Meditation by Yogi Desai and Some Great News!

Love requires continuos practice, and the best place to begin practicing is on yourself. When you acquire the art of loving yourself, you naturally love others as well. Many people beat themselves up psychologically day and night. They use the weapons of tension, anxiety,guilt, and fear. Such self hatred does not allow you to love others. If you are in love with yourself, you hate no one.

-Yogi Amrit Desai

Smart Feet

No need to wax eloquent regarding the importance of our feet, after all, fat or thin, tiny or tall, our feet have to carry us all.  While our feet are beneath us all, they surely deserve more attention and care than we are used to giving them.  Women have always suffered the most from the concept that tiny feet were the ideal. While not quite as harmful as the Chinese custom of foot binding, which permanently crippled countless well-bred girls, modern footwear like stilettos and pointy toes are hardly foot friendly.  Shoes that remain from thirteenth and fourteenth century European Royalty show that the western world is not entirely innocent of idealizing small feet as well.

 StraightenUp will teach you how to use your feet.  Worth looking at!!

Wednesday, November 28th is the day.

StraightenUP is on Amazon.com

Get your copy of my book by going to links on this website or go to Amazon.com. You will be glad you did when you see what a difference it will make in your posture and the way that you feel, and look.

With the catastrophe, Sandy that we are experiencing, all we can do is look within, get the energy reserve we have when we try to keep a positive attitude and stay present.  One day at a time. So beautiful to see how people come together and assist each other. Looking forward we will see a lot of booming in the construction, building and automobile business. A good thing from something very bad.  I keep on looking to see what I can see through this event, and each day I see something else. Try it, it helps!      Namaste, Lorie

What is StraightenUP all about?

Poor posture is of epidemic proportion. Everyone wants to have good posture! We just don’t know how to get it. StraightenUP is the answer. When your body is aligned with the force of gravity and your muscles can support this alignment you will have good posture.

StraightenUP is not an exercise, it is a system of functional movements that teach the body HOW TO MOVE, moment to moment, in your daily life. You are exercising whenever you make a movement, even sitting and standing. StraightenUP will improve your overall state of health, appearance, confidence
level, and your sexuality. It will improve tennis, golf and any sport or activity.

At the end of the book there is a nine week program. With or without practicing it you will gain new consciousness, feel better with less aches and pains, and more time to spare. StraightenUP is inspiring, entertaining and very informative in a loving, compassionate way

Blessings, Lorie.
