Dahn Yoga, Low Cholesterol Diet

My workshops and classes at the Dahn Yoga studio have changed my life for the better – physically, mentally and spiritually.
After many years of going to the gym regularly, I was looking for something more than just exercising my body. I was ready to change my mind and heart, and to turn my exercise time into something spiritual.
I signed up for a three-month trial membership at the Dahn Yoga Center last August. Quickly, despite my demanding schedule, it has become a three-times-a-week staple that I can’t imagine living without.
The benefits from Dahn yoga have come both slowly and fast and furious. Slowly my flexibility has improved. I feel younger than when I walked in eight months ago. I can stretch in ways I haven’t in years. My arthritis doesn’t restrict me as it once did.
Prior to Dahn, my physician had warned me about my cholesterol level. I tried exercise and diet. No change. Then, a physical four months into Dahn showed my cholesterol had come down significantly – a result my workouts at the gym hadn’t been able to accomplish, even when accompanied by a low cholesterol diet. Clearly, the stress-reducing effects of Dahn were working!
I am a writer and editor, and a wife and mother, so I have lots of stress. My ten-year-old son noticed immediately a change in me when I started going to Dahn Toga classes. “You seem brighter, Mom, more calm.” And when I lost my temper, he would pipe up, “Remember your yoga, Mom!” And he was right. Dahn Yoga has helped me to change my energy. After each class, I am literally vibrating on a higher level – calmer, happier and refreshed! What more could I ask? This is a program for life!
