The Yoga of Writing Consultations

 

Want to transform your writing practice into an exercise of spiritual renewal? What if you had a personal practice that relieved tension and enhanced concentration? That helped clear the mind and relax the body so that words flowed effortlessly?

If your writing practice doesn’t currently begin, end, or include a break for physical and mental reintegration, consider developing a personalized Yoga of Writing practice. In these consultations, Monique addresses writer’s block by working with you to develop an optimal level of mental, physical and spiritual fitness. We consider such things as age, health, strength, flexibility, congenital issues, diet, physical imbalances, chronic disease, injuries, stress levels, writing goals, mental distractions, and spiritual orientation in order to customize a Yoga of Writing practice that works for you.

While each person’s practice is unique to their orientation and goals, a Yoga of Writing practice might include: laugh therapy, sounding, myofascial self-release, pranayama (breathing exercises), Vedic chanting, gesture, mantra japa (repeating sacred words or sounds), contemplative prayer, meditation, asana (physical exercises), walking meditation, candle gazing, sentence prompting, and warm-up meditative journaling.

In-person 1 hour: $125; In-person 1.5 hour: $175

By phone/mail: $195, Includes:

  • Thirty minute phone consultation to discuss your particular needs with respect to physical, emotional, psychological, creative, and spiritual reintegration
  • Evaluation of your answers to The Yoga of Writing Pre-consultation Survey

Yoga Therapy Consultations

 

Writers can not ignore their physical health. Are you a writer who is an experienced yoga practitioner who wants to deepen her practice or address an injury through yoga therapy? Perhaps you are a writer with little or no prior yoga experience, but wants to relieve low back pain or tension related to the neck and shoulders. Or, maybe you have a specific complaint, such as a muscle-bound body, digestive problems, PMS, headaches, scoliosis, chronic anxiety, tight joints, difficulty breathing, insomnia, a thyroid condition, or emotional imbalance. Through the time-tested, ancient discipline of yoga therapy, we adapt classical asanas or exercises to address your specific conditions and goals.

In these private yoga therapy consultations, Monique works with you to develop a comprehensive sequence of exercises that will equally develop strength, flexibility, structural alignment, proper functioning of internal systems, and mental steadiness.

These sessions are tailored to your specific needs, utilizing components of classical yoga such as asana (therapeutic stretching,) prayer, meditation, sounding, gesture, Vedic chanting, laugh therapy, humming, pranayama (breathing exercises), mantra japa (repeating sacred words or sounds), and contemplative prayer.
