Dear Friends
I just read this in the harvard medical journal and I thought I would share it with you.
Yoga is a great way to manage stress. Did you know that most American adults feel the effects of stress? Regular yoga practice can help you deal with stress and improve your overall well-being. Yoga has many scientifically proven benefits for the mind and body. It can reduce stress, boost your immune system, and help you feel less tired. Yoga can also improve your sleep and make you feel more energized. Even people recovering from medical illnesses like cancer can benefit from yoga. The key to getting the most out of yoga is to practice regularly and consistently.

Keep practicing. Namastream is a wonderful way to keep up your practice during these shorter days of light.
See you soon,
Alina

She is known for her ability to hone in on each individual student during her classes. Whatever your needs, she will modify poses for you, while keeping the rest of the class focused. The beauty of her way of teaching is that she uses props to support each individual student depending on their specific needs that day. She offers different levels of yoga classes to keep you as safe as possible in your yoga practice. Alina practices everyday and studies regularly with her teachers. From all the abuse of dancing at such a young age, she understands the healing process better than most. This experience has been her best teacher and has given her an appreciation for this amazing practice of yoga. Alina feels that we have so much stress and so many distractions in our lives right now, that it's nice to do a practice that allows your body mind and spirit to be supported strengthened and balanced.
