Did that title grab your attention? According to Edward Bach, an English doctor, bacteriologist, homeopath, and spiritual writer, best known for developing the Bach flower remedies—a form of alternative medicine inspired by classical homeopathic traditions—came up with the idea that Dis-Ease happened because of one of three things, or a mix of them: MEN or NEM or EMN or ENM

• Mechanical Imbalance

• Emotional Imbalance

• Nutritional Imbalance

Now, what do you think about that? Makes sense to me. So I have done a little something.

As we dive into any Mechanical or Physical Imbalances here at the studio, we have also connected with two other people. Heather Frost, MS, RDN, Licensed Dietitian Nutritionist, & Patricia Pace, aka Emotional Therapist with a whole bunch of acronyms behind her name. Chris & I personally go to her and really enjoy our sessions.

Stress, in my opinion, is clearly one—if not the greatest—cause of Dis-Ease. Think about it: you break a leg and you can't work out, your diet may change, and you might get a bit sad at times. Here is another example: you have an unfortunate event occur, it shifts your mood to either cope with food or drinking, your physical state feels exhausted, and you can't wrap your head around your emotions. You’re getting the point, right?

Auto-Immune Dis-Eases are on the rise, because we are living in such a stressed-out world. Go go go... And then even the yoga has become go go go,

Exhale
Exhale
Exhale

So when do you set time to inhale? Hopefully here, with our little family in the woods, where breathing and mindful movement is completely attainable. In this fast-paced growing yoga scene, we focus on giving you that space to move intentionally and slow enough to not lose your breath or get caught up in the go go go yoga scene. It is not a fashion statement here. You are greeted with hugs, and you can even wear pajama pants to class if you want. We can't say yoga is therapy, but when you feel as high and relaxed as you do leaving, you can decide that for yourself.

Your Spirit & Existence is important to us. Why, you ask? Because we live in this Big, yet little world, and we have to co-exist—and wouldn't you prefer it to be a pleasant experience? I know my preference. And one thing I have been doing is sharing My Day Themes that help me in the process of honoring my mindbody.

Did you know that the emotion of Summer is Joy? And since Summer is officially here, come frolic and en"Joy" yourself and one another at some of our events where you can practice your truth, speak your truth, be your truth in a sacred and collaborative space.

Raleigh NC Yoga is just our little space in this little town where we can come together & Breathe (y Respira!) with the Standing People (Trees).
