Ayurveda : "What's your type?"

2009-08-27T07:29:00.000-07:00

Join us while we explore the basics of Ayurveda, the mind/body/spirit system of India. Ayurveda offers an understanding of us as unique individuals - a combination of the three body types: Vata, Pitta & Kapha. Learning the physical, functional & emotional characteristics related to each type brings us to a better understanding of our intimate characteristics as well as knowing how to recognize and heal our imbalances. With this insight comes the knowledge of what our unique needs are to cultivate optimal health and well being.

-Reduce stress

We take millions of steps throughout our lives. One of the most important movements you have is that which takes place through your hips -movements involved in walking, helping us stand upright or other more complex movements. If there is chronic tension in areas of the lower back and hip area, walking or other movements through the hips will be compromised.

From this 4 hour workshop, you will learn:

1. How the brain and the muscles are integrated and experience the integration of the mind and movement.
2. How to re-program your mind to lengthen chronically contracted muscles.
3. Gentle exercises that you can do on your own to help create more ease in movement through the hips.

Appropriate for:

· Seniors with arthritis or problems walking (knee and foot problems are usually linked to hip misuse as well).
· Athletes/dancers/fitness followers that depend on the movements of the hips
· Yoga or other mind-body movement practitioners/instructors
· Those interested in medication-free ways to prevent and alleviate pain, chronic tension, and stiffness

Somatic Education offers a way to freedom from stiffness, weakness, or pain that is the result of chronic tension. It is based on basic neuroscience about how the brain and muscles work together and offers gentle and easy exercises that are appropriate for all fitness levels.

Reiki 1
Course Description

You are invited to embrace a remarkable gift of healing, the ability to heal with your hands. Reiki (pronounced Ray-Key) is an energy healing therapy. 'Rei' is the Japanese word, which means "universal" and is referring to a higher dimension of light and soul. 'Ki' is the Japanese word, which means the vital life force energy, which interpenetrates and connects everything in this Universe.

The Usui system of Reiki is one of the easiest natural healing systems known today. It is an effective way to transfer Universal Life Energy. Once you have been "at-tuned" to Reiki, you have opened up a channel and Reiki flows through your hands. You can call on this energy at any time. It may often flow on it own accord. You will always have this energy for healing yourself and others.

Benefits of Infant Massage...
Our mission is to foster the bond between baby and parents through nurturing touch, education, and support so that babies and parents develop healthy connections. These healthy relationships will provide the foundation for the parent child unit to be valued and respected within the community. Parent Child Connection - massage helps to establish that special bond between parent and baby by focusing on important elements such as eye to eye and skin to skin contact. • Promotes relaxation, better sleep, weight gain and increased body awareness • Parental Education - parents become more sensitive to their baby's cues. • Specific infant massage techniques help to relieve gas and colic. • Some evidence shows that massage of premature infants may increase weight-gain and help with neurological development.
The Yoga Loft is sponsoring three infant massage courses.
Gift Certificates... Makes a great holiday gift and can be applied to any of the services. Perfect gift for expecting Mom’s or families with infants.
