SUMMARY:Intro to Yoga - anyone\, anyone?
DESCRIPTION:Law of Attraction Meetups > Positive Focus - Living Life Fulfil
 led\n\nHave you wanted to try a yoga class\, but didn't want to go alone? O
 r are you finding it hard to motivate yourself to go? \n\n10/5/08 - If you'
 ve never been to Moksha before\, RSVP by Monday 5PM and come with me to get
  your first yoga class free!\n \nI've had several people mention to me that
  they'd like to take an Intro yoga class\, but feel intimidated or can't se
 em to get there on their own. I'll be going to the Intro classes this month
  at the studio where I attend classes. You're welcome to join me! \n\n \nTh
 ese run in 4-week cycles and Oct. 7 starts the next cycle\, but you can act
 ually come to any of the intro classes (no prerequisites). The main differe
 nce between these and the other classes is that they will go at a slower pa
 ce and will tend to have more explanation about the basics and fundamentals
  of postures\, as well as breathing and meditation. \n\n \nYoga has many be
 nefits - mental\, physical\, emotional\, spiritual. You can regain flexibil
 ity\, build strength\, re-balance your body\, etc.\, and learn to push the 
 edge on your limits\, which can become a spiritual practice in itself - a p
 ath to awareness and self-realization. How so? When you go deeper in a pose
  and your body starts to give fight or flight responses even though there i
 s no real danger\, do you give in to those impulses or can you keep your br
 eath even and steady?  Does your mind scatter and go into panic mode or can
  you stay present and focused on the pose? Are you in touch with your body 
 - can you distinguish between a lot of discomfort versus pain that signals 
 true danger? You are not your body or your impulses. You are not your thoug
 hts or your emotions. With practice\, you can improve your control and thus
  transform your mind and your body into powerful tools rather than identify
 ing with them. It's a lifetime practice.\n\n \nThe word yoga has many meani
 ngs and sayings associated with it. One of my favorites is: Yoga is the pra
 ctice of being present. \n\n \nWhen: Every Tuesday evening in October\, 7:1
 5PM. Class starts at 7:30PM\, but come early to check in to class and settl
 e in.\nWhere: Moksha Riverwest - 700 N Carpenter St\, 2nd floor\nWho: Yoga 
 is for everyone! (Pssst - you don't have to be flexible to practice yoga. T
 hat's one of the many reasons to practice it!)\n \n\nUpcoming Dates:\nOctob

SUMMARY:Book Club:  'Three Cups of Tea'
DESCRIPTION:Law of Attraction Meetups > Positive Focus - Living Life Fulfil
 led\n\nWhat: Positive Focus Book Club\nWhen: 1st and 3rd Thursday's from 7:
 00 - 8:30 pm\nWhere: My loft\nWhy: Because we enjoy gathering to talk about
  uplifting\, inspirational books and topics. \n\nJoin us for our first vent
 ure into a story based book. This true story is about one man's mission to 
 promote peace\, one school at a time. \n\nRead through chapter 10 (page 124
 ).\n\nClick HERE to order book. \n  \nA love offering of $5 is appreciated.
  \n  \nBook Description:   \nSome failures lead to phenomenal successes\, a
 nd this American nurse's unsuccessful attempt to climb K2\, the world's sec
 ond tallest mountain\, is one of them. Dangerously ill when he finished his
  climb in 1993\, Mortenson was sheltered for seven weeks by the small Pakis
 tani village of Korphe\; in return\, he promised to build the impoverished 
 town's first school\, a project that grew into the Central Asia Institute\,
  which has since constructed more than 50 schools across rural Pakistan and
  Afghanistan. Coauthor Relin recounts Mortenson's efforts in fascinating de
 tail\, presenting compelling portraits of the village elders\, con artists\
 , philanthropists\, mujahideen\, Taliban officials\, ambitious school girls
  and upright Muslims Mortenson met along the way. As the book moves into th
 e post-9/11 world\, Mortenson and Relin argue that the United States must f
 ight Islamic extremism in the region through collaborative efforts to allev
 iate poverty and improve access to education\, especially for girls. Captiv
 ating and suspenseful\, with engrossing accounts of both hostilities and un
 likely friendships\, this book will win many readers' hearts. \n\nThree Cup
 s of Tea Website \n\nBOOK CLUB: Although we focus on one book at a time\, o
 ur conversations always allow other teachers to be brought into the mix and
  it's quite fun. \n\nTransportation: \nMap quest  \n\nThere is some street 
 parking on Crosby\, Oak\, Kingsbury\, and Larrabee. There is also a public 
 garage attached to my building for $8 after 5 pm.   \n\nFor public transpor
 tation options go to: trip planner\n\nChicago\, IL  60610 - USA\n\nThursday

