The meaning of Yoga, in its literal, Post-Classical sense, means "union," and is derived from the Sanskrit root word, yuj, meaning "to yoke" or "to unite." Yoga unites all opposites - mind and body, stillness and movement, masculine and feminine, sun and moon - in order to bring reconciliation between them.
Yoga is an ancient art based on a harmonizing system of development for the body, mind, and spirit. The continued practice of yoga will lead to a sense of peace and well-being, and a feeling of being at one with the environment.
The practice of yoga makes the body strong and flexible, it also improves the functioning of the respiratory, circulatory, digestive, and hormonal systems. Yoga brings about emotional stability and clarity of mind.
I am a 20-year practitioner of Kripalu yoga, and have trained in shaman vinyasa with Ray Crist as part of the Jaguar Path. I have completed 200-hour Jaguar Path Yoga Teacher Training and am pending Yoga Alliance Certification. I am familiar with a variety of yoga styles and can recommend postures and practices that will enhance the energy movement started by the shamanic or hypnotic healing processes.
