You Can Heal Your Life ®, based on Louise Hay’s book of the same title, is a step-by-step, practical process for identifying and releasing the thoughts, beliefs, and behavior patterns that keep us stuck or undermine our ability to experience inner joy and reach our highest potential. The process teaches us to create peace, harmony and balance in our minds, which naturally extends to the rest of our lives.
Heal Your Life is one of the most powerful and easiest tools for achieving true healing and personal transformation. Anyone can learn and practice these simple, yet powerful techniques. There is no “magic” or secret process. All that is required is a genuine desire to commit yourself to change and a series of practical exercises to make these changes happen. If you have tried “everything” and nothing has worked, this workshop is for you.

From a recent participant in my "You Can Heal Your Life" 6 Week Workshop:"
"I wanted to share some more progress I have made after I took your class (You Can Heal Your Life). I couldn't talk about it in class, but I have OCD. OCD thoughts are not true, so the class was a perfect platform to change my irrational thoughts.
I had counseling years ago and got rid of most of the OCD then, but I had some lingering rituals which were not good for me. One was to suspend any enjoyment like eating or shopping between the hours of 4 pm and 5 pm everyday. Another was to rinse my cat's dish 278 times. I got rid of these by simply shifting my thoughts. It was a miracle! So, thank you."... Anonymous

The Quantum Light Breath is a highly focused breathing meditation process that greatly accelerates the user’s personal transformation by bypassing the conscious mind and releasing old programs directly from the subconscious. Subconscious cleansing opens a powerful portal into our expanded inner awareness, where we experience heightened intuition and guidance to our Highest Self.
Quantum Light Breath provides an effortless dive into the blissful space that resides beneath thought, freeing us to experience a pure sense of Present Moment and intimacy with the Authentic Self. Because The Quantum Light Breath cleans out impurities and toxins from all the various aspects of your being - physical, mental, emotional and spiritual, some participants experience powerful changes even after one session.
The workshop will begin with calming breath to quiet the mind and soothe the nervous system. Through the breath, we will drop out of the "thinking and doing" space into the "being" space. Moving into a gentle posture sequence**, we synchronize our breath and movement, dissolving the deeply held tension in the body. From this open and relaxed space, we flow into the Quantum Light Breath, which consists of a continuous series of artfully choreographed breath techniques, accompanied by rhythmic vibrational sound. The workshop ends with an extended deep relaxation period, allowing a full integration of this deeply intimate and personal experience into the mind, body and spirit.
You will leave this workshop feeling energized and relaxed, focused and expansive, empowered and inspired - all at the same time!

Replenishing the Well - Self Care for the Caregiver
An Afternoon to Rest, Restore & Receive
Many of us spend much of our time attending to the needs of others in both our professional and personal lives. The demands to give, share, and care both at work and at home can feel endless. We may be deeply concerned about others but often our own needs remain unmet. Burnout, exhaustion, compassion fatigue and health issues of our own arise. We have given from the well of our precious life energy rather than the overflow.
This mini retreat will provide a profound opportunity for slowing down, for cultivating stillness in a quiet and nurturing space. You will be guided and supported through a gentle yet powerful blend of Restorative, Yin and Kundalini Yoga, along with meditation, mantras & breath work, all carefully chosen to soothe and recalibrate the nervous system. A simple self-massage will be taught using calming Ayurvedic oils.
Be prepared to relax, release, rebalance and emerge with daily practices you can easily incorporate into your life.
This workshop is suitable for health care professionals, therapists, teachers, hospice care providers, people caring for aging parents, parents of special needs children, people caring for the chronically ill and anyone providing care for others on a regular basis. The yoga is suitable for all fitness and yoga levels.

Freedom From Fear: Self-Healing After Trauma
An Eight Week Kundalini Yoga Course for Women*
This course is for women who have experienced prolonged exposure to stress or trauma, regardless of the cause. In a safe and supportive small group environment, we will practice movement, breath, mantra, meditation and deep relaxation to reclaim the body and quiet the mind. The course is an evidence-informed, clinically tested Kundalini yoga program that was developed after medical and scientific research documented that the body stores stress and trauma deeply in the muscles and the brain circuits. The effects of stored trauma may include nightmares, anxiety, panic attacks, depression, chronic fatigue, insomnia, fear, compromised immune system, and an inability to release the repetitive negative and fearful thoughts in the mind. Stored trauma can also lead to negative self defeating behavior patterns, substance abuse and addiction. The eight week curriculum provides release, relief and the tools to engage the body’s natural healing resources to reconnect with the body in a healthy way and move from a state of reactivity to an experience of safety and calm. This specialized yoga program addresses the underlying cause of PTSD and trauma, not just the symptoms, through the powerful combination of physical and mental exercises, breath work and meditations that were created to target the specific areas that have retained the trauma. As the body’s ability to self heal activates, the stored trauma is released, and a sense of security, connection and purpose return, breaking the chronic repetitive pattern of the trauma. This program is suitable for everyone, regardless of age, size, fitness level or flexibility and no prior yoga experience is necessary. Date: Thursdays, Beginning Apr. 3, 2014 Time: 3:30 – 5:00 pm Location: Divinitree Yoga & Art Studio 25 E. De La Guerra St. Santa Barbara, CA 93101 (get directions to this location) Tuition: $225 Pay Pal, cash, check, Visa or Mastercard accepted * FREE Information / Demo Class: Sat, Mar. 22, 1:00 - 2:30pm For questions, contact Vikki: vikki@healinglifeyoga.com Pre-registration is required prior to the first class. Space is limited, so please register early. *For more information about Vikki's program, Yoga for Stress, Trauma & PTSD, click Here |
