Our Global Community
is learning from one another about ancient techniques like yoga, mediation,
visualization, affirmation, Oxygen Therapies, the power of Fresh Ginger (used
for cleansing the blood in China and India for centuries). With the
benefits of modern medicine, yet, with the awareness of the side effects of
most drugs, I believe we can make the most positive choices when we read and
study all of the opportunities as well as take a conscious and clear look at
what the down side can be. For me, Sheilah Mitchell, I was taught how to
avoid surgery by utilizing techniques that truly brought me The Fascinating
Fountain of Youth which is the title of one of my books in progress!
My teachers have taught me that the study of Yoga is the oldest form of self-development on earth. I know that whenever I practice or teach yoga I feel more energized, empowered, and flexible. My teachers have taught me that we are as young as our spines are flexible. And it has been my experience that you actually become younger feeling from within each and every cell of your body and energy field. You learn how to let go of past pain and trauma; you learn how to strengthen and become more flexible. You learn how to listen and to love your body from within. You learn how to relax, tap into your inner joy and bliss as you stretch, yawn, expand your boundaries and explore the benefits of this ancient art and science.
Learning
about the art and science of yoga is a continuing adventure. When I was just
four years old, my elementary school teacher taught me about yoga. In the
many years I have been practicing, I have had the good fortune of studying
with the most extraordinary teachers. I was trained as a teacher by Rabbi
Joel DeKoven, the author of The Rabbi Stands On His Head. I studied with the
famous Richard Hittleman, I was trained as a teacher by the founder of The
Yoga Zone, Alan Finger and I was also certified by the Founder of The
American Institute of Yoga, Eve Diskin. Amrit Desai was kind enough to
recommend me as a teacher to his yoga workshop in 1981. Many of my students
have told me that the special kind of yoga I teach has actually healed
chronic pain. Three students have told me that they were able to cancel
their back surgery because of what I had taught them! Two more students have
told me that as long as they practice yoga each day that they are free of
serious neck, hip and back pains. The rewards for me as a teacher and
student of this fascinating world of yoga are infinite!
We would like to hear
from you!
Namaste'
