Bridging the Gap Between Where You Are and Where You Want to Be

To get the things you want, action must follow desire.  To embark on a journey and transform your life, you must deviate your attention from the past and begin focusing on the present. In this blog post, we provide some simple suggestions that will assist you as you evaluate the change you’re desiring in your personal life and then develop a plan of action to bridge the gap between where you are and where you desire to be.

Warrior I and Warrior II

In this instructional video, Angela, Yoga 4 Change’s Program Director, demonstrates two postures, Warrior (Virabhadrasana (veer-ah-bah-DRAHS-anna)) I and II.  Both of these postures can be practiced either on their own or integrated into a practice that combines the postures and exercises that were demonstrated in our previous videos.  Feel free to mix and match to create your own sequence.

Yoga 4 Change Takes Wellness from the Studio to the Classroom

For children vulnerable to poorer health and diminished achievement because of poverty, unsafe homes, and inadequate adult guidance or supervision, Yoga 4 Change represents an opportunity to find inner strength. Our programming gives students the tools to master their breathing, calm mind and body, and shift focus away from the other stressors in their lives. 

Variations of Chair and Crescent Lunge

In this instructional video, Angela, Yoga 4 Change’s Program Director, demonstrates Chair (Utkatasana) and Crescent Lunge (Anjaneyasana). These poses create flexible strength. They promote stability in your legs and torso while also toning your lower body. Additionally, these poses can stretch your chest, lungs, shoulders, arm, neck, and back.
