$10 off Private Sessions at Yoga North Park
If you've been contemplating a one-on-one session with me to work on a specific
issue relating to your practice, now is the time! All private sessions purchased
until October 31, 2008 will be $65 instead of the usual $75 - in studio only. So you could buy a bunch and use them later
if you want! One-on-one sessions are useful for working on challenging poses, designing a personal practice, fitting yoga
into your busy schedule, or just having an opportunity to work on what you want, rather than what is happening in
class. Call me at 773-531-8513 to schedule your one-on-one sessions.
Restorative Yoga So, even if I am the only
one there, there will be a Restorative Yoga class on Sunday, October 5 at 7:00pm.
Oct 5 will also be the last residency day of my last class in my MA program, so
celebrate with me by becoming calm and peaceful! We might even break out the herbal tea!!
The class is $14 unless you are taking it as a make-up for a missed class. Please register for the class, anyway, to be sure we have enough props for everyone. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing your lives, your time, your joys & sorrows, and your Yoga with me!
| Trading the Darkness for the Light  We have celebrated the Autumn Equinox and Persephone has begun her descent into
Hades. As the days get shorter and the nights longer, it might feel to some of us as if the darkness descending in nature
is merely symbolic of a different kind of darkness. Specifically I mean the energy of anger, aggression, mistrust and fear
that seems to be pervading the upcoming election.
Personally I’ve tried to limit my intake
of election coverage because I could feel myself descending into the darkness perpetuated by bitter, biased and downright
mean media coverage & electioneering by the campaigns. I could feel my heart closing and my attitude toward “the
other side” getting more and more negative. I wrote in a previous
newsletter about judgment and how it closes the heart. Why do we negatively judge those who think differently from us?
Once we choose our candidate, what is it that makes us then question the intelligence of everyone who has chosen otherwise;
or reject the other candidate(s) as corrupt, or incompetent, or … (you know what words you’ve used!)? I
speak for myself, but I’ve heard enough to know I’m not alone. Click here to read the rest of this article... I'm Blogging!  I promised I would start a blog and I did! (OK, I just started, but I
did it!) So check out my blog at and let me know what you think! My hope is that my wonderings
and ponderings will start some interesting discussions and help us to learn from each other's insights. So don't be
shy! Post your comments, agree, disagree, make suggestions... I'm a blogging newbie, so I'm happy to learn the ropes
from you experts out there. You can still attend classes!
If you missed the start of the sessions, but you're interested in dropping in
occassionally to any of the classes on my class schedule, please give me a call. Most of the classes have occasional availability, and I'd love to see you!
Call 773-531-8513 or email me. I can also be contacted via my website. Drop in fee is $14/class. | Mystical Meetup!! Join us on October 1 for the next Mystical
Meetup potluck!
We'll eat delicious food and talk about the philosophical/ mystical /esoteric
topics that are on our minds. Energetics around the election, 2012 prophecy, life after death... Anything is fair game. So