SUMMARY:An evening to unwind with Reflexology
DESCRIPTION:Law of Attraction Meetups > Positive Focus - Living Life Fulfil
 led\n\nJoin Kirsten as she hosts "An Evening to Unwind through Reflexology"
  with Ryan Lee.\n\nBeginning at: 6:30\nCost: $15 for first 15 minutes\, $10
  for additional 15 minute increments. First 15 minutes must be paid for in 
 advance to book Ryan's evening with us.\n\n \nAbout reflexology: Reflexolog
 y is a safe\, natural\, and enjoyable way to reduce stress\, relax deeply\,
  and encourage the body's natural healing ability. Practitioners of reflexo
 logy perceive the body and life of their clients holistically:  everything 
 is interconnected. \n\nThrough the feet\, reflexologists use a combination 
 of direct pressure\, holding\, and massage techniques to relax\, energize\,
  and rebalance the entire body/mind.  \n\nReflexology also increases circul
 ation\, helps break up and flush calcium deposits that have settled in the 
 feet (crunchies)\, loosen muscle adhesions\, and\, of course\, it just feel
 s amazing.\n\nReflexology is not only relaxing\, but therapeutic as well.  
 A skilled practitioner must find the subtle balance between 'feel good' foo
 t massage\, and deeper 'oh thats sore!' therapeutic work.  It truly is a he
 aling art\, and one that has been taught\, practiced\, and enjoyed for thou
 sands of years.\n\nTraditional Japanese Reflexology also works with 'chi'\,
  the eastern concept of energy or life force.  In a reflexology session\, p
 ractitioners are also moving chi\, mentally and physically\, through your b
 ody to encourage deeper levels of balance\, relaxation\, and health.\n\nFor
  more information on Ryan\, CLICK HERE.\n\nStay in the Know: by sending us 
 your email addresses to receive Monday’s “This Week @ PF." \n\nChange for C
 harity: October we are collecting for Gilda's Club of Chicago. Feel free to
  share your change for charity at any of our October events.\n\nPublic Tran

SUMMARY:Intro to Yoga - anyone\, anyone?
DESCRIPTION:Law of Attraction Meetups > Positive Focus - Living Life Fulfil
 led\n\nHave you wanted to try a yoga class\, but didn't want to go alone? O
 r are you finding it hard to motivate yourself to go? \n \nI've had several
  people mention to me that they'd like to take an Intro yoga class\, but fe
 el intimidated or can't seem to get there on their own. I'll be going to th
 e Intro classes this month at the studio where I attend classes. You're wel
 come to join me! \n \nThese run in 4-week cycles and Oct. 7 starts the next
  cycle\, but you can actually come to any of the intro classes (no prerequi
 sites). The main difference between these and the other classes is that the
 y will go at a slower pace and will tend to have more explanation about the
  basics and fundamentals of postures\, as well as breathing and meditation.
  \n \nYoga has many benefits - mental\, physical\, emotional\, spiritual. Y
 ou can regain flexibility\, build strength\, re-balance your body\, etc.\, 
 and learn to push the edge on your limits\, which can become a spiritual pr
 actice in itself - a path to awareness and self-realization. How so? When y
 ou go deeper in a pose and your body starts to give fight or flight respons
 es even though there is no real danger\, do you give in to those impulses o
 r can you keep your breath even and steady?  Does your mind scatter and go 
 into panic mode or can you stay present and focused on the pose? Are you in
  touch with your body - can you distinguish between a lot of discomfort ver
 sus pain that signals true danger? You are not your body or your impulses. 
 You are not your thoughts or your emotions. With practice\, you can improve
  your control and thus transform your mind and your body into powerful tool
 s rather than identifying with them. It's a lifetime practice.\n \nThe word
  yoga has many meanings and sayings associated with it. One of my favorites
  is: Yoga is the practice of being present. \n \nWhen: Every Tuesday evenin
 g in October\, 7:15PM. Class starts at 7:30PM\, but come early to check in 
 to class and settle in.\nWhere: Moksha Riverwest - 700 N Carpenter St\, 2nd
  floor\nWho: Yoga is for everyone! (Pssst - you don't have to be flexible t
 o practice yoga. That's one of the many reasons to practice it!)\n \nUpcomi
 ng Dates:\nOctober 7\, 14\, 21\, 28\n \nFor more information about the Intr
 o Yoga classes: http://www.mokshayoga.com/introtoyogarw.html\n \nSee http:/
 /www.mokshayoga.com/classfees.html for Drop-in and class package deals. \n 
    (Hint - The Intro package is the best deal and the other packages are ch
 eaper online.)\n \nMats and props are all available at the back of the clas
 sroom\, if you need. Just wear comfortable workout clothes - restrooms and 
 changing rooms are available. Bring a towel if you need.\n \nParking: Stree
 t parking is available\n \nPublic Transportation: http://tripsweb.rtachicag

