Yoga Nidra - Online information and guided meditation session

This 2 hour online workshop and guided meditation session in 'real' time ñ September 8th, at 10:00 am EST, introduces Yoga Nidra and its use for opening the potential of the mind - a step by step guide to living your authentic life and living the secret.

The workshop will discuss the mechanics and dynamics of breathing and its application for stress reduction; the use of positive affirmations or intention and resolve to generally improve one's lifestyle and to affect a remodelling of one's life.

Yoga Nidra has been found to assist in the removal of symptoms associated with insomnia, increase memory function and enhance creative abilities.

Today's woman--juggling multiple roles, coping with a
sinking economy, family and career commitments--the
idea of relaxing may seem as difficult as achieving world peace. Add in the
additional stress many women experience of worrying
about their children, emotional and physical health,
and the effect is like adding another 50 pounds to the
constant weight of fear, worry and anxiety most
women already carry.

We provide understanding, care, and the tools for you
to break free from debilitating societal and cultural
beliefs. Through an individualized plan that includes
Guided Imagery, Essential Oils, Relaxation, and
traditional "Talk Therapy", each woman can rise, thrive, and live according to her own definition of "Woman".

Do I believe in what I'm doing? Can I look at my choices in a new light? How can I think about my life more profoundly? Should I take this job? Am I in a sound relationship? What is my responsibility to the care of my parents?

For many, these are deep philosophical questions ñ questions that require careful and probing treatment. Philosophical counseling offers a way of approaching the profound aspects of lifeís questions with seriousness and respect. A powerful alternative to feeling based practices, philosophical counseling emphasizes critical thinking techniques, conceptual analysis and rational investigation of oneís fundamental assumptions and beliefs.

Lauren Tillinghast Ph.D. is a certified Philosophical Counselor with more than ten years of experience in philosophical practice. She offers philosophical consultation in office, through teleconferencing and telephone, and teaches ëEssential Questions: Philosophical Excursions into Real Lifeí a life-long learning course at NYU.
