Yoga Therapy Tip:
Here is a short video just so you consider stretching the fingers away from the center of the hand while maintaining a sense of hugging the bones in…we use our hands non-stop and they do hold tension ~ a nice hand massage, wrist circles, shaking hands vigorously… especially in colder weather can keep your hands strong and tension free..for more mindful movement, please consider co-ordinating with simple breathing

good morning post
the way we begin our day is important; why not start it with a home yoga practice, I can help you learn the basics in a private yoga class ~ I am located in Bergen County
Restorative Yoga Therapy
Why Restorative Yoga therapy? Tired? Restorative Yoga Therapy is a key component to a balanced yoga practice whether you are an active athlete or a weekend warrior. The body is able to stretch passively while the mind enters a calm abode.
In a restorative yoga class, the nice thing is there is no chasing involved. By bringing the support of props to practice, the practitioner receives the benefits of the posture without the overextension.
As anyone who is tired and or stressed out knows, mood is affected so easily that it is often hard not to be reactive, frustrated, anxious, or cranky. When we yogis speak of gratitude, it is often hard to get to that positive attitude when you are not in the right yogamind…
Last week I spoke about the ananda maya kosha and how practices of restorative yoga help undo layers of tension in the body and help train the mind to accept the parasympathetic response easier, so that the innermost peaceful core is accessible.
“Say thank you to your innermost Being. Even if you cannot see at the moment what to say thank you for, keep on saying thank you. It will change the vibration inside and make you light and open and full of love, forgiveness and joy” ~ Mooji
Yoga as self-care
This infographic brings “taking care of yourself” to a new level. Asana practice is more than physical, and a therapeutic practice will re-balance all systems of the body in addition to promoting strength and flexibility. Consider joining me this weekend for a restorative workshop, or perhaps you will treat yourself to a private yoga class to lead you into a healthier 2014