  South on Milwaukee and West on Carpenter.\n \nChange for Charity In Octobe

SUMMARY:Intro to Yoga - anyone\, anyone?
DESCRIPTION:Law of Attraction Meetups > Positive Focus - Living Life Fulfil
 led\n\nHave you wanted to try a yoga class\, but didn't want to go alone? O
 r are you finding it hard to motivate yourself to go? \n \nI've had several
  people mention to me that they'd like to take an Intro yoga class\, but fe
 el intimidated or can't seem to get there on their own. I'll be going to th
 e Intro classes this month at the studio where I attend classes. You're wel
 come to join me! \n \nThese run in 4-week cycles and Oct. 7 starts the next
  cycle\, but you can actually come to any of the intro classes (no prerequi
 sites). The main difference between these and the other classes is that the
 y will go at a slower pace and will tend to have more explanation about the
  basics and fundamentals of postures\, as well as breathing and meditation.
  \n \nYoga has many benefits - mental\, physical\, emotional\, spiritual. Y
 ou can regain flexibility\, build strength\, re-balance your body\, etc.\, 
 and learn to push the edge on your limits\, which can become a spiritual pr
 actice in itself - a path to awareness and self-realization. How so? When y
 ou go deeper in a pose and your body starts to give fight or flight respons
 es even though there is no real danger\, do you give in to those impulses o
 r can you keep your breath even and steady?  Does your mind scatter and go 
 into panic mode or can you stay present and focused on the pose? Are you in
  touch with your body - can you distinguish between a lot of discomfort ver
 sus pain that signals true danger? You are not your body or your impulses. 
 You are not your thoughts or your emotions. With practice\, you can improve
  your control and thus transform your mind and your body into powerful tool
 s rather than identifying with them. It's a lifetime practice.\n \nThe word
  yoga has many meanings and sayings associated with it. One of my favorites
  is: Yoga is the practice of being present. \n \nWhen: Every Tuesday evenin
 g in October\, 7:15PM. Class starts at 7:30PM\, but come early to check in 
 to class and settle in.\nWhere: Moksha Riverwest - 700 N Carpenter St\, 2nd
  floor\nWho: Yoga is for everyone! (Pssst - you don't have to be flexible t
 o practice yoga. That's one of the many reasons to practice it!)\n \nUpcomi
 ng Dates:\nOctober 7\, 14\, 21\, 28\n \nFor more information about the Intr
 o Yoga classes: http://www.mokshayoga.com/introtoyogarw.html\n \nSee http:/
 /www.mokshayoga.com/classfees.html for Drop-in and class package deals. \n 
    (Hint - The Intro package is the best deal and the other packages are ch
 eaper online.)\n \nMats and props are all available at the back of the clas
 sroom\, if you need. Just wear comfortable workout clothes - restrooms and 
 changing rooms are available. Bring a towel if you need.\n \nParking: Stree
 t parking is available\n \nPublic Transportation: http://tripsweb.rtachicag
 o.com/\nIf you're taking the 'L' - take the Blue line to Chicago stop. Walk
  South on Milwaukee and West on Carpenter.\n \nChange for Charity In Octobe
 r\, PF Gives Back will honor Gilda's Club Chicago. Gilda's Club Chicago is 
 a support community for men\, women and children living with cancer\, and f
 amilies and friends. They offer a place where members join together to give
  and receive support. To learn more about Gilda's Club: http://www.gildascl

SUMMARY:Book Club:  'Three Cups of Tea'

