and
Saturday, Oct. 11th, 11-2 P.M.
Please join us for a special weekend with our teacher, Gabriel Halpern. A father figure to most of us at The Yoga Lounge, a student of BKS Iyengar, and named in the top 10 most influential teachers in America by Yoga Journal, this is an increasingly rare opportunity to study with a teacher with direct lineage to BKS Iyengar who can impart knowledge from his more than 40+ years of study and practice. This weekend, the focus will be on Cardiac/Pulmonary and Respiratory health.
Plus, don’t miss Gabriel’s patented dharma talks on Yoga Archetypes and Aging Gracefully.

Friday, 6-9 p.m.
Yoga And Respiratory Health
Dharma Talk: “Yoga, Psychology and Archetypes”
Our world is suffering from increased pollution. This spills over into the air, the water, the earth, into industrial waste, and the emitting of greenhouse gases creating respiratory ailments and pulmonary diseases.
Yogic management via posture and breath control, gives tremendous leverage over conditions like asthma, COPD, emphysema, bronchitis, and pneumonia.
Today’s sequence will open the lungs and strengthen our immune response to ward off air-borne illness.


Saturday, 11am- 2 p.m.
Yoga And The Healthy Heart
Dharma Talk - “Aging Gracefully”
The world we live in has our nervous system jacked up. Yoga tones down hyper-sensitivity preventing our blood pressure from skyrocketing.
Many cardio-pulmonary problems come from inadequate blood supply. Yogic practices increase circulation and oxygenation to all parts of our body and brain promoting smooth and efficient functioning.
Todays, session is designed to unblock the cardiovascular system and through vasodilation to prevent heart attack, stroke, blood clots angina, and clogged arteries.
