the beloved workshop
a daylong retreat for couples, saturday may 31
intimacy is a sacred language which deepens our natural abilities to nurture and expand our loving relationships. to facilitate curiosity and openheartedness we will explore the ways in which you experience intimacy as individuals and as a couple, and how you might deepen or reimagine those experiences. safe, gentle, and practical exercises for the body and mind will guide our inquiry into the dynamics of intimacy.
in love and service, kristie (on April 08, 2008) | #
exciting coverage!
Kristie's class & student in U.S. News & World Report
one of my students in the Gentle Yoga for Cancer Patients class that Jnani Chapman and i teach at UCSF was interviewed for an article on the growing popularity of CAM (complementary and alternative medicine) in the January 21 issue of U.S. News and World Report
"Yoga, a physical activity, has understandable benefits for cancer patients, in whom it helps restore strength and flexibility to muscles weakened by treatment. Alicia Chin has been taking a weekly yoga class for cancer patients at the Osher Center. 'Yoga reteaches the muscles how to work, and it makes me feel good,' says Chin, a 46-year-old San Franciscan. She had a lumpectomy and had two lymph glands removed last March, followed by radiation, and now is enrolled in a clinical trial of a new chemotherapy regimen. 'You get all these drugs pumped into you, you don't want to do anything,' says Chin, a paralegal. She still doesn't have the strength to reach up and paint a ceiling, as she puts it, 'but it really makes a difference.'"