 led\n\nWhat: Positive Focus Book Club\nWhen: 1st and 3rd Thursday's from 7:
 00 - 8:30 pm\nWhere: My loft\nWhy: Because we enjoy gathering to talk about
  uplifting\, inspirational books and topics. \n\nJoin us for our first vent
 ure into a story based book. This true story is about one man's mission to 
 promote peace\, one school at a time. \n\nRead through still to be determin
 ed from first session.\n\nClick HERE to order book. \n  \nA love offering o
 f $5 is appreciated. \n  \nBook Description:   \nSome failures lead to phen
 omenal successes\, and this American nurse's unsuccessful attempt to climb 
 K2\, the world's second tallest mountain\, is one of them. Dangerously ill 
 when he finished his climb in 1993\, Mortenson was sheltered for seven week
 s by the small Pakistani village of Korphe\; in return\, he promised to bui
 ld the impoverished town's first school\, a project that grew into the Cent
 ral Asia Institute\, which has since constructed more than 50 schools acros
 s rural Pakistan and Afghanistan. Coauthor Relin recounts Mortenson's effor
 ts in fascinating detail\, presenting compelling portraits of the village e
 lders\, con artists\, philanthropists\, mujahideen\, Taliban officials\, am
 bitious school girls and upright Muslims Mortenson met along the way. As th
 e book moves into the post-9/11 world\, Mortenson and Relin argue that the 
 United States must fight Islamic extremism in the region through collaborat
 ive efforts to alleviate poverty and improve access to education\, especial
 ly for girls. Captivating and suspenseful\, with engrossing accounts of bot
 h hostilities and unlikely friendships\, this book will win many readers' h
 earts. \n\nThree Cups of Tea Website \n\nBOOK CLUB: Although we focus on on
 e book at a time\, our conversations always allow other teachers to be brou
 ght into the mix and it's quite fun. \n\nTransportation: \nMap quest  \n\nT

SUMMARY:Book Club:  'Three Cups of Tea'
DESCRIPTION:Law of Attraction Meetups > Positive Focus - Living Life Fulfil
 led\n\nWhat: Positive Focus Book Club\nWhen: 1st and 3rd Thursday's from 7:
 00 - 8:30 pm\nWhere: My loft\nWhy: Because we enjoy gathering to talk about
  uplifting\, inspirational books and topics. \n\nJoin us for our first vent
 ure into a story based book. This true story is about one man's mission to 
 promote peace\, one school at a time. \n\nRead through still to be determin
 ed from first session.\n\nClick HERE to order book. \n  \nA love offering o
 f $5 is appreciated. \n  \nBook Description:   \nSome failures lead to phen
 omenal successes\, and this American nurse's unsuccessful attempt to climb 
 K2\, the world's second tallest mountain\, is one of them. Dangerously ill 
 when he finished his climb in 1993\, Mortenson was sheltered for seven week
 s by the small Pakistani village of Korphe\; in return\, he promised to bui
 ld the impoverished town's first school\, a project that grew into the Cent
 ral Asia Institute\, which has since constructed more than 50 schools acros
 s rural Pakistan and Afghanistan. Coauthor Relin recounts Mortenson's effor
 ts in fascinating detail\, presenting compelling portraits of the village e
 lders\, con artists\, philanthropists\, mujahideen\, Taliban officials\, am
 bitious school girls and upright Muslims Mortenson met along the way. As th
 e book moves into the post-9/11 world\, Mortenson and Relin argue that the 
 United States must fight Islamic extremism in the region through collaborat
 ive efforts to alleviate poverty and improve access to education\, especial
 ly for girls. Captivating and suspenseful\, with engrossing accounts of bot
 h hostilities and unlikely friendships\, this book will win many readers' h
 earts. \n\nThree Cups of Tea Website \n\nBOOK CLUB: Although we focus on on
 e book at a time\, our conversations always allow other teachers to be brou
 ght into the mix and it's quite fun. \n\nTransportation: \nMap quest  \n\nT
 here is some street parking on Crosby\, Oak\, Kingsbury\, and Larrabee. The
 re is also a public garage attached to my building for $8 after 5 pm.   \n\

SUMMARY:Kirtan w Devi2000
DESCRIPTION:Law of Attraction Meetups > Positive Focus - Living Life Fulfil
 led\n\nThey have some great musicians and singers. I go whenever I can and 
 you all are welcome to join me: http://www.mokshayoga.com/events/devi2000.h
 tml.\n \nHere's the description from the website:\nKirtan comes from the Sa
 nskrit word for singing\, and is as much a part of yoga as are stretching p
 ostures\, meditation and breathing. It is a fusion of sounds\, from the ref
 lective drones of India to the upbeat lilt of reggae to electrifying melodi
 es with a modern flair. Kirtan removes energy blocks\, heals the spirit at 
 deep levels\, and allows for a heightened sense of awareness.\n\nDevi 2000 
 is Chicago's premier kirtan group\, central to a vibrant chanting scene wit
 h monthly performances at Moksha Yoga Center. Deep reverence\, a sense of r
 itual\, and ecstatic peaks of singing and dancing are the vibe at a Devi 20
 00 kirtan.\n\nIt says it starts at 7:30PM\, but often they don't really sta
 rt until 8PM\, $10 at the door. It usually lasts until 9:30PM or so.\n\nChi
