Most of us who love to practice yoga will sooner or later (the majority of us sooner) need to learn more about our shoulders. If we are not regularly training our upper body, we will definitely run into problems with many of the shapes that yoga offers. These shapes are actually very good for us, but we need to be conditioned properly to get the most benefits.
Desiree Rumbaugh has over 30 years of experience practicing and teaching yoga and she is just beginning to understand how to work properly with her own shoulders!
Please join us as we welcome back this teacher to our vibrant community at Sage for a lively and productive afternoon of learning together.

Students of all levels will benefit from this work and teachers are encouraged to attend so they can better understand and convey this helpful information.

What to expect?
• learn simple bodyweight exercises that will teach you how it feels to keep your shoulder blades on your back
• find out more about what you can do regularly to keep your upper body strong and mobile
• discover the connection between abdominal strength and shoulder health
• learn how to make steady progress in backbends and inversions safely
• explore your options if you currently have a shoulder injury or pain

January: The Untethered Soul: The Journey Beyond Yourself by Michael A Singer

“What would it be like to free yourself from limitations and soar beyond your boundaries? What can you do each day to discover inner peace and serenity? The Untethered Soul offers simple yet profound answers to these questions.

Whether this is your first exploration of inner space, or you’ve devoted your life to the inward journey, this book will transform your relationship with yourself and the world around you. You’ll discover what you can do to put an end to the habitual thoughts and emotions that limit your consciousness. By tapping into traditions of meditation and mindfulness, author and spiritual teacher Michael A. Singer shows how the development of consciousness can enable us all to dwell in the present moment and let go of painful thoughts and memories that keep us from achieving happiness and self-realization.”

February: The Compassionate Connection: The Healing Power of Empathy and Mindful Listening by David Rakel

“All of us have an innate capacity for compassion. We recognize when others are hurting, and we want to help, but we’re not always good at it. There is another way. In The Compassionate Connection, Dr. David Rakel explains how we can strengthen our bonds with others―all the while doing emotional and physical good for ourselves.

As founder and director of the University of Wisconsin Integrative Medicine program, Dr. Rakel discovered that we become the most effective helpers when we use the tool of human connection. Drawing on his own research and practice, as well as thirty years of published studies in medicine, sociology, psychology, meditation, and neuroscience, Dr. Rakel “stacks the deck” in favor of healing and introduces the concept of bio-psycho-spiritual authentic awareness. Not only are our bodies and minds connected, but also it has been scientifically proven that our capacity to feel beauty, awe, and compassion enhances our health and well-being.

In The Compassionate Connection, Dr. Rakelprovides an innovative approach to enhancing health in others and strengthening relationships through the art of connecting. These tools guide us to improve our connections―whether between doctor and patient, husband and wife, parent and child, or boss and employee―and live with clarity, wisdom, and good health.”

Meditation for Release
with Leslie Boyd

Saturday, January 18th, 1:00 – 3:00 pm

Cost: $25 class pre-registration or $35 drop-in

In this session of Yoga Nidra Meditation, you will learn the art of Body Sensing. In its most simplistic form, Body Sensing is using the wisdom of your body to live in the present moment. Access to this tool opens up creativity, personal growth and general well-being.

We will begin session with breath work that will calm the nervous system, gentle movement and a short lecture on your nervous system and how to use the wisdom of your body to find deeper resonance and connection to life.

The second hour, you be in a completely supported restorative yoga pose that will enable the nervous system to drop down into deep relaxation. From there, you will be guided through a Yoga Nidra meditation where the thinking mind will soften and the body can do the work of integration and recovery.

Leslie Boyd, MS, RYT: Leslie completed the 3-year Somatic Experiencing (SE) program in 2017. She believes the body has the capacity and inner engineering to heal itself. This belief informs her practice whether she is working privately with clients in a counseling setting, yoga therapeutics, or teaching an asana class. The practices she shares allowed her to find freedom from chronic pain and illness. She is passionate about sharing these powerful techniques.
