According to Ayurveda, Fall is one of the best times of the year for performing a cleanse. In fact a traditional Ayurvedic cleanse is most ideal during the transitional seasons of the Fall and Spring Seasons.

This 7-day cleanse is a brief but very effective program designed to incorporate all the traditional protocols of Ayurvedic Panchakarma, in an at-home experience.

We will prepare a delicious cleanse meal, “kitchadi” at the initial meeting and discuss all the components and various instructions for the cleansing week. I will review and answer any questions or concerns during the meeting.

Rest assured, I will be available during your cleanse week to support and guide you through the days.

Join us for a wonderful experience, and an opportunity to cleanse and detoxify to create balance and healing

AYURVEDA IN MODERN TIMES – 21 DAY DETOX

Detox, Refresh, and Renew Your Body and Mind

STARTS SATURDAY, JANUARY 14TH, 2017 – 3:00PM – 4:30PM

It is very helpful to temporarily make changes to our daily routines, that may open us up to seeing and feeling from new perspectives, and a deeper inquiry of our habits which are supporting our health and which are undermining it. By mobilizing metabolic wastes through a cleansing diet, exercise, and massage, and clearing out mental and emotional wastes through practices such as meditation and breathing exercises, our cleansing program will serve as a way to “jump-start” your own process of self-healing and determination. Each week we will identify opportunities and practices that will enhance the cleansing process. This experience is NOT an all or nothing plan, but rather an adaptation of principles that can be implemented for daily living and improved health and vitality.

MALAS & MOJITOS WORKSHOP

Friday July 1, 2016

7:00pm – 9:00pm

$75.00

at Yoga Shack – 101 Floral Ave., Bethpage, NY 11714
yogashackinfo@gmail.com • 516.395.0121

A mala (the Sanskrit name for ‘garland’) is a set of beads traditionally worn and used for meditation. Malas are typically made of 108 beads (108 being a sacred number in many Eastern cultures) and serve to keep count of the wearers affirmations by focusing their awareness and staying mindful in the present moment.

Explore the therapeutic energy by creating and practicing your own mala during a 2-hour workshop. Inspired by tradition, you will be guided through making your own mala and how to use it along with a vedic mantra (or you can use an affirmation of choice). As you create, you will have the opportunity to infuse your mala with the power of your intention! A variety of gemstones will be used and all the mala materials are provided – just bring yourself!!

Weekend Workshops & Mysore Style Self Practice

The Modern Improvement Club
themodernic.com
180 Michael Drive • Syosset, NY 11791 • 516.584.3444

3 workshops: Friday 6:00-8:30pm; Saturday and Sunday 1:00-3:30pm
2 Mysore Practices: Saturday & Sunday 7:30-9:30am

• Mysore Class: $40single/$70 for both days
• Full Weekend Investment: $250
• Single Workshop Class: $65

Fri Oct 28th, 2016

6:00 PM – 8:30 PM

Workshop 1 – FUNdamentals of Transitions

Transitioning in and out of postures in Ashtanga is as important, if not MORE important, than the posture itself. And yet, to practice with precision, these counted positions are also even more challenging!

This workshop will focus on moving from your center and moving effortlessly through the challenging but also FUN transitions of Ashtanga yoga – with a very special emphasis on chaturanga, of course!

Sat Oct 29th, 2016

1:00 PM – 3:30 PM

Workshop 2 – Hip and Stable

Hips are central to so many yoga poses because the pelvic area that includes the hips, is where we harness most of our bandha power. And why this workshop emphasizes not only the opening of the largest joint in the body, but also a strong emphasis on keeping the pelvis stable, through a combination of standing and seated postures. You will gain a greater understanding of your hips and increase your range of motion in all directions and include asana work in Baddha Konasana, Marichasanas, Supta Kurmasana, Legs Behind Head postures and Lotus. Don’t be intimidated by the names of postures! We ALL use our hips to stand, sit, walk etc… Gaining more access in the hips and improving range of motion is for everyone!!

Sun Oct 30th, 2016

1:00 PM – 3:30 PM

Workshop 3 – A BackSTRONG Workshop

If you’ve never experienced pain in back bending – consider yourself lucky. Because most of us from the very bendy to the NOT very bendy have found ourselves at our breaking point – though figuratively and thankfully, not literally! Because back bending is not really as much about being bendy as it is about lengthening the backside of the body in exactly the places we feel stuck and in pain. There are lots of elements at play here: the openness and strength of our shoulders, hips and legs as well as the very proportions we were born with.

Gain the courage and confidence to begin dropping back into a place unknown – with feet firmly planted and the ability to lift out of the painful spots many students encounter.

Mysore Self Practice Saturday & Sunday October 29-30th

7:30-9:30am

These classes are small and friendly so don’t be shy, come along and join our weekend of Mysore self practice classes with international teacher Peg Mulqueen.

Here’s what to expect

• We’re limiting each class to a small group of students so you’ll get lots of individual attention with all the group energy of a conventional class.
• Time to get to know Peg and for her to get to know you and your practice inside out. By the end of the week you’ll be much clearer on what you should be focusing on and have some techniques to help you work on challenging areas of the practice.
• In a Mysore Self Practice Class you each practice at your own pace without being guided through each pose by the teacher – eek! That means it’s not a led, guided or counted class where everyone is doing the same pose at the same time. The amount of attention, the discipline and the dedication of practicing daily will help you develop a deeper connection between teacher, student, and this amazing practice. That’s why we ask you to commit to both, Saturday & Sunday Mysore practice days…
  In the mysore room, Peg’s energy is uplifting and caring, as she meets every student where they are – no matter where that is. We hope you’ll feel encouraged and inspired!
