YOGA for HAITI
The idea is simple.
Each of us asks our yoga studio (where you practice or teach) to promote an emergency fundraiser called YOGA for HAITI (raising funds through a special class; for a day, a week,
a month). The studio then donates collected amount to an NGO of their/your choice. (ex: Red Cross, CECI, C.A.R.E, Oxfam, Unicef).
I will be forwarding this email to as many studios as I can. Feel free to
forward to friends and to your studio. I will follow up emails to studios
with a personal call. If you'd prefer me to contact your place of practice,
send me the info.
This is my spontaneous initiative to help our brothers and sisters of Haiti.
I'm not sure how much work is involved but I am commited to jump-starting
it. If things grow out of hand, some help will appreciated. Let me know if
you are interested.

EXPAND YOUR ENERGY
through a
Bio-Cosmo-Energy Treatment
Bio-Cosmo-Energy focuses on our unity of
spirit (cosmic energy) and body (material earth energy).
Our bodies are animated by the universal energy coursing within. Our psyche, interrelates between spirit and body. A split, or dichotomy, between spirit and body shows itself as a dis-balance, dis-ease or a sickness in our bodies. These dysfunctions are frequently not even recognized for what they are, since a lifetime of societal conditioning has trained us to ignore, or worse mistrust, our real feelings.
In a healthy body the energy is fluid and light, vibrating in a harmonious frequency.
A Bio-Cosmo-Energy treatment stimulates a source we may not even be aware of: the energy of our essence. Through guided energy work this potential is brought up from the depths through several layers until we can start to “know” what our soul is really trying to tell us.
|

|
|

|
The focal points are the three main energy channels; sumsumna, ida and pingala, which form the Kundalini channel located in and along the spine. Bio-Cosmo-Energy treatments may also assist in liberating this “nerve of awareness”. Symbolized by a coiled serpent in the sacral plexus, this latent energy is encouraged to rise upwards. Used consciously, this cosmic life-force can allow us “go less troubled” through this era of rapid transformation. We may even start to appreciate it! |
|
Since physical energy-blockages are often the result of unconscious emotions trapped within the body, the receiver decides whether to go consciously into a profound self-reflection or to just allow the physical to release of these emotions. Naturally, deeper reflection results in a freer flow of energy throughout the body thus encouraging long term physical and emotional health.
Experience has shown that these Bio-Cosmo-Energy treatments frequently evolve into a very deep meditation, a conscious experience of the unification of spirit, free mind and body.

Toronto (at Catfish Yoga, the Yoga Sanctuary and others) and here in Montreal (at Centre Luna Yoga, Studio Bliss, and others) as well as at the Sivananda Ashram in Val Morin Québec.
