Another Neti Pot!

Teresa H. sent me this link to a neti pot she found online. It's just like mine, only cheaper! I found it at Natural Grocers Vitamin Cottage for $16.00. Thanks for sharing the link Teresa!

Change in schedule.

I am sad to inform you all that due to personal reasons I am no longer able to teach yoga Monday and Wednesday evenings at 5:30. I'm handing these classes over to a fellow yogi and friend, Corrine Andrews. Corrine is a wonderful teacher who has subbed for me several times over the past couple months so she is very familiar with Accolade Fitness and it's yoga students. You are all in great hands. Enjoy your new classes and I hope to see you on Saturdays from 8:30 - 10:00 am.

Namaste,
Kathy

Neti Pot to Stay Healthy

We talked about the neti pot last Saturday and how it's a great tool to help keep you healthy. Here's a link with information on this very interesting Ayurvedic cleansing practice. Neti pots are becoming more main stream. You can find them in health food stores, Target, Walgreens, etc. I got mine from Natural Grocers, but now have my eye on a copper one! There are many different styles to choose from that range between $10-$20. Watch a demonstration video and learn how the neti pot works. Give it a try and post your comments!

Saturday, October 24, 2009 - Yoga with a Drum Beat

Austin Miller will be joining us again this Saturday bringing live drumming to our yoga flow. We'll explore and become more comfortable listening to our bodies so that we feel more confident in our yoga practice at home. Come experience your own rhythm.

Welcome, Corinne!

Fellow Yogis,

I will be taking a trip to St. Louis this week to visit family and my doctor/mentor, Dr. Jeffrey Hoffman. He is the one who started me on my healing journey, which led me to yoga. I am really looking forward to spending a substantial amount of time on personal healing and growth. This something I strive for in my personal yoga practice, and what I try to offer when teaching. I am looking forward to sharing with you when I return! While I'm away I'm leaving you in good hands. Please welcome Corinne Andrews back to our little yoga community at Accolade Fitness. I am so excited that she has graciously agreed to take care of the following yoga classes while I'm away:

Saturday, October 10, 8:30 - 10:00 a.m.

Monday, October 12, 5:30 - 6:30 p.m.

Wednesday, October 14, 5:30 - 6:30 p.m.

This is a great opportunity for you to receive a new and wonderful yoga experience! You can check out Corinne's website to learn more about her and her Ashtanga/Hatha teaching style at http://www.yogafied.com.

I will be back to teach starting Saturday, Oct. 17. See you then!

May you be happy.
May you be at peace.
Namaste.

Yoga Article

Hi All,

Yoga with Kathy was just featured in an on-line article on Examiner.com! Check out the link for the Colorado Springs Budget Living Examiner article written by Mackenzie Pidgeon. It shares ways to practice yoga on a budget. Maybe it gives you some ideas on how to incorporate a more varied and frequent yoga practice. Let me know what you think!

Ayurvedic Medicine

Thanks to everyone who was able to make it to our Dosha Yoga class today. It was so much fun! I hope you learned a little more about yourself and have a clearer understanding of how you can nurture yourself more, creating a greater balance in your your lives using Ayurvedic's holistic approach to health. As promised, I've listed a few websites that I find interesting and helpful in understanding Ayurvedic principles and practices (see Ayurvedic Resources in the right column of this blog for links.)

Peace and Happiness,
Kathy
