“A unique and very complete experience with a teacher that lives what she teaches! ”
NAMASTE!
My name is Anne-Lauren Graham. I love Yoga, Healing and Sharing what has inspired me in hopes to expand the inspiration and light in others. My intention as a yoga teacher is to provide a space that quiets the mind and rejuvenates the body. As we progress through practice, the goal of Yoga will be revealed. One will become more aware of peace and harmony in daily life. Practicing the connection of peace and harmony within our being, we shed the layers that have blocked or veiled our connection to the joy, light, and love that is our birthright. Moving from the heart, and not from the constant pushing and pulling of the mind, we become sensitive and feel that the energy that moves us is the same energy that moves every being in the universe.
Through Yoga you are offered an opportunity to experience the truth within. When there is stillness in the mind and conscious living from the heart, we are able to engage in a universal language. This language helps us to live with compassion as we blur the lines of separation in this world. Lets work together in creating a life of balance and deep connection through the amazing ancient healing tool of Yoga.
Yoga Retreats have proven to be the best place to ignite a path of truth healing and joyRetreats are a beautiful place to recharge yourself, and realign with the peace and light that is our true nature. My current passion is setting up a full week for you to unwind and release into the bliss that is your birthright. When you allow yourself this time to return to your clear self, union, yoga is experienced and you will be able to shine that light of deeper awareness and peace with everyone back home. Here is a testamonial from our last retreat:
''The mind and heart and body are powerful and often disconnected. With Anne-Lauren and the bliss of enjoying the RadiantSpiral Retreat, I was introduced to healing and powerful ways to connect with, embrace, and soften into all parts of myself. I was guided through breath, stillness, and poses that aroused and nurtured my life force. My mind released into a stabilizing calm as I felt the comfort and joy of a beautiful place, beautiful people and a beautiful daily practice! I came face to face with my own loving power, my own peace, and the support and strength of my own body. Thank you Anne-Lauren for your vision, heart, and introduction to the sublime tools of meditation and yoga as we all walk further down the path of bliss and self-love.'' ~ Amy Piepenbrink, CA
“There are many practices that enable us to get back to our roots. I enjoy the practices of Yoga, Reiki, Massage, and supporting children as they discover this amazing world. When we allow ourselves the space to return to our simple nature, like a child, the world is viewed from place of untainted truth and intuition. I believe that is what this world needs now; time to tune-in, feel your soul come alive and experience what our divine dharma (purpose) truly is.
In this life we have so much coming at our senses that sometimes it seems difficult to find the opportunity to just breathe and tune in to the heart. When we allow ourselves this time to simply be, we connect to our true nature, that essence light inside, that light that shines through our eyes. Even scientist are looking at this reality now, through quantum physics. This vibrating, illuminating light is from the same source. This source is God, divinity. When we hear the laugh of a child, when we witness a good deed, or a beautiful bird soaring in the sky; this is divinity, that ONE intrinsic spark that resides in every being. Every being on this earth has the power to feel it, to tune into the heart space, to act and move from there. It takes a bit of practice at first, then we are offered this gift that can never be taken away, the gift of simply sitting, tuning in and feeling into the contentment, delight, lessons, and joys in this human experience.
Sometimes, as we have all experienced, the mind creeps in and begins to do what it does best... creating feelings of separation or incompleteness. This is where the teachings of Yoga come to play and do what they do best... unify, yoke us back to the source, back to the enlightenment that is our birthright, our rock upon this spiraling path of conscious evolution. It is only a few breaths away. How truly grateful I am to be alive exploring and experiencing this life! I walk with greater reverence for the goddess that dwells within each of us, as US!
My intention is to offer a practice that opens your heart, and affirms for your Self that you are a part of something greater. The creative force of consciousness flows in you, all around you, and is you! The doorway has been opened, tools to experience union with your brilliant divine nature are waiting for you to explore!
As an act of gratitude for life, we can use this body that was given to us in service for the betterment of all beings. Whether it be to renounce your material possessions and become a world peace leader or to simply share a smile or create positive vibrations in your community through a holistic Yoga practice. It is important for our world to make a shift towards people abundant with the realization that they hold the key; The key that unlocks the door to living through the heart. There is no competition. There is no one to be except yourself! This is the shift we have been waiting for. Its up to you!
There is great strength to be obtained through giving yourself the opportunity to find your center and conduct life from the heart. Tuning in to this power gives vitality to your entire being and allows you to open to your highest potential, where any passion can be perceived!
Join me anytime, and we will work together on this journey to harmony, balance and bliss.
With Love and Gratitude for This Life! ”
