Private Yoga Studio in Downtown Vancouver!

 
 
I'm so excited to be offering corporate yoga in downtown Vancouver... Here is yet another article showing yet again how beneficial yoga is to office productivity and health!

"Many people are surprised when they learn that you can increase productivity through yoga sessions. Yes, it's true. 

There are numerous companies in the corporate world that focus on conducting corporate yoga sessions in order to enhance the work productivity. It means that yoga gurus can help the corporate sector. Whether you own a small office or a huge enterprise, these yoga classes can help you gain a significant position in the corporate map.

In the past few years, the number of office workers has increased, with the introduction of the personal computer. Spending long hours in front of a computer machine can create a multitude of back, neck, shoulder, spine, hip, and wrist problems. These areas have muscle groups which respond with tension and a variety of long-term problems in case they are ignored by office workers and management.

According to a study conducted by The Medical Research Institute, New Zealand, it has been studied that office workers may be at a higher risk of developing blood clots. Believing on this belief and not jumping to conclusions, anyone who understands body structure would realize that this makes perfect sense.

Based on these various medical studies, today a large number of companies are now adopting this natural way to bring harmony among employees. A short corporate yoga session can help release muscle tension and alleviate the routine pains and aches, which often result from prolonged sitting. The companies which take pro-active measures, by installing corporate yoga programs, are taking positive action toward health solutions for employees – thus, increasing productivity, while decreasing sick time, tardiness, and medical leave.

Corporate yoga instigates an atmosphere of reduced anxiety, less stress, positive thinking, and increased morale. Nothing is more rewarding than feeling worthy and being treated with respect. It is pretty much easier for a small company to start corporate yoga sessions...."

Improve your digestion using yoga!   Oxygen is free, it is abundant, and it is one of the most under-rated tools for creating vibrant health. Learn to use it! Here's why...

Because breath is the only system in our body that is both fully controllable, and fully automatic, by learning to work with our breath we can tap into the autonomic nervous system and affect our body's chemistry.

Dr Andrew Weil, MD, in his lecture "Breathing: The Master Key to Self-Healing" talks about the vast health improvements he's seen his patients go through when they incorporate simple breathing techniques, as little as 5 min/ day, into their daily routine. These included, weight control, improved circulation (no more cold hands!), relief from anxiety and depression, improvement in heart-irregularities including atrial fibrillation, reduction in digestive upset including bloating, constipation, and irritable bowel, cancer remissions, allergies, and a variety of other health-concerns large and small that dissipated over time with short but persistent use of breath-techniques.


By influencing our breath, we can affect our moods, digestion, immune system, hormones, and circulation. Ultimately, we can control our health with breath.
 
In yoga for better digestion we use yogic breath techniques and gentle postures to retrain your diaphragm and lungs to breath deeply and fully, relaxing your body, increasing oxygen, improving circulation, and putting your health back into your hands... and your lungs!

Our breath is indeed the master key to health.

I encourage you to come learn to breathe for your best health and wellness.
So far we've seen some amazing results from these techniques in improving digestive flow, producing abundant energy, revitalizing skin, increasing circulation, and creating overall feelings of well-being. Come join me for a breath-focused Yoga for Digestive Health session, or pass along this information to someone you love who may benefit from learning to breathe for optimal health.

  Digestion: the key to optimal health! Improve your digestion using yoga!   Your digestive tract consists of a long tube from "mouth to out" making human beings essentially HOLLOW! Like a stuck garden-hose, if something's plugged or not functioning fully in your digestive tract, you're going to end up with problems! A combination of bloating, gas, brain fog, mood swings, digestive upset, low energy, depression, sluggish metabolism, acne, inefficient vitamin and mineral absorption, weight gain, GI conditions, and even a number of chronic diseases like diabetes, and heart disease can result from ineffective digestion. To top it off, the vast majority of your body's serotonin is produced in your small intestine. If it's inflamed, it's really hard to feel happy!
 
While each case has its individual cause and effect trail, the basic rules are:
 
1. If you're backed up or stressed, nutrients can't be absorbed (regardless of how many supplements you're taking!)
2. Without available nutrients your body cannot detoxify.
3. With too many toxins, your liver gets overloaded.
4. With an overloaded liver you can't digest properly and more toxicity is created.
5. With high toxicity your body becomes more acidic.
6. With high acidity your body becomes a breeding ground for disease L.
