BEGINNERS MEDITATION I SERIES
Of all human activities, meditation is one of the most natural and rewarding. It is the cornerstone of true spirituality. The benefits our bodies and minds receive from meditation have been established by medical research. (www.berkeleypsychicinstitute.com, www.aesclepionhealingcenter.com). It creates wellness, balance, and serenity.

The Meditation I series is your foundation to inner peace. The tools you will learn during this six week course will not only help you to establish a daily meditation practice, but these tools will help you live a more composed and fulfilled life. What you will learn here can be practiced in all of your affairs. Grounding and releasing energy can create a healthier home life, work environment, and an enhanced yoga practice.

Testimonial
The Meditation I classes gave me the tools I needed to incorporate a daily meditation practice into my life. Until I participated in this workshop, I was having difficulty focusing and calming my mind down. Now, not only do I find meaningful inner peace during my morning meditations, but I utilize the techniques to help maintain a calm, clear mind in the midst of the busy-ness of the day. Thank you, Shelly, for your guidance. Meditation is both peaceful and energizing. I love the balance it brings to my life. - Wendy 41

Testimonial
The Meditation I and II series has done more for me than just enlighten my meditation practice. I now own my own intuition and I’am more confident in my decision making. My personal boundaries are more grounded and I have the tools to neutralize myself in the face of stressful situations. —Tara 29

I live in London and also have a home in Daytona Beach. Life's journey has brought me many blessings, with many years looking for light or some guidance. Eighteen months ago, my path led me to the Hot House Yoga Studio. It is here that I began to realize the benefits of pure concentration in exercise, which in turn leads to a sense of well-being. I had done tons of aerobic activity from hard core step and spin classes (often back to back) in New York City for years, and never liked yoga. But my experience at Hot House was different. The yoga and meditation classes I attended created immediate results and created a new stillness in my mind. I realized, once I met Shelly, that my journey discovering the potential of my body, and struggle with low self esteem was about to change forever. Thank you, Shelly, for offering these gifts of discovery to me - through tools and experiences both inside and outside. I am now finding a true balance in physical and spiritual well being. I am grateful to say the least. - Will 39

HEALING I SERIES (Now taking signup's for our next series starting in June)
The work begins with meditation, which leads into uncovering your own "healing" abilities and then moves into the ability to "read" with the Meditation III Series.

Feel exhausted for no reason? Have moments in which it appears humanity has gone insane? Come invest one day a week for five weeks, 125 dollars and it just might change your view, not only of the world around you, but of yourself. At the center of this series of classes is the old adage, 'healer, heal thy se lf..." No you are not sitting listening but up working on your fellow student, discovering that healing is something you are probably doing much of your day.

This is a hands on class we will not be doing asana's(yoga poses), wear comfortable clothing, bring your journal, and an open mind.

WOMENS INTUITION
(Now taking signup's for our next series starting in Oct)
It turns out hair color is not a determining factor for having fun - having your space is.

Whether your hair is blond, brown, gray or magenta, this series of six workshops takes you through exercises and healing's to clear your space of apathy, family limits, and other energies that may make you stressed and 'uptight' (NOT FUN). To replace these energies the workshops teach you tools which you can then use to create more space to use your enthusiasm and creative energy for your goals, i.e. to have FUN.

This is a seated meditation we will not be doing asana's(yoga poses), please bring a cushion for your chair, wear comfortable clothing, bring your journal and an open mind.

40 DAYS TO PERSONAL REVOLUTION
(Weekly Meetings Saturdays at 6pm, unless otherwise stated)
The program runs for just under a 6-week period starting on a Monday and finishing on a Friday night. We'll wrap up the program with fiery festivities. The 40 Day Personal Revolution Program ("40-Days") is progressive. It is intensive with each week going deeper into areas of our lives and giving us many opportunities for growth and personal transformation. There are three areas that the program will cover- although you may find that many other areas of your life are brought into the spotlight.

The three main areas we will experience are: 1) Going deep into your power yoga practice; 2) Experiencing the commitment to a daily meditation practice; and 3) Awareness and creation of a nutritional diet that suits your body.

Instructors at Hot House Yoga will be completing the 40-Days Program with you and will lead our group discussion held on Sunday afternoons. These discussions are a mandatory part of the program, whether you attend and share your experiences or just simply listen to the experiences of others. The meetings are the heart and soul of the program, enabling teachers and students to uplift each other and promote change.

