Peace Within Brings Peace Without

When I was young, growing up on an apple orchard in Eastern Washington, winter was a special time for us and there was usually lots of snow. I can remember just standing outside, all bundled up, deep in the snow, just listening. No one was working in their orchards....

Steady, Focused, and Tranquil

Steady, Focused, and Tranquil

We all want a mind that is steady, focused and tranquil. Unfortunately, obstacles are often in the way of achieving this. Our state of mind is different everyday since it reflects the way we feel physically, mentally and emotionally. Sometimes this can lead to a...

Have you ever had a gut feeling or intuition about something? You are trying to make a decision but you aren’t sure which way to go. Something deeper is trying to guide you. Are you listening? Do you take the time to reflect and not just react? In Yoga we call that...

What Is Yoga?

Why Is Yoga Good For Us?

Many national and international studies have shown that yoga can improve our health and well-being. Yoga increases flexibility and improves posture and balance. It reduces stress by lowering stress hormones and increasing circulation to our organs with focused breathing. Yoga strengthens our muscles and bones. It can help to relieve pain in some conditions by increasing blood flow. Yoga improves brain function by integrating the right and left sides of your brain through movement.

“I’m 80 now and I catch colds easily. If I am in a small space and someone coughs then I catch it. When I heard you were going virtual I was so happy to know I could come back to Yoga classes at SoundYoga. You have created a very special space. The teachers… the students… and the environment…  I always feel so relaxed after class and less stressed. Flexibility and strength that I lost are returning.

I do some conscious breathing and my mind relaxes.  Thank goodness for virtual and in person Sound Yoga!!!”

“I arrive at class knowing that Chris has a plan for us that day…which she attends to diligently. This allows me to focus on my poses and movement and not wonder “what’s next?’. Her voice is crystal clear. Her check-ins, meditations and chants make class a full body/mind/spirit work-out. My practice at Sound Yoga is a very important part of my life thanks to Chris.”

“Yoga, what a scary notion for a 72 year old man to contemplate. I pretty much always considered yoga to be too woo woo for me. But given my aging body, stiff joints, increasingly poor balance I knew I had to do something.

My wife introduced me to Chris and her studio in West Seattle. A couple of things about Chris and her mode – no bs and no jargon. Very welcoming. I now take two classes a week. One of which is a combination of yoga and weight training. Very rigorous and I’m the only guy in the class.

I must say my flexibility, strength and balance have all improved. The bottom line, my golf swing and score are noticeably improved. Works for me.”
