Ellyn has been working with Young Living Essential Oils for 14 years. Essential oils are known as nature's living energy and are the natural, aromatic volatile liquids found in shrubs, flowers, trees, roots, bushes, and seeds. While essential oils often have a pleasant aroma, their chemical makeup is complex and their benefits vast-which make them much more than something that simply smells good. Inhaling essential oils heightens the senses and can trigger numerous desired responses in the body. Many essential oils can be massaged into the skin and can provide many healthy benefits such as relaxation, focus, and digestive wellness. Take a moment to look at the Young Living link now. Give the gift of essence to friends and family as well as yourself. Diffuse throughout your home for easier breathing. Use for eco-cleaning while enjoying wholesale pricing, too!
Yoga in Sanskrit, means 'union', describing a means for the Self to reunite with the Whole. Kundalini Yoga is known as the 'Yoga of Awareness'. It is the means by which we raise our consciousness and transform our heightened spiritual awareness into constructive action. It is a powerful, transformative, spiritual technology; fast, focused, and effective. It is our latent spiritual potential, a force to be awakened. Attempting or achieving this process is 'raising Kundalini.' Bringing that awareness back down and applying it in the everyday world for the greater good is the Kundalini journey.
Kundalini is known as the nerve of the soul. If this is awakened, your soul is awakened. Kundalini classes included asanas (postures), pranayama (breath patterns), mudras (specific hand positions), and mantra, (creative projection of the mind through sound).

In the last seven years Ellyn has dedicated herself to improving the capacity of the mind through yoga, meditation and vibrational healing through sound and mantra. A pilgrimage to India through Right Sharing of World Resources in February of 2005 broadened her knowledge of different cultures and forms of spiritual practice and meditation. It is Ellyn's belief that even though yoga is not a religion, it can expand our minds and bodies to our infinite potential, spiritual capacity and inner consciousness.
