Trevor Throop Yoga - February '12 Newsletter

In This Issue:

It is ironic that as I sit here to write this month's newsletter I feel like I am completely lacking in inspiration. The irony is in the fact that I have decided that the theme of the newsletter is inspiration. I ask myself . . . What does it mean to be inspired? Is it that sudden A-HA moment where like a flash of light we find clarity out of darkness? Is it in the relationships we have with loved ones who help keep us strong and fulfilled every day? Is it in the simplest movement of life, the inhale, which also is called inspiration? It is in all of the above. Inspiration can be love or clarity, it can come out of darkness or out of nothing. Inspiration can bring about great deeds, or beautiful art. I believe we all can be inspired, and we all are inspiring. It all starts in that simple breath, and moves through our perception like wildfire. I am inspired by many things. I am inspired by my students every day, and I hope that all of you can at some point feel inspired as well.

Hey, would you look at that, lack of inspiration was inspiring afterall!!

Namaste

Inspired by Losers

Inspiration can come from anywhere. The world around us, our loved ones, a photograph, a movie. We can even get inspiration from within. I am inspired by many things. One of which is, I must admit, a reality TV show. Not just any reality show, but "The Biggest Loser." Whatever you believe about reality TV shows, and editing, and participants being coached what to say, the final product, and the fact that people are changing their lives is inspiring to me. Check out my blog entry Inspired by Losers where I talk about how watching "The Biggest Loser" inspires me.

Upcoming Events

I have a few other events tentatively scheduled for 2012, and a few more on the way. Here is a list of what I am planning. Keep your eyes peeled, and I hope to see you in some of these workshops and events.


Yoga Therapy Workshop: Stress - Tentatively Scheduled for Sunday April 29th at The Jade Apple, I will be teaching about the stress response, how it affects our physiology and how Yoga can counteract its affects.

Yoga Day 2012 - Last year I hosted a day long Yoga retreat at my home. It was such a big success I am excited to bring it back this year! I'm tentatively thinking Saturday June 23rd in honor of the Summer Solstice. Click Here for pictures of last year's event.

Wellspring Physical Therapy - I am in the process of talking to Wellspring Physical Therapy in Glendale about starting a Therapeutic Yoga class/workshop series with them. Stay tuned for more info on this exciting opportunity.

If you would like me to come teach a workshop to you at your work, home, or community let me know and I can definitely work those out too. E-mail me for more information.
