I
will be in China for the publishing of a book I have written.
Some promotion info can be seen here.
(I wrote the book but not the promotion material, which I actually
find a little embarrassing!) So I will be in Beijing and Shanghai,
and probably Kungming until the end of June. In the past, when
I was away from teaching yoga I always took yoga classes. This
time, if I can escape from promotion obligations, I will be studying
Qi Gong and share what I hope to learn with my students and clients
when I return.

Just read a new study by researchers at University of Iowa and the
Technical University of Aachen, Germany, which used a special brain
imaging technology, called "functional magnetic resonance imaging"
(fMRI), and found that hypnosis alters brain activity in a way that
might explain pain reduction by hypnosis. Details
here.

Cable Ch19's The Melody Show on the topics of Yoga, hypnotherapy

small part of the interview will be aired on Thursday, June 16,
at 8:00 pm. The major part is scheduled to air two weeks later
Thursday, June 30, also at 8:00 pm. There is a third part of the

Along with 20 other Yoga teachers from various parts of the country,
I attended a four-day Silver Age Yoga workshop held at the Pacific
Athletic Club in Del Mar. Gerontologists and physicians from UCSD
School of Medicine and other medical centers lectured on arthritis,
osteoporosis, and pulmonary diseases, stress and other age related
topics. The information was presented in the context of how Yoga
teachers can best understand the health conditions in order to tailor
their Yoga teaching. The organizers, renowned Yoga teachers Frank
and Serpil Iszak, taught us how to teach seniors seated and chair-supported
yoga postures while keeping in mind the benefits and contraindications
of each posture. The workshop was tremendously helpful for a Yoga
teacher like me, who was used to teach Yoga to physically able bodies.
More and more, however, I realized that people who come to me to
learn Yoga have many and varied physical conditions. I hope that
my effort in further understanding these conditions will translate
into better services to my clients.

New class added: Friday's Lunch Break Yoga Class at 6450 Lusk Blvd,
