Desert Song Spotlight

What our community has to say about yoga and Desert Song

A black lab puppy, walking with my power walking group from the "Y" in CA for their 4 miles and ending the Labor Day weekend boogie boarding are three challenges that would not have been possible a year ago. Yoga at Desert Song has helped me overcome fear that I "just might hurt myself again." In each class whomever the teacher, compassion, understanding, foresight and honor to each person is demonstrated. Desert Song is unique in that monthly there is a theme and each class is presented with a reading or thought unique to that month's theme. The theme is always relevant to my life, which is the same as my classmates, in that we each take a portion of that reading home with us. One of the most important elements I have learned from Desert Song is to be happy with where I am today.

Yoga is the BEST medicine because it heals the body naturally. The physical poses (asanas) heal the body by naturally releasing the anxiety, tension and stress that gets stored in the muscles, joints and ligaments.

My personal practice has reduced my stress and, because of its many benefits, I have recommended yoga to patients and to friends.