Each day you complete your meditations, studio or home practice and mark it on the board in the studio using the following symbols. The basic requirements of the course are:

1. Studio Practice (SP) - Each week you will be asked to complete five Hot House Yoga Studio Practices. Practice at times that suit you. This also includes any of the hour long practices. After completing a Hot House Yoga studio practice you write the letters SP in the top diagonal of the day it refers to.
2. Home Practice (HP) - Each week you will be asked to complete one home practice either following the practice set out in the book or creatively designing your own flow at home. The next day you come into the studio after completing a home practice you write the letters HP in the top diagonal for the day it refers to.
3. Rest Day ( R ) - Simply mark your favorite symbol on the board on your next day in the studio.
4. Meditations ( M ) - Each day you will be asked to complete two meditations. For each day you complete a meditation, you write M1 or M2 for how many meditations you completed on the day it corresponds to. Each weekly meditation is given in the text for you to follow.
5. Diet - You will use Baron’s book, "40 Days To Personal Revolution," as a guide to designing a whole food diet suitable for your own personal needs. In week 4, we complete a 3-day fruit fast to cleanse the body as a gentle detox. This is not just a physical cleanse. You will notice a great shift in your mental perception of the quantity of food your body requires. During the fasting period you may take a home practice and day off or practice lighter in class to conserve energy. You are not required to mark on the board if you have followed your diet.
6. Journaling- You are asked to keep your own journal during the 40-Days and answer questions in the book at the end of each week. These questions are to remain private unless you wish to share them and are simply thought starters for great introspection.

Each week our instructors are available to talk about your experience and offer guidance if sought. There is also an abundance of friends who are very supportive and enjoy the opportunity to share the challenges and triumphs you will experience.

We ask that you are honest about your progression. This challenge is very difficult and not everyone will be able to complete all requirements. The most important thing is that you show up and give it a go. Should you miss a practice or don’t have time for a meditation, we ask that you don’t give up but rather continue the 40-Days with the acceptance of yourself and the openness to get out of it what ever needs to travel your way.

EAT 4 YOUR BLOOD TYPE (Check back for our next discussion)
This is the indispensable handbook that lays the foundation for each of the four blood types, including clear, simple plans for each type.
From the book jacket: "If you've ever suspected that not everyone should eat the same thing or do the same exercise, you're right. Your blood type reflects your internal chemistry. It actually determines the way you absorb nutrients. What foods you absorb well and how your body handles stress differ with each blood type. Eat Right 4 Your Type will help you design a total health program that's right for your blood type."

3 out of 4
Appear to be the odds that your health will improve by following the right diet for your blood type. The facts are clear cut: In the 6617 individuals who reported their results from following the Blood Type Diet for a period of one month or more, three out of four (71-78%) had significant improvement in a variety of health conditions. Weight loss was the effect most often observed but a number of reports detailed improvements in digestive function, resistance to stress, overall energy and mental clarity.

The percentages (71-78%) of visitors reporting positive results are consistent across all the blood types. Type O (following a higher protein lower-carb diet) appeared as likely to report positive results as Type A (following a lower fat, plant-based diet) or types B and AB (following a more omnivorous diet.)

Currently Teachers and yoga students are eating 4 their blood type if you are interested in more info review the links that follow The Official Blood Type Diet, Right For Your Type or give us a call 676-0572 you can purchase a book at the studio or at loves wholes foods. Check back with us for monthly discussions on recipes, favorite foods the best green teas, local discounts and more.

3-DAY INTENSIVE FRUIT FAST (the first sunday of each month)
Throughout history , people have fasted for different reasons. Some fasted for religious reasons, others, such as Gandhi, out of political protest, and some because they knew it was intrinsically good for them. We do a 3 day fruit fast once a month because active cleansing or fasting is a way to allow your body to fully empty out and get clean, giving your metabolic organs a chance to rest and renew themselves.

We recommend doing a three-day cleanse at the beginning of the month. From the morning of the first day, eat meals that contain only fruit. It is best to use fresh fruit, but you can also have fruit juices and fruit soups, such as tomato soup, as long as they are natural and additive- free.

As often as you can, take the time to prepare full meals, rather than just grabbing pieces of fruit on the run, have fun with it so you feel fulfilled and not deprived make smoothies, fruit relish, fruit salad. Eat small amounts of fruit all day long to keep your blood sugar level, drink plenty of water, and herbal tea. Enjoy
