Resistance, Restraint, & Recognition

April 30, 2007 · 1 Comment


Saturn is currently squaring my natal Sun.  Ugh.  It feels like being trapped within concrete walls with only a small little penknife to chip my way out.  I suppose there is a postive side to this transit, there always is a good side.  However, today I just feel stuck.

Saturn

Just before the transit came to exactitude I spent a week at Kripalu Center attending the Symposium on Yoga Therapy.  It was wonderful to be with a community of yoga professionals who are focused on using these ancient practices towards health & wellness.  There are some really good things happening out there! I learned a lot.  And, I also realized how much I already know…………..it’s always good to be validated!

Yoga Therapy is definitely an up and coming modality that is beginning to receive recognition from the medical establishment.  In my own practice a few of my clients are getting reimbursed by their insurance companies for their sessions with me.  And, their doctors are writing prescriptions for Yoga Therapy!

What sets my practice apart from most of the other yoga therapists is the use of astrology in my analysis.  Looking at a clients natal chart along with current transits & progressions can provide a lot of information that you wouldn’t find anywhere else.  As soon as this concrete wall crumbles I hope to complete some of the articles on this and post them here or on my website.  But until then……….I’ll continue to practice procrastination!

A Milestone?

mile markerOne of the neat things that you can do with a blog is check your statistics. The site I’m on keeps all the numbers for me. As of today I have had over 2000 people view this site. Wow. I’m not sure I know 2000 people! I’ve made 39 posts since starting in Feb. 07 and the top post on my site has been Man’s First Breath.  I’m not sure if any of this is important in the grander scheme of things but it certainly amuses me and brings home the power of the internet to share information.
