WHAT IS YOGA
The secret to health and happiness lies deep within every human. Yoga is the science of discovering one’s own self – the very source of pure consciousness, peace and bliss. Everyone knows that we don’t feel good and we get stressed when there is disharmony in our lives, when our bodies are tired and our busy minds constantly chatter and judge. Through the discipline of Yoga we become more aware of ourselves by doing simple postures, breathing techniques, meditation, and relaxation to rejuvenate the body and quite the mind. It is in this manner that we cultivate harmony in ourselves.

WHAT IS MEDITATION
Settling the surface mind is meditation. Living in the present is meditation. Relaxing deeply is meditation. When you are really happy, reposing in love, you are meditating. Meditation is that space when the thoughts have subsided, and the mind is in complete rest.

WHAT IS SUDHARSHAN KRIYA
Sudarshan Kriya incorporates specific natural rhythms of the breath which harmonize the body, mind and emotions. This unique breathing technique eliminates stress, fatigue and negative emotions such as anger, frustration and depression, leaving you calm yet energized, focused & yet relaxed.
Millions around the world have done this unique practice and have reported better quality of life.

WHAT IS AYURVEDA
Ayurveda is the ancient Indian system of natural & holistic medicine. When translated from Sanskrit, Ayurveda means “the science of life” (the Sanskrit root Ayur means “longevity” or “life” and veda means “science”).
While allopathic medicine tends to focus on the management of disease, Ayurveda bestows us with the knowledge of how to prevent disease and how to eliminate its root cause if it does occur.

ESSENCE OF ALL RELIGIONS IS SPIRITUALITY
All religions, be it Hinduism, Islam, Christianity, Buddhism or Jainism, have three aspects: values, rituals and symbols. Moral and spiritual values are common to all traditions, and the symbols and practices – those rituals and customs that form a way of life within a religion are what distinguish one tradition from another and give each of them their charm! The symbols and practices are like a banana skin, and the spiritual values – the quest for truth and awareness of our divinity – are the banana. However, people in every tradition have thrown away the banana and are holding onto the skin.

Betty Jampel, LCSW talks to us about Sprituality.Young Living Essential Oils with Janet and Connie – Live Interview
Janet – http://www.wellnesspurposeabundance.com/yl/janet
Connie – http://www.angeltouchtherapies.com
http://www.massagenerd.com The goal of Angel Touch Therapies is to facilitate new pathways of healing so you may achieve balance in mind, body, and spirit. It is my belief that you have an innate ability to heal. Oftentimes, people experience pain physically, emotionally, and spiritually because something within them blocks the healing process.
Angle Touch Therapies offers a variety of therapies that can dissolve that which prevents a balance of mind, body, and spirit.
Just a bit of information about myself. I was a flight attendant for over 33 years and had wonderful experiences of flying all over Europe. I was always doing mini massages on my flying partners as we winged our way to international destinations.
In 1999, I became a Reiki Master Teacher and just worked friends, family and myself. I always wanted to do more hands on bodywork and was given that opportunity in 2003 when I became a licensed massage therapist. Towards the end of massage school, I was introduced to Young Living essential oils. Wow!! I was totally amazed at how YL’s essential oils were so different than those bought in my local health food store.
Since graduating, I have specalized in CranioSacral and aromatherapy massage. All my massages or CranioSacral include Young Living’s essential oils and I am constantly amazed at the results my clients experience.
