2009 Yoga Schedule

November's Focus: Immune System

Yoga helps to improve circulation and oxygen flow, and relaxes the nervous system, thereby decreasing the amounts of cortisol in the body. Cortisol is one of the "fight or flight" hormones that is produced when we're stressed, and it weakens the immune system. The entire practice of yoga boosts your immune system, so you're already doing a good thing when you practice.

Specifically, we'll practice poses that stimulate the thymus gland, which lies under the sternum and is critical to the immune system. We'll also throw in some twists that squeeze toxins out of our organs, as well as some pranayama (breathing) exercises to help increase resistance in our respiratory tracts and sinuses.

I'm available for private instruction, whether you want me to teach you one-on-one or you want to gather some friends together and share the cost.
