Lifewaves yoga is a practical approach to integrating the concepts and principles of yoga into daily life. As yoga becomes more accepted by the general public as well as the medical community, there also continues to be many misconceptions as to what yoga is really all about.
Many see only what has been popularized in recent years where yoga has been reduced to just another “work-out” or exercise class, complete with sweating, straining, and pushing to “achieve” the postures. Many people feel that they can’t do yoga, and many people end up getting hurt, or at least finding it uncomfortable because of not being introduced to it properly. Yoga is not the exercises! It’s the way you do the movements and the attention that you bring to it (mindful movement) that makes it yoga. Yoga is a science of awareness and self-discovery. The word yoga means “union”. Any activity can be “yoga” when it is performed with increased awareness of mind/body/breath together in the present moment.
The focus of Lifewaves is on the individual, and emphasizes the therapeutic aspects of yoga in the rehabilitation of injury * treating chronic aches & pains * exercise and sports performance * relaxation/stress-management & meditation.
Ultimately, yoga is a solitary practice, even if you’re in a large yoga class. So, if you’ve wanted to explore yoga but have been hesitant due to injury, chronic pain, or just being out of shape, Lifewaves yoga can provide a safe, guided introduction, addressing your specific needs, regardless of ability or physical limitations. If you would like to “discover” how to integrate yoga into your life for Mind/Body Health Maintenance, Lifewaves may be the answer!
