SUMMARY:Yoga & Acupuncture to Shake Off Winter - In Studio Only
DESCRIPTION:with Daniel Orlansky\, Lynda Danzig\, L.Ac. M.Ac.\, & Ilana Margalit\, L.Ac\, M.Ac \nAn afternoon to shake off winter and move in the direction of fresh possibilities\nClick Here To Register \nJust as the crocuses push through the frozen earth we too will emerge from our winter’s slumber come springtime. Join Daniel Orlansky and acupuncturists Lynda Danzig and Ilana Margalit for a two-hour Spring Equinox workshop where we will shake off winter and move the energy in the direction of fresh possibilities. In Chinese medicine\, spring is the wood element\, ruled by the liver and gallbladder meridians. By allowing the wood element to flow through us\, we acquire flexibility\, and the clarity of vision to see our true direction. \nBeginning with gentle breath work\, meridian stretching and Qigong\, students will finish in a restorative yoga position to receive an ear acupuncture treatment specifically designed to enhance the wood element\, helping us grow to our full potential by balancing our energies. \nThe ear or auricular acupuncture treatment will last about 20–25 minutes. Ear acupuncture is based on the idea that the ear is a microsystem of the entire body. This idea originates from Ancient Chinese texts\, and was developed more fully in the 1950s by Dr. Paul Nogier of France. The treatment offered at this workshop will use the points that calm the nervous system (Point Zero)\, relax the mind (Spirit Gate)\, and support emotional balance (the Auricular Liver Point). \nThis is the perfect way to spend a relaxing and nourishing Sat. afternoon. Bring family and friends. \nDaniel\, ERYT 500 is a teacher at Laughing Dog and has studied yoga and meditation for over forty years\, He has taught since 1992 in Europe and America. He is the originator of Meridian Yoga\, and certified in Kundalini Yoga (as taught by Yogi Bhajan)\, Jnana Yoga\, and Kali Ray TriYoga; also a graduate of the Boston Shiatsu School\, and an enthusiastic student and teacher of Qigong. \nLynda B. Danzig\, L.Ac.\, M.Ac.\, is a practicing massage therapist and acupuncturist. She received her massage therapy training from the Institute of Therapeutic Studies in Santa Ana\, CA\, and her master’s degree in acupuncture from the New England School of Acupuncture in 2000. Lynda provids massage therapy and acupuncture in a variety of settings including her own private practice\, Brigham and Women’s Hospital/Osher Clinical Care Center\, collaborating with allopathic and allied health partners. There have been unique opportunities as well\, such as the L.A. marathon and clinical observations in the City Hospital in Wuhan\, China and Tibet. Lynda is currently at MCR Chiropractic and Rehab in Newton Highlands\, MA. \nIlana Margalit\, L.Ac.\, M.S.\, is a licensed acupuncturist\, Chinese Herbalist and Nourishment Counselor. She obtained her Master’s of Science in Traditional Chinese Medicine from the American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in San Francisco\, and also studied at the Zhe Zhiang College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in China. In private practice since 2004\, she treats a variety of conditions – neck pain\, back pain and anxiety are some of the most common. In addition\, Ilana works with perinatal and menopause issues. As a nourishment counselor Ilana strongly believes that food is the one medicine we take every day\, and that making wise food choices can have profoundly positive effects on our overall physical\, emotional\, and spiritual well-being. \nClick Here To Register \nTime: 3-5p \nCost: $49 – Limited to 16 students

