If you would like to join me in this Meditation Workshop Series: go over to www.LauraGyoga.com or click: https://www.lauragyoga.com/offerings/the-5-elements-of-life-meditation-series This Meditation Series will help you to better understand the 5 Elements of Life (Tattvas) and how they contribute to your health. In the healing system of Ayurveda (The Science of Life) all things are made up of 5 Elements. The physical world, our bodies, our personalities and experiences all relate back to the 5 Elements of life. Our health, happiness and success rely on the proper balance of these elements. Earth - Water - Fire - Air - Ether Your own expression of these Elements is unique like your finger print. This is why "one size fits all" health advice seldom works. What may bring one person into balance, could throw another out of balance. Learning about the elements in YOUR life & within YOURSELF can give great insight into maintaining balance & wellness throughout your life. Understanding the Elements creates a solid foundation to study Ayurveda and learn about your Dosha (Mind Body Composition based on the elements). Think of this course as the foundation for a deeper study of Ayurveda, self care & yoga as therapy. This course will have 6 Zoom sessions: 1 hour each: 7pm EST You can attend Live or view a Recording which will be provided after each session Mon May 1st: Earth Element Thurs May 4th: Water Element Mon May 8th: Fire Element Thurs May 11th: Air Element Mon May 15th: Ether Element Thurs May 18th: All the Elements & an Introduction to Ayurveda & the Doshas Class Structure: Each Session will include a talk about the Element's qualities & characteristics Breathwork to settle the mind & connect to the Element Guided contemplation to gain insight on the element in your life, your personality & your health A Meditation to deepen your awareness & connection to the element A bit of homework to take with you off your meditation cushion & into your life You will be amazed how an awareness of the elements changes the way you relate to yourself & the world around you!

The final Episode of "Deep Dive Into Yoga" I talk about the Light & Shadow (good and bad) that I have experienced in my 2 Decades of Yoga Practice. There were several times over the past 20 years I nearly quit the practice...thankfully I was able to gain new perspective and my relationship with my practice & the landscape of yoga as a whole matured. Now I take the stance that Yoga is NOT perfect...But that is OK...I Love it anyway! With that being said- we need to take a hard stance against unacceptable behavior in the yoga community. There have been far too many teachers/gurus that have perpetuated abuse under the pretense of teaching yoga. We need to be aware of this & prevent it from occurring ring in the future. It is important for NEW yoga practitioners and teachers to understand that not everything that is conveyed or practiced in yoga circles is healthy- you need to keep your eyes open and your powers of discernment sharp. Decide what you want in your practice & what does not serve you (right now). YOU retain your personal agency & decision making skills. I hope that the struggles and realizations I have experienced will be useful to you. I recognize that these topics are controversial & not everyone will agree or have the same experience - and that is OK. It is important to bring light to these areas & let people decide for themselves :) This is the introduction to a much longer text ("Light & Shadow in Yoga") & discussion that I am currently putting together (who knew I had so many topics to talk about under this concept!)

In this episode I talk about my education, experience (as a yoga teacher & as an OT) to show how these two professions go SO well together! This is to help other OTs or Yoga Teachers to see the path I took to becoming a Yoga Therapist (a question I get a lot of E-mails about). This is also to help my students to gain a better understanding of my education/experience so they know what I can address & what to expect from working with me. I encourage all yoga teachers and yoga therapists to make their education and experience clear to their students- this helps you to find your niche, stay within your scope of practice & attract the students that are looking for YOU! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/yogafocus/support

In this episode I will talk about the many people who could benefit from Yoga Therapy sessions. This includes those with physical health conditions or injuries, mental health conditions, those seeking self development and those suffering from burnout or having difficulty managing a high stress career (Just to Name a FEW!). Yoga Therapy is working to become an integral part of the wellness landscape- bridging the gap between real HEALTH and the Traditional Disease Model. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/yogafocus/support

I often get asked what the difference is between Yoga Therapy and just dropping into a group studio class. Both leave you feeling better right? Well not always. Some students can feel lost in a group class or they may have some medical conditions or physical limitations that cannot be addressed properly in a group class. That is where a 1:1 session can be very helpful- especially when conducted with a Yoga Therapist with an extensive training in how to adapt to the individual! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/yogafocus/support
