May's Monthly Yoga Pose: Tree Pose

This months yoga pose is the tree pose!

Getting into Tree Pose:
Stand in Tadasana or mountain pose with your toes and ankles touching, your pelvis perpendicular to the floor and your shoulders relaxed and open. The arms are by your side. Ground through your left foot, especially focusing on the big toes joint and then lift your right leg folding at the knee. Place the sole of the right foot up against the upper left inner thigh with the toes pointing downwards and the folded leg perpendicular to the standing leg. Make sure your hips are even- avoid the temptation to sink into the hip of the standing leg. Once you have established your balance, fold the hands in front of your chest in a prayer position. Keep your balance and stretch the arms above your head with your gaze forward. Once you are more comfortable in this pose you can begin to play with curling the chest back and looking up. Keep the balance and hold for as long as possible. Repeat with the left leg.
Health Benefits of Tree Pose

• Improves balance and stability in the legs
• On a metaphysical level, helps one to achieve balance in other aspects of life
• Strengthens the ligaments and tendon of the feet
• Strengthens and tones the entire standing leg, up to the buttocks
• Assists the body in establishing pelvic stability
• Strengthen the bones of the hips and legs due to the weight-bearing nature of the pose
• Builds self-confidence and esteem

"Dr. Sade" has been in wholistic health as long as she could remember. She reminisces to when her great grandmother would have her picking dandelion greens and poke root in the back yard to cook and eat, unknowing then of the medicinal properties. She started acquiring her formal knowledge about12 years ago while working at a small neighborhood health food store. Dr. Sade was forced to get an understanding of foods and supplements because the inquisitive customers wanted products and answers, so she had to get it. In seeking information for others, she digested what she learned and applied it to her own health. She struggled with weight and other health issues, but was determined to turn her life around. When she did so, others asked for her advice, which she happily shared. She converted into vegetarianism 10 years ago and veganism 2 years ago. She has extensive spiritual healing experience, is a 2nd Degree Reiki Practitioner, is a Certified Holistic Health Counselor & registered Naturopath, and has training in HIV/AIDS awareness.

Yuma "Dr. Yew" Bellomee was raised between Bronx and Mount Vernon, New York. It has always been said, by family and community members alike, that he possesses "an old soul", referring to his seemingly wise and precocious ways as a child. Brought up in ethnically cultural surroundings, Yuma found his first calling in the form of music, when he gravitated towards the West African djembe drum at the age of 9 months. Along with music and culture, he also realized the importance of wellness at an early age. With natural intuition, he would often take on the responsibility of trying to awaken health consciousness within family members, or to motivate them to make better lifestyle choices. Therefore, it was nothing but a natural fit when his father introduced him to the master traditional healers of the community, who would turn out to further mold him into his purpose. In addition to feeding him their guidance and knowledge of medicinal herbs, foods, nutrition, etc., they also inspired him to learn independently and apply his information and experience to help the mental, physical, and spiritual state of himself, his family, and his community, to which he is dedicated. To accomplish this task, he combines a variety of traditional healing modalities with current information, logic, divine inspiration, and love. Yuma is now certified as a Holistic Health Consultant through the International Board of African Thinkers, Traditional Priests, Priestesses, and Religion, Inc., and was also registered as a Naturopath through the Health Professional Licensing Administration of Washington, D.C. in 2009.

April's Yoga Pose: Child Pose

Benefits of Child's Pose

Performing Child's Pose has many great benefits to the body and mind. Your head is lower then your heart, therefore you receive more circulation in the face. It works on muscle groups within the body and can be a natural therapy for relieving stress, anxiety, fatigue and depression.

Child's Pose strengthens and tones the hips, thighs and ankles. These muscles get a nice stretch. The longer you hold the pose the better the effect. The spine is also lengthened when you drop the hips down to your heels and relax your head and arms forward on the floor. It's a great pose for those with any back or neck pain. It's also a great choice for pregnant women during the first trimester.

This calming pose relaxes the brain, and helps to clear the mind of any negative thought. It helps you to focus and is a good aid for those who suffer from panic attacks.

It's important to breathe deeply into the pose, inhaling positive thoughts and exhaling all the tension throughout the body. Every breath should calm our minds and ease any stress or negativity. You can hold this pose for 10 breathes.

Steps for Child's Pose

1. Knees are at least hip width apart.
2. Rest your front ribs on the tops of your thighs.
3. Forehead is on the floor. Heels are apart, big toes touching.
4. Arms can be down by the feet (palms facing up), or arms can be extended forward. (palms facing down).
5. Press hands and feel your sitting bones on the mat.
6. Hold this pose for about 10 deep breathes.
