YOGA: Today, Tue, Wed and Fri Message-ID: Dear Friends, While most of U-C was celebrating 'graduation' and Mother's Day -- I've just returned from facilitating a retreat. I'm sure the participants who attended are re-entering earth's orbit and have not had time to write a testimonial -- so for right now, you'll just have to take my word for it: The retreat changed the lives for those who attended. They came seeking relief from their worries. D was worried that she didn't know her life's purposes. J need to stop "running away." R needed to save her investment in a business that she was puttering around with. K (thought) she needed to decide whether to divorce her husband. B was destroying her health by sabotaging her diet. S was holding a resentment against her oldest friend. They rested; they retreated; they discussed. They journaled & collaged. They answered the "four questions." They turned around their thinking. They uncovered and owned their unique passion. They connected with the divinity … …in a campfire, in an oak tree, and in their own hearts. They discovered and clarified their own "intention" and identified the blocks that would prevent them achieving their happiness. It was amazing -- and I am relishing in the afterglow from all the positive energy that was exchanged. In that spirit; I want to give a gift to you. A significant part of the weekend was yoga and meditation. Our teacher/ yoga leader for the weekend is Shelley Masar. She teaches yoga at my office / studio four days a week. Please accept a gift of a yoga class from Shelley and I today or later this week. If you would like ~~ to register for the free yoga class ~~ information about the next retreat ~~ or to receive my (usually) weekly email called "Reasonable Life" that contains tidbits about living a healthy lifestyle in the Urbana Champaign area… ... just go to this web page and scroll to the bottom of the page. http://www.reasonablediet.com/may_free_offer.html Have a great week living the life of your dreams!
