming to you and that you deserve it.
 
Vision boards are powerful tools for energizing and manifesting your dreams.
 
We're hosting a workshop that will introduce you to the Law of Attraction and give you an opportunity to begin to put it into practice by creating your own vision board. For details, read about Working the Law of Attraction and Exploring Subtle Energies.

Ayurveda is the "sister science" of yoga. Learn about the healing side of yoga in a workshop presented by Maureen Hughes.
   
 Breast cancer is the leading cancer among women and the earlier it can be detected, the better your chances are of beating it. Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging is a 15-minute non-invasive test that can alert your doctor to changes in breast tissue which may indicate early stage breast disease. Read how Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging works, then give us a call to schedule a time on Nov. 2 for this important procedure. 

Katie Belakhoua is passionate about belly dance and wants you to know you don't need to be a dancer, be slim, or have "rhythm." You just need to have a desire to have fun and get some exercise (It's great core work!) Read what you'll learn each month here.

"There are no accidents or coincidences in this world. Nothing is by chance. Everything you are experiencing is a direct manifestation of where you're focusing your energy, attention and consciousness"
~ Jafree Ozwald

Create the life you want with a vision board.

Sure, you can repin a Pinterest board or use software to create a digital vision board. But the act of picking over, selecting and gluing images and inspirational words onto a poster builds that connection synergy in our minds. And the collective energy of a group setting takes this vision creation to the next level.

After a short yoga practice or meditation to get you in the right frame of mind, you'll spend the morning creating a vision board. Then, enjoy a light lunch and indulge in a chair massage and/or paraffin hot wax hand treatment. After lunch, pick from several short interactive break-out sessions and learn about the subtle energies of reiki, tai chi, Access Consciousness® and more.

"Subtle energy" refers to the medium through which consciousness acts on the realm of matter and energy. You may recognize these energies as chi or prana. Consciousness has a direct impact on manifested reality. 
   
Pre-registration and a $20 (non-refundable) deposit is required.
$50 if received by Oct. 15. $60 if received between Oct 16-19.
Registration ends Oct. 19; no same day registration.

bellydancing   What's Your Type? An Ayurveda Workshop
                 Friday, Oct. 7, 6:00-7:30pm, $25

            Led by Maureen Hughes, PhD, LMT, CTT, CATP


Ayurveda (Ayur = life, Veda = science or knowledge )  is a science of life.

Thousands of years before modern medicine provided scientific evidence for mind-body connection, sages of India developed Ayurveda, which continues to be one of the most sophisticated and powerful health systems. 


The guiding principles of Ayurveda are that:
1. the mind and the body are inextricably connected
2. nothing has more power to heal and transform the body than the mind

By attending this workshop, you will get:
  • The philosophy of Ayurveda, descriptions of doshas, vocabulary, and an understanding of the traditional healing process, known as PanchaKarma ("five actions")
  • Determination of your own prakruti, or your own unique doshic constitution
  • Description of symptomology associated with vikruti, or doshic imbalances, as well as actions one can take to keep your doshas in balance associated with seasonal changes
  • A brochure you can keep with you always to help you make food choices based on your prakruti, as well as the notes from the lecture, recipes, helpful suggestions, and more!

Call 462-3900 for more information or to register. Or stop by the studio to sign the registration form on the counter.

bodymovementfusionMake Friends With the Wall

Oct. 21, 6:30-8:00pm 
Angie Becker  

This class uses the wall as a prop to assist with alignment, encourage strength, build trust and see what it feels like to really lean into everything we are!

The wall is a great way to engage lazy muscles, stabilize shaky areas and start playing with poses we often fear.

This is not a restorative class, we will flow and play with arm balances occasionally.

Expect lots of sweat, fun and a juicy savasana.
