CLASSES: Gentle Yoga/ Prenatal class at Blue Lotus
Anisha Desai teaches a combination of Anusara and Kripalu yoga which are both
schools of Hatha Yoga. She uniquely blends alignment principles of the body,
heart-centeredness and meditation in movement. Anisha loves to revitalize the
body with breath work and gentle stretches followed by a series of key yoga poses
to help open less attended areas in the body. Her classes are both invigorating
and rejuvenating, ending with a deep relaxation to integrate the practice. Within
Anisha's style, all levels of ability and yoga experience are honored for their
unique differences, limitations, and talents. Open to expectant mothers,
prenatal yoga offers the opportunity to reconnect with your innate wisdom.
Linking yoga postures with breath will lead practitioners to new discoveries,
bringing awareness to the mind, body and spirit, and also to the spirit of their
babies. Gentle yoga postures help strengthen the uterus and pelvic muscles,
improve circulation, improve digestion, provide relief for the spine, and
increase overall comfort. Anisha’s class has a compassionate approach,
emphasizing meditation, body awareness and spiritual transformation that
overflows into daily life. In a class, each student learns to find their own
level of practice on a given day by looking inward.

Pan Gu Mystical Qi Gong workshop Hello Everyone!
On June 12th, my husband Paul, and I will be offering a two hour workshop
on one of the most extraordinary styles of Qi Gong (energy cultivation) called Pan
Gu Mystical Qi Gong. Qi = Energy or Life Force
Gong = To cultivate through practice
Pan Gu = God, the Creator of the Universe
Pan Gu Mystical Qi Gong = a Divinely Inspired method or exercise to
cultivate the Divine Essence of the Universe in our own bodies for the purpose of
achieving and maintaining good health, a calm and tranquil mind, happiness, joyfulness,
and the feeling of being truly alive and aligned with the Divine.
Qi Gong is perhaps as old as Chinese culture itself. Throughout their
complex history, the Chinese have used methods of Qi Gong as medicine, as methods of
warfare, as a means to increase memory and intelligence, and as a way to
reach transcendent, ecstatic states of being to commune with the Divine. And yet,
the word "Qi Gong" is a generic term applied to all of these methods.
Traditionally, if one were to embark on the path of Qi Gong, the first three to six months
would be spent just building a charge of Life Force as a foundation, and this
would only be as successful as the practitioner's mental focus. What makes Pan Gu
Mystical Qi Gong unique is that this foundation is transmitted to the
practitioner from the teacher so that the foundation is present instantly
and progress begins at once. The focus required for this Qi Gong is maintained
by the Divine throughout the form without interruption. The results are often
miraculous. If you are interested in a strong and healthy body, a clear,
alert and tranquil mind, and a spirit aligned with the Divine, then we invite you
to join us in this unique experience!
