Testimonials 

Here’s what 3 graduates want you to know…Yoga Alliance E-RYT-500
 

♥ I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for the most wonderful weekend of downtime, stress relief, and improve-my-quality-of-life time! You have a way of bringing everyone together, making us feel not only welcome, but special.  You have a most awesome positive energy and although you could have a big head with all your successes, you leave your ego at the door and show true concern toward everyone. – Kathleen

♥ I’m grateful for the chance to step out and do this.  This is the first time that I have been able to be still and quiet enough to really consider what the future could look like – an exciting prospect. – Sarah

♥ I am grateful beyond words.  This program will have a positive and lasting effect on my life!  – Les

♥ When I was able (and strong & brave & loving enough) to step away from my stormy life for this program, I noticed I still have so much love & calm & HOPE & strength.  It was just smothered like a perfect, precious gem under a pile of dirty clothes.  It was so hard to see it but it was and always will be there no matter what.  Knowing the jewel is there, under the heap, is so exciting because that keeps the hop. –  Anne

♥  I broke through major barriers in this program.  The people were inspirational.  I gained a part of my broken soul.  It’s OK not to be perfect.  I am enough, just as I am.  – Vickie

Bhramara Mudra for Allergy Relief

October 11, 2010 by Julie Lusk

Yoga Mudras are gestures for the hands and body that aid healing for the body, mind, emotions and spirit.  Using hand positions in this manner can be found in Yoga, Buddhist, Chinese, and other traditions.

Bhramara Mudra is one to practice to relieve allergies and related conditions.  The immune system can benefit.

  • Place your index finger at the base of your thumb.
  • Touch the tip of your thumb beside the fingernail of the middle finger
  • Extend your ring and little fingers
  • Focus your attention and breathe as deeply, slowly and smoothly as possible
  • Hold for several minutes and practice often

Even though I had my doubts, this yoga mudra has helped me a lot.  I use it during allergy attacks and as a preventative during allergy season.  For example, I will hold this yoga mudra with one or both of my hands while waiting, walking or sitting.

I’ve shared this with others and have been told that it stopped a sneezing fit, solved an allergy attack when out walking, and cleared up a runny nose from allergies.  Really!

Don’t forget to use common sense too.   Help yourself by doing what you can to boost your immune system and avoid what triggers your allergies (pollen, animal dander, dust, food triggers, etc.)

Hear what Sandi had to say about the Bhramara Mudra for allergy relief and what she said about coming to my Transforming Stress into Awakened Living workshop in this minute-long video.

Please try it for yourself and then post your results!

Visit often since there are lots more yoga mudras to share with you for things like feeling more stable, calm, energized and uplifted.

Post a comment to let me know the ones you’re most interested in and I’ll do my best.  Better yet, come to a yoga class and/or to the next yoga slumber party to learn more in person.  Here’s the schedule for your convenience.

Ethical Matters for Yoga Nidra Professional Training Course

Ethical Matters for Yoga Nidra Professional Training Course taught by Julie Lusk

 

  • On successful completion, identify yourself as a Yoga Nidra Certified Teacher, Level 1 (or 2) not as a therapist unless licensed to do so. Level 1 certification qualifies you to provide yoga nidra for overall health and stress relief in group/private settings. Level 2 certified teachers can provide yoga nidra in synch with the objectives of the training.
  • Yoga nidra is not a replacement or treatment for proper medical care. It can be used to reduce symptoms, side effects, and help with one’s ability to cope with stress and other issues. Do not guarantee results. Do not diagnose or describe yoga nidra as therapeutic. Only those specifically trained and licensed to provide therapeutics can do so. Board approval may be required in accordance with one’s profession. Make appropriate referrals to professionals as needed.
  • Stay within your scope of practice. Do not work in areas you are not equipped, trained, or licensed to handle. For example, for physical, mental, or emotional conditions, specific suggestions for immune system, past life, inner child, trauma (PTS), etc. You are not permitted to train others to provide yoga nidra.
  • Do not copy, sell, or distribute the scripts (with or without payment) without the publisher’s written permission. This includes electronically (audio/download/video, etc.) or in written form on paper or otherwise. If individuals wish to utilize scripts, refer them to relevant books, etc. Many scripts are professionally available on audio.
  • You may copy and distribute handouts from the training with proper credit given.
  • Scripts can be used in classes and with clients. You may record the scripts for your personal, noncommercial use. Always credit your sources fully and accurately with appropriate names and references.
  • Maintain confidentiality. Provide accessibility, inclusion, and fairness. Be accountable and accurate. Practice quality business practices. Observe all applicable state or other local jurisdiction laws related to providing services.
  • Always put the healing and growth of others first. Provide a safe environment. Do not, overtly or covertly, force people to participate in anything that may be uncomfortable for them. Emphasize that participants are in full control. Advise they can change or stop the Yoga Nidra process, open their eyes, and stretch anytime to return to their alert rational conscious mind at any time. Give permission to change anything that seems threatening to something that feels right or make use of an inner resource or personal sanctuary. In another vein, clients may want to explore what feels uncomfortable to them in the safety of the experience.
  • Be certain that participants are fully awake and alert after a Yoga Nidra session and before going about their activities. Have them do some stretches and engage their senses afterwards, otherwise, it could lead to danger. For example, there are stories of people having trouble driving afterwards. One person went right through a stop sign after class. Others have gotten lost on their way home. Another was pulled over for driving too slowly.
  • Advise participants that it is not safe to practice meditation or visualization while driving or operating machinery.
  • Maintain professional boundaries. Avoid any relationships that could exploit the trust of clients/students. Obtain prior consent to use ethical touch, as appropriate. Avoid dual relationships and favoritism. Avoid romantic, intimate, or sexual relationships with teachers, students, clients, and trainees.
  • Remember and utilize the Yamas and Niyamas, the social and personal tenets of Yoga. The Yamas are Ahimsa – reverence for all life; Satya – truthfulness; Asteya – integrity; Brahmacarya – moderation; and Aparigraha – nonattachment, lack of self-indulgence. The Niyamas are Shauca – purity and cleanliness; Santosha – contentment; Tapas – -discipline; Svadhyaya – Self-understanding; and Ishvara-Pranidhana – devotion to the divine. “Your will, not mine.” Refer to Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras for clarification.

 

I understand and agree to provide yoga nidra honestly, ethically and with integrity. ____Yes _____ No
