"Yoga & Prostate Health"

with
Laura Natale

This interactive Yoga session conducted by Laura and her associate Sandeep was attended
to by around 45 members, wives and guests. Laura shared her own journey and how through
Yoga she had regained her own health in areas where main-stream medicine had failed her.

Laura went on to explaining the health benefits of the different Yoga positions while
her associate Sandeep demonstrated the particular posture.

The degree of flexibility and control demonstrated and the astonishing grace with which
these complex moves were performed, as visible in the picture sequence,
shows what can be achieved through Yoga.

[Note : Pictures shown above display highly advanced positions. These are not
be attempted by the beginner without guidance of an qualified Yoga teacher]

Following the demonstration Laura and Sandeep jointly conducted some simple yoga
exercises where all the members could participate.

The session concluded with a Guided Relaxation Visualization using a soft and soothing music.
The de-stressing and the 'good- feelings' resulting from the session were felt and appreciated by all.

Handouts showing various Yoga poses were distributed to those interested.

This Yoga session was originally to have been conducted by Arlene Dalton but
she couldn't make it due to a personal situation. Laura Natale from the Yoga Loft and a
colleague Kelly, a Naturopath, gracefully accepted to take Arelene's place at her request.

As it turned out, further developments led to the Yoga session with Laura and Sandeep
covering the whole evening. The good news is that Laura has subsequently offered us a
few alternative natural health topics for our future meetings. In addition she has put
together a Beginner'sYoga class specially for Us Too! Brampton members.
