TUESDAY MORNINGS, JANUARY 22, FEBRUARY 19 AND MARCH 18 from 10AM-11AM:

  <http://www.thegreenbough.com/images/MovementRosen.jpg> 

FREE YOUR INNER DANCER with ROSEN METHOD MOVEMENT 

Peace-Presence-Relaxation 

The Rosen Method of Movement, new to the Pittsburgh area and exclusive to
The Green Bough, is about turning our attention inside, bringing our
awareness to the inner body as we move to music. Developed by Marion Rosen,
these easy, unhurried movements are designed to improve alignment and
flexibility, increase range of motion, ease of breathing, and deepen
awareness of the body. 

These movements "touch" our layers of holdings, releasing them, allowing us
to access our core self, our source of joy and play, addressing: the full
range of motion for major joints; the lengthening of all muscles; the
expansion of the chest & rib cage; and the experience of relaxation in
movement from the inside out. 

Testimonial from Rob: "I went into the class feeling the pressures of a busy
day and came out with an inner peace and a feeling of living in the moment.
It was like taking the best anti-anxiety medication." 

No prior dance or fitness experience is necessary. Wear comfortable clothing
and come prepared to relax and have some fun. The cost of each class is only
$10.

 Oneness  <http://www.thegreenbough.com/meditation.htm#OnenessDeeksha>
Blessing Deeksha Gathering!

Join the Oneness University Facilitators, Sri Mohana, Sri A.T., Sri
Nicholas, as they help you access deep states of consciousness through the
Oneness Blessing (Deeksha). 

The Oneness Blessing process works by creating a neurobiological shift in
the brain and awakening the energy centers (Chakras) in the body. Once
initiated, it is a gradual Awakening process that leads you naturally to a
lasting state of Oneness, inner peace, and wellbeing and connection with the
Higher Self. The process helps to set right relationships with self and
others. 

The new Deeksha dates for 2008 have been posted on the website:  Check
