Greetings, and welcome to my new home on the Web. I’ve wanted to set up an Internet site for a while, mainly to provide my students with a place to check my schedule for classes and workshops. My plans have grown, however, and I’m now working on offering additional information, including pointers on basic poses that students will encounter in my classes (you will be able to refer to this information when you practice on your own), and resources for yoga practitioners.
I am also inviting friends and colleagues to offer their expertise on various topics related to care of body and mind. I believe that if we pool our knowledge and share what we have learned, we can help each other, and our days, be a little brighter. Yogabright’s first exclusive article was written by Peggy Altman, a licensed massage therapist and esthetician. Click on the link to read her article, “Brighten Your Skin With the Basics,” for useful tips on perking up your complexion.
When I was mulling a name for my site, I thought about what words describe how I typically feel after taking a yoga class. “Taller” came to mind. Also “spacious,” “relaxed,” “softer.” And then, “brighter.” Ahhh! That word seemed to encompass all the others. It also perfectly describe the look I see on the faces of many yoga students after their practice.
I hope that your yoga practice helps brighten your day, and that your practice brings a smile to your lips.
Namaste
Louise
