Yoga in Paradise

September 20, 2010 by Julie Lusk

I’m still on Cloud 9.

I was invited to teach at Sivananda Ashram on Paradise Isle, Bahamas. This included 1 satsang called Mind Body Mystery, Mastery and Magic and 2 workshops and that grew to 4 workshops. Healing with Guided Imagery, Goddess Yoga and Real Relaxation with Yoga Nidra were the topics. Yoga Nidra was so popular, I offered it twice! People attended from Israel, Indonesia, France, Germany, England, Canada, USA, Brazil, Columbia, SA, and many other places. It was really neat.

Did I mention that this was the Symposium on Yoga and Sacred Healing? The other presenters I was blessed to be with included Amy Weintraub and Rose Kress (Yoga for Depression), Joseph and Lilian Lepage (Yoga Mudras), Zicciah Blackburn (Entering the Heart) and Elizabeth Lesser (Broken Open).

Sivananda yoga was quite the experience. We had 2-hour yoga classes daily. It was wonderful to be in someone else’s class. It was a very structured sequence for sure and not at all how I teach. All the postures were done in a specific order every time. They even counted everything out all the time, including the breaths. This has been like this for decades. There were 2 satsang’s per day with 25 minutes of silent meditation and 25 minutes of chanting followed by an hour long presentation and more chanting.

Everything was outside. Everything! All yoga classes, satsangs, meals, and everything else. A lot of people even lived outside in tents. I was grateful for an indoor room. The weather couldn’t have been better and the ocean and bay were magnificent. I’ve never seen water that color before. It really was like being in paradise and I can’t wait to go back and I’d love it if you would join me.

PS. If you’d like to experience the healing nature of Real Relaxation and Yoga Nidra but you missed it in the Bahamas here’s how. Just get a copy of my CD called Real Relaxation and Yoga Nidra.

Desktop Yoga Workshop

Chair Yoga for the Workplace keeps employees alert and productive during the business day.

Contact Julie Lusk by email for details and scheduling to book her for your Employee Training, Conference, Workshop, and Lunch and Learn sessions.

Simple chair exercises can help prevent chronic problems such as lower back and neck pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, and other repetitive stress injuries.

A study in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) showed that yoga-based chair exercise and stretches are more effective in reducing carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms than using wrist splints or no treatment (Nov. 11, 1998). Desktop Yoga ™ can also improve morale, productivity, attitudes and attendance.

As the creator and author of Desktop Yoga ™ (Penguin Group, 1998), Julie Lusk has designed ‘do it now ‘ exercises that can be done right at the workstation that are effective, portable and easy.

During a typical session, participants will:

Learn to do self-care chair yoga stretches that can be done at their own desk. Specific stretches are done for the neck, shoulders, wrists, face, back and legs. Sequences are also available to increase energy, improve creativity or to reduce frustration.
Take a “2- hour nap in 2-minutes”.
Receive a brief review on the importance of proper ergonomics.

The Business Courier featured the value of Desktop Yoga in the article “Training the Body to Coast can help with Relaxation.” (pdf)

One of the most effective ways of letting go of work stress before you get home is by taking care of it as it arises, said Julie Lusk, author of “Desktop Yoga ®.” Lusk, president of Wholesome Resources, a stress-management company in Milford, teaches people how to do stretches, breathing and relaxation techniques right at their desks to relieve tension and get on with the day. See this article.

“Julie Lusk has a unique style of presentation that seems to peer inside each member of her audience. Her wellness workshops in yoga, relaxation, and stress management include an extra dimension that leaves an imprint of peace and mindfulness on each participant.

Blue Moon Rising CD has released!!

October 15, 2012 by Julie Lusk

Miracles do happen! Synchronicity too!

The Blue Moon of August set the scene for the recording of my newest CD. This one features 16 beautiful tracks played on the Native American style flute with the sounds of Mother Nature as the backdrop.

The Blue Moon was the day I got a brand new wooden flute from Joseph Whitefeather and Sage Mato. The flute is beautiful and has the most amazing sound. He promised me that it is a healer. He was right! What a welcome surprise it was when the flute music began pouring out of me like a waterfall, so naturally and easily. It had healed me from the remnants of fear and doubt that had plagued my musicality since I was a kid. I felt so happy.

I played the flute during my yoga classes the first chance I got. Folks really appreciated how relaxing it was and commented on its healing sound. Quite a few encouraged me to make a recording so they could enjoy it whenever and wherever they want. Here is what is happening. Marilyn listens to it in her truck. Diana plays it when she gives a massage. Mary listens to it on her daily walk, Susan and her daughter listen on their way to school, several play it before bed, and Kate said that not only does she like it, her dog does too.

To celebrate, Blue Moon Rising is on sale until Nov. 15. Why wait?

Julie’s Music History
Julie has loved exploring music since childhood. She babysat 5 boys when she was in 6th grade for 50 cents an hour to buy her first stereo.

Julie studied piano from elementary school through college. Crushed but undeterred, she was rejected from the choir in 5th grade. Recitals were a disaster with awful memories of freezing up like a statue. Even though her self-esteem hurt for decades, she never gave up. For years, she only played for her pets.

Julie started playing classical flute when the Lusks owned a music store. She began playing Native American flutes about 10 years ago. Julie also plays harmonium, Tibetan bowls, chimes, didgeridoo, drums, and the harp. Julie was a Drums for Fun member for 15 years.

Julie is Certified by the Sound Healing Academy (SHA) in the Foundations of Integral Sound Healing for Multi Instruments – Level 1. The course covered how to give individual and group sound healing sessions. It included how to play singing bowls, tuning forks, gongs, chimes, frame drum, and voice. Julie studied The Art of Creating Sound Healing Journeys With the Power of the 5 Elements, a 7-week course led by Bodhi Starwater/Setchko and Music Medicine, a 7-week course by Laura Inserra. She completed SHA’s 30-hour course in Integral Sound Healing with Tuning Forks in addition to John Beaulieu’s 4-week tuning fork course.
