Digestion: the key to 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.
 
Healing Digestion is the First Step to Optimal Health!
 
 
This is why I have created Yoga for Digestive Health and Detoxification; a gentle one-on- one yoga practice that uses diet, breathwork, yogic twists, restorative yoga poses, and negative-ion and far-infrared to allow your body to return to optimal health!
 
*Nutritional and lifestyle inquiry to identify the root cause of digestive upset.
 *Oxygenating breath-work slows aging as it detoxifies your blood and creates sustainable energy stores.
*Massaging Yogic twists promote smooth digestive function.
**Restorative yogic postures promote healing relaxation and balance your hormones.
 
*Hot-stone therapy and aromatherapy help you to relax and release.
*Negative-ion heat alkalizes your body and creates detoxifying sweat.
*Kind and approachable atmosphere helps you reach your health and wellness goals.
 
*Convenient location: Downtown Vancouver at Burrard and Robson.
*Take home information and practices to empower your continued growth and wellness!
 
So far we've seen some amazing results from these techniques on improving digestive flow, energy levels, improving skin quality, increasing circulation, and on overall feelings of wellbeing. Come join me for a session, or pass along this information to someone you love who may be challenged by digestive unrest! (Yes! Classes are still happening during the Olympics!)
