If you are detoxing, it’s better to have a detox journal. That way, you can:

• record how you feel–both physically and emotionally
• write down all ideas about your hopes, your fears, your thoughts about the past, and your feelings about the present and he future

The journal can be a notebook or a even blog–if you’re ready to have others read it.

Nice writing!

Traditionally, yoga was taught one-on-one. If you have tried yoga by yourself and you like it, why don’t you take your own private yoga lessons so that you can get the most out of it?

With a private lesson you can:

• selectively choose and develop the yoga postures and breathing exercises that meet your specific needs
• get specific therapeutic benefits for injury, illness, stress and emotional difficulties
• decide the timing in between your tight schedule
