The Convergence of Yoga and Creativity

Yoga and creativity share a special connection. Both require us to move beyond the confines of the familiar, to explore the unknown, and to embrace the perspective of a beginner—a fresh lens through which we see the world. This convergence of yoga and creativity is a catalyst for inspiration, opening doors to new ideas, perspectives, and ways of being.

Yoga therapy is fundamentally about empowering you to take an active approach to self-care through the tailored application of yoga.

iRest: Active Resting That Heals

iRest Yoga Nidra can be perceived as resting, especially since rest is in the name, and we all are not people who rest. Resting can even be a bit scary. It is easy to wonder: Will everything be OK if I slow down and rest? What if I told you that iRest Yoga Nidra is active resting? You are doing something. You are actively listening to a voice, following the prompts, re-wiring your brain, and improving your health.

What is Reiki?

Reiki’s History and Use in Western Medicine Settings

Reiki (pronounced Ray-Key) is an ancient Japanese hands-on healing art, often described as “energy healing.” It was developed in Japan in the 1920s by Dr. Mikao Usui and brought to the United States in 1937 by Hawayo Takata. Reiki continues to gain popularity in the West as a useful Complementary and Alternative Medicine, with The Center for Reiki Research (2019) listing “76 hospitals, medical clinic and hospice programs where Reiki is offered as a standard part of care,” including prestigious medical institutions such as Duke, Columbia Presbyterian, and John Hopkins. According to Miles (2008), Reiki “is being delivered in the most stressful of settings—the cardiac-care unit, the delivery room, the operating room, intensive-care units, and the emergency room (p. 205).
