Dear First name / friend
 
I asked one of my clients to tell you what his experience has been working with me since May of 2022. Here is what he has to say:
 
“I had never heard of Yoga Therapy until I saw the sign on the window of Leslie’s studio. As a Parkinson’s patient I’ve been told that yoga is good for me, so I decided to stop in and see what it is all about. I am certainly glad I did. Leslie took the time to find out what my specific needs were and developed personalized programs to address them. I am consistently amazed at the amount of research she does to make sure that she is giving the best therapies possible, and how she updates my programs as I progress. Since I began working with Leslie, my posture and flexibility have noticeably improved to such a degree that others comment on it. In addition, I have far less stiffness and pain, and this has had a positive impact on my outlook as well. I’m so grateful that I stopped by her studio that day, and strongly recommend her work to everyone.”

I so appreciate David's willingness to share with you his commitment to his health, and am sharing so that you may understand more about what I do as a ‘partner’ in one's work.  
 
My blog is also available and gives you some information about my yoga journey – more about my ‘stop and start’ intro to yoga and the Certifications I've received.  
 
My public class schedule is available on my website, as well as on the Sage Yoga Studios site.  
 
And, I am available for individual work (Yoga Therapy or Yoga Instruction) at my officewhich, by the way, has moved. Same shopping center (by the Bonsall Post Office), and now next to the donut store. I think that will be a good thing! (The move and being next to the donut store.)
 

on my end table:
Understanding Yoga Therapy by Marlysa Sullivan. This jumped out at me last week (from my end table). I had started it, got distracted. So, am going back to it, starting over. Just to Chapter 3 so far. At this point, in the midst of her explanations of the texts that inform her Yoga Therapy and Physical Therapy practices.  
 
The Kitchen House by Kathleen Grissom. A quick read, with a well-researched view of the hierarchy of plantation slavery. Abrupt ending - would have liked to keep reading.  
 
for more light reading:
  1. Who loves the name of this easy meal: Chicken Dump Dinner? I'll have to substitute something for the brussels sprouts, tho – not everyone in our house enjoys them.
  2. Cup of Jo newsletter — lots of interesting and fun articles and links.
  3. Healthy snack anyone?
  4. And, learn more about me in my recent blog post.

Until next time,
Leslie

 
 
 

 
One of the signs of a truly advanced student is an interest in returning, over and over again, to the basics of Yoga practice. Like an accomplished musician returning to the task of producing one clear note, mature students never tire of refining the fundamentals