SUMMARY:Usui/Holy Fire III™ Reiki II w/ Emily Peterson
DESCRIPTION:Sat. 1/21 – 12:30-7:30p & Sun. 12/22 – 12:30-4:30p \nCost – $275  Buy Now – click and scroll down \nPre-Requisite – Usui/Holy/Fire III™ Reiki I (if you have trained in another tradition contact Emily – emilypeterson10@gmail.com) \nIn this experiential workshop\, you will learn the Level Two Reiki symbols. When used\, these symbols unlock higher levels of healing\, provide additional healing techniques\, and enhance the benefits of Reiki healing. The Reiki II placement further refines and strengthens the Reiki energy.  The Level Two training focuses on the symbols\, with ample practice time included in the class. \nThe class material also includes: \n\nBrief discussion of Reiki I – sharing experiences since placement\nReiki II placement\nReiki II symbols – complete meanings\, attributes\, and usage\nDrawing and memorizing the symbols\nInformal “Test” on symbols\nHoly Love Experience\nAdditional Japanese Reiki Techniques \nUsing symbols in a Reiki treatment (Hands-on practice)\nProcess for distance Reiki \nDistance Reiki Healing \nAdditional Breath and Energy Circulation meditation and discussion \nCertificates and Closing \n\nAmple time is allotted for both the hands-on body work and discussion with space for questions.  \nReiki is the Japanese name for the energy that envelopes and interconnects all things. It comes from the Japanese words rei (which means holy\, spirit\, mystery\, gift\, universal) and ki (which means life force energy). Reiki is our essential life force and everything alive both contains and radiates it. It is the essential life force of the stars\, the planets\, and everything on earth; it is the source of life in its fundamental state. In the practice we refer to as reiki\, this life force energy is spontaneously and effortlessly passed to the recipient through gentle\, non-invasive placement of the hands above or lightly touching the recipient. \nMost energy healing shares some basic concept of Universal Life Force Energy\, however reiki works on the premise that we all have the innate ability to channel this energy to heal both ourselves and others. It is in our genetic make-up. The reiki practitioner simply needs to be attuned and then to step aside to act as a loving channel for the energy to flow. \nWhat are the benefits of Reiki? Preliminary research shows that reiki may: \n\ndecrease anxiety and depression\nprovide inner peace and sense of well-being\nincrease self-compassion\nlower blood pressure\nprovide deep relaxation to encourage the body’s healing response\ndecrease aches and pains\nprovide deeper\, more restful sleep· decrease recovery time from illness\n\nMore and more people are embracing reiki as a method of self-care and self-healing\, as well as a means for deeper spiritual connection. It is also an incredible gift to offer friends and family\, including our furry friends. \nCost – $275  Buy Now – click and scroll down

SUMMARY:Vinyasa Yoga & Qi Gong Class: Flowing Into Wholeness
DESCRIPTION:with Daniel Orlansky\n  \n\n\nWhen the body flows like running water\, it is always renewed\, always fresh.

In this workshop we will explore the Taoist concept of “effortless flow” through Qi Gong exercises\, and then bring the same ease of motion into sequences from Yoga of Energy Flow\, a vinyasa style. While the movements in both forms are graceful and gentle\, the effects are powerful\, detoxifying the body while increasing strength\, flexibility\, and peace of mind. \nYou will learn: \n• Breathing exercises to enhance life energy\n• Qi Gong exercises to open the meridians\n• Meditative flow in yoga sequences\n• Concentration techniques for mental clarity \nDrop-in $20 or use of 10 class card for this class. If using card email info@ldyoga.com to sign up \n\n\nThis class complements the workshop ‘For Teachers: Tips for Bringing Qi Gong into Yoga Classes‘ also offered Sun. 5/19\, 2:30-4:45p.

SUMMARY:Love Your Body Opening Event
DESCRIPTION:with Artist Robin Okun\n \nJoin us for our Love Your Body Opening Event on Mon. April 1\, 7-8:30p. We are showcasing the powerful and beautiful artwork of local artist\, Robin Okun (see bio and artist statement below).  \nPlease RSVP info@ldyoga.com 781-235-YOGA (9642) so we can get a headcount for refreshments.  \nThis will be a chance to meet workshop/class presenters and hear what they will be offering throughout April & May. Robin O. will give a brief Artist’s Talk\, that includes a somatic experience in relation to her paintings. \nAbout Robin \nRobin has devoted her life to mind body healing as a psychotherapist\, movement therapist\, NIA instructor\, and now visual artist. Robin’s colorful paintings reflect her sensitivity to the complex issues and feelings of body image. Her work is in private collections across the United States and in nationally curated UGallery. Her work can be seen at www.robinokunstudio.com and in her Brookline studio by appointment. \nQuotes from people responding to Robin’s work: \n“As a woman\, Robin’s paintings make me feel at home in my body.” Nikki Davis\, MA\,Newton\, MA. \n“Robin’s artwork moves my soul in a way that words cannot reach. I find myself embracing and accepting my own body more profoundly after exposure to her beautiful paintings.” Jacquelyn Ekern\, MS\, LPC\, President\, Eating Disorder Hope & Addiction Hope\, Redmond\, Oregon. \nArtist Statement: \nThe female form is my recurring theme. My connection to my own body is my instrument. Color is my portal to creativity. \nThe figures in my paintings vary by size\, gesture\, color\, and relationship. I intentionally make the bodies perfectly imperfect\, asserting an expression of body diversity and inclusiveness. \nLayers of acrylic paint and charcoal mirror the histories every body carries. These layers are often seen in the paintings and reflect the process of selectively revealing ourselves and hiding parts that feel shameful or embarrassing. \nWhen I am moved by color or gesture there are striking shifts in the sensations of my body that activate creativity. This process surfaces only when I trust myself enough to detach from my internal critical voices. During these moments it’s as if I embody a life force bigger than myself; something beyond words or explanation.
